I remember when we were that abysmal..

What about that bloke we paid £5m for under keegan.I went to Preston pre season and he got a hat trick on his debut,
Then never heard of him again.Think he was an argie or Uruguayan?
Vuoso I think? From Uruguay, don't think he ever played a game for the first team did he?
 
My own personal low lights were sitting in the old North stand watching us lose at home to Bury,.. 0-1 if memory serves , and also, again in the bloody North stand, watching Jamie Pollock score the most horrendous own goal,… I think agains QPR.. Abject misery on a weekly basis it was in those days supporting City,… and then going into work to be mocked and abused by rags that didn’t even go to old toilet..Terrible times indeed..

Was he the one who had a great pre-season, and looked quality against Barca? If it is, he got injured in the warm up in the first or second game away at Villa, and that was it!

Quite funny looking at that and only 25 years later we have won 5 Prem leagues and 7 cups.
I make it maybe nine of those clubs are or have been in non-league since then. Quite a mad direction of travel compared to us

Don’t know how true but there was a story doing the rounds that he refused to attend the English lessons the club arranged for him because on arrival, he considered the language and people to be ‘vulgar’
His agent was the ex liverpool/boro striker David Hodgson. Keegan never did business with him ever again by all accounts

I went to a pre season at Bury where he played. He didn't score any.
