Mine was Lee Trundle.
Truthfully did his best work in league one/two but I always wanted to see him in a town Shirt. |  |

I always thought it was a shame we never got Billy Sharp when it was looking like a possibility. |  |

There’s a few:
Charlie Austin when at Swindon
David Nugent when at Bury
Billy Sharp when at Scunthorpe
Always felt like all three of these were destined to play for us at some point. |  | | |

Austin was the first one that came to mind. He was a really good Championship striker back then and had a decent Premier League career. |  | | |

Just seen he’s playing over in Brisbane now - not a bad way to see out his career.
Could probably have done a job in league one at 33 though. | | | |

At the time, when in the Prem, we were linked with the Belgium central midfielder from Anderlecht(?).
Over the years, there have been many though.
I posted about Lee Trundle a while back!

Eiður Guðjohnsen is one of the best players that I’ve seen play in the second tier. I think in our second season in the PL (in the summer) we were linked with him. Either his Chelsea career didn’t start that great or he wanted to leave Bolton - but I really wanted him to come here. The asking price was a lot but not completely over-the-top. |  | | |

Apart from those mentioned, Neil Danns and Albert Adomah were a couple who always seemed decent and playing at clubs around our standard who I thought mind wind up with us. |  |

Years ago, Ryan Harley at Exeter. Great player but didn't push on when he moved to Swansea |  |

There was a black left footed striker who played for Forest, among others, that I always liked the look of. He was massive and a bit of a battering ram, probably 2008-09 sort of era but he was around for a while. Can't remember his name for the life of me. |  |

Lallana and Lambert. It was so obvious they were going to the top and we looked very closely at both. |  | | |

Andy Reid and Matthew Etherington
Ricardo Fuller was one I was desperate for us to sign permanently, but our finances at the time made it impossible. He then went to Stoke, got them promoted and ended up playing 100+ games in the Prem with them |  |
