Just looked him up. How the hell did that one come about back in the day? Played for some randomly exotic but small clubs prior to Ipswich with a pretty rubbish goal scoring record.
We were desperate in December 1996. Ian Marshall had left, the goals had dried up, Burley was hanging onto his job and the alternatives were Gerry Creaney and Neil Gregory.
We must've had a different scouting system back then I think and we'd always get unheard of people from abroad on trial - I used to spend hundreds on Soccerline listening to the latest person coming in - usually an Icelander or someone, who never went on to anything.
I mentioned Hai Ngoc Tran on another thread as someone who I remember hearing about - he randomly turned up in the UEFA Cup on tv one year so he must've ended up decent. There are loads more.
