One of the biggest misses was not signing Martin Keown when we had the chance.

Did we have the chance ? Thought it was just a loan

Just to clear this up for the umpeth time, the Banks sold Saunders. The club was in the shit, and the bank (barclays I think) told them to sell someone to raise cash, Oxford got wind of it, and put in a stupid bid for Saunders, and to their amazement, Brighton accepted it, but it was only accepted because the banks had the Albion by the bollocks back then, nd they told us too...

From memory the Peruvians were Juan Carlos Oblitas who was a winger and Percy Rojas who was a midfielder.
Oblitas had been in Peru's 1978 World Cup squad and done well. I think Rojas came as part of the deal if we wanted Oblitas

Arsenal wanted £75k for Keown but we didnt have the money at the time.
the two Peruvians were recommended but turned out to be in their 40's I seem to recall
Rainer Bonhoff was certainly rumoured, but there again so was Johhny Repp.

Ardilles and Villa were supposed to have singed for us had we been promoted in 78. Spurs went up and they went there instead.

I was once in bed with a truly beautiful young woman who had been described as having "tits like tankshells". I grappled with them drukenly and we had a bit of a cuddle. In the morning she was off to leave, but i persuaded her to have a fry-up first, where i hungoverly said her new hairstyle was that of a 12-year old boy. I ended up going to her wedding, and now she's pregnant and living in Australia.
Not sure we were right for each other, but away she went and never to return. I'm over it now.

pretty sure we were close to signing George Best before he went to Bournemouth.Mullery could have had Didier Six at one point but dismissed him as a nobody - he went on to be a regular in the French national team alongside Rochteu & Platini.
