IainIan Ferguson?
I was permanently banned for saying Prodan in a similar thread last year, still no idea whyEnd thread
Not having that anyway Iain wasn’t the best but he done ok and that game against Inter wow and won us a league cup final.Literally says Iain in the post
Kontermans goal against them gives him a pass.Sendeross, Barton, Konterman, Boyd second time around. From a purely financial perspective Prodan was bad, cost a lot of money for the time and never played a game.
Austria Vienna really mugged us off for Sebo too.
Edit: can’t believe I forgot to mention Ramsey, in terms of measuring the actual return against the expectation and excitement on signing there can’t be many worse. What an utter let down.
Was trying to remember Guivarch when reading this thread. World Cup winner with France the year we signed him, expectations high, but didn't really contribute much or look too interested from what I can recall.Seb Rozental and Stefan Guivarch. Neither really lived up to expectations.
If you’d watched him in the Euros after he‘d signed, you’d have been impressed.Konterman for £5.5m was an utter disgrace. Centre half that jumped out of tackles.
Yes but, nowhere near the worst.Aaron Ramsey. A disaster of a signing.
It’s a thread about opinions. Mine is that he was the worst.Yes but, nowhere near the worst.
I met him at gleneagles in the august when he’d went back to Killie and he had lost all the weight, must have had a gastric band fitted as he was a good 3 stone heavier in the may.It’s also quite hard to state how undisciplined you have to be, to reach that sort of shape during an active year in your career. Calorie wise, these boys are comfortably burning through 3500 calories a day at least during training days. Games, plenty more. To actually put weight on the way he did during a season is a mental level of food or alcohol intake for an athlete.
The Emerson Capucho Vanoli Ostenstad boy band won’t be topped for me.
Not sure why you’ve added the smiley because it was, is, no laughing matter.I just cannot see past how spending £millions to sign a confirmed, then currently performing drug abusing, alcoholic, overweight jakey could ever be described as anything other than the worst transfer ever, except maybe putting that piece of shite O’Halloran in our fine Royal Blue jersey.

Well, I actually thought that but also that it was a message board used for discussion so posted accordingly.It’s a thread about opinions. Mine is that he was the worst.
Probably because he past away mate.I was permanently banned for saying Prodan in a similar thread last year, still no idea why
Came here to say Ramsey. What a let down this guy was and that pathetic penalty in Seville will live with me for the rest of my life.Honestly never been left more disappointed with a signing than Aaron Ramsey. Fucking disaster.
For a permanent signing, the rolls Royce can’t be topped. We signed a literal alcoholic.
Did he not wipe out a thistle player with a wild elbow when he got done for pace? Sure that was the best bit of "defending" he ever did for us. Some pedigree as well and only 31, mental how quickly players can decline.It’s his performance in the Partick Thistle game for me, looked like he’d never seen a football before and has no idea how to be a defender
Before my time mate but I see that we bought him for £200k and sold him for £145k which isn’t much of a loss.Not having that anyway Iain wasn’t the best but he done ok and that game against Inter wow and won us a league cup final.
Not a fitba player, but I think one of our worst ever signings was Martin Bain
Strange answer. It wasnt Tore Andre Flo who set the transfer fee. The big man did well for us. 29 goals in 53 appearances (a lot as a sub isn’t too bad)Tore Andre Flo.
His goal return was good but was a terrible signing.
I honestly thought at the time we were brining in Christian Vieiri so I was against him from the start.
Not a loss at all really , good servant and winning the cup final for us and scoring 2 against Inter Milan I don’t get someone saying it was one of our worst transfers.Before my time mate but I see that we bought him for £200k and sold him for £145k which isn’t much of a loss.
Something was weird with this one, had a very decent record in Mexico which is a decent standard, 3 goals in 9 caps for the national team and came here looking like he'd won a competition. Although he did score one of the best finishes I've seen from a Rangers player, back heel flick at the near post against Thistle in the cupIan Black (still to this day can't believe he pulled on our shirt)
Barton (badly wanted him to be a success)
Eduardo Herrera. I'll qualify this one by saying he was a very good pro who respected the club and fans but, my God he was awful. I remember watching him warm up before the 5-5 game at Easter Road. He couldn't even kick the ball properly.
I remember sitting with mates watching Newcastle on TV and we were all laughing at just how bad Olivier Bernard was for a top level player. His arse was enormous, he had to do a three point turn to face another direction.
Nowhere near our worst signingWage thief at Ibrox right now,
Simpson,
garbage
Steven Pressley.Don't disagree with any mentioned so far but I'll add Faure and Pressley.
A kid who was signed on a free diagnosed with heart problems and is still at the Club v a multi-million pound signing with known knee problems who never played a game?Nnamdi Ofoborh has got to be up there if Prodan is
Can’t really agree with that. Ofoborh is a young boy who we paid a nominal fee for. Prodan was an experienced international who we paid quite a few million for if memory serves me right. Plus a hefty wage to fend off Spurs.Nnamdi Ofoborh has got to be up there if Prodan is
Only thing he was good at was drinking and playing pool,while claiming to be 'injured'.Seb Rozenthal.
Permanently crocked and would bang them in for fun on champ man while the real one gained squatters rights on the treatment table
So you’re bored and decided to cheer yourself up by depressing the rest of us?I'm bored so anyway lol just been sitting here thinking about our worst transfers ever? Who you got? Now mine will only be since I've been a Rangers fan so quite sure ya'll might offer different choices. From my perspective since I've been a fan these are my top three in no particular order:
Joey Barton-I thought at the time he still had something in the tank and could be quite good here. Yes, was a prick then as he has always been but I could overlook that. However, as well all know he was a total bust in more ways than one.
James Beattie-Past his best when we got him and it showed.
Carlos Pena-Horrific, simple enough.
