" "Other clubs I've been at I've brought in free-transfers and they've gone on to better things. "The last one at Bradford was Jermaine Johnson who I brought in and he was transferred to Sheffield Wednesday for £300,000. "If you look at my history I have brought in players for nothing and they've gone on, and I hope that will continue."" Maybe someone should point the Darlo journalists towards his Swindon history? Title: Re: Todd Post by: Rich Pullen on Thursday, May 28, 2009, 14:33:25 Whoa, whoa, whoa - wait a minute. Are you seriously suggesting that Colin Todd's transfer record at Swindon Town was a failure? Lets have a looksy shall we?
Colin Todd & Swindon Town 01. Bart Griemink (124 league games - Southend on a free) 02. Juan Cobian (4 league games - the abyss) 03. Matt Hewlett (181 league games - Torquay on a free) 04. Danny Invincibile (128 league games - Kilmarnock on a free - he never did get that Aussie cap) 05. David Duke (204 league games - Darlington on a free) 06. Kim Heiselberg (1 league game - the abyss) 07. Antoine Van Der Linden (33 league games - BVO Emmen on a free) 08. Martin Williams (19 league games - Peterborough on a free) 09. Gary Alexander (£300,000 - sold a year later for £170,000) 10. Mark Robertson (Undisclosed - released on a free) 11. Marko Tuomela (loan - chortle) Hmm, you may have a point. :) Title: Re: Todd Post by: Batch on Thursday, May 28, 2009, 16:22:11 I thought Alexander was a King signing. Damn you memory and your tricks.
T*dd was by far the worst manager we have had since McMahon. Probably worse than him in some ways. Title: Re: Todd Post by: Rich Pullen on Thursday, May 28, 2009, 16:25:21 He was definately a Todd signing.
Title: Re: Todd Post by: Kinky Tom on Thursday, May 28, 2009, 16:26:27 I thought Alexander was a King signing. Damn you memory and your tricks. T*dd was by far the worst manager we have had since McMahon. Probably worse than him in some ways. King wanted Todd to sign Zamora for the £90,000 he had arranged with wovers, Todd, as manager, decided £300,000 for Alexander was the better deal... Title: Re: Todd Post by: reeves4england on Thursday, May 28, 2009, 20:56:03 We paid £300,000 for Alexander?!! Oh dear...
Title: Re: Todd Post by: Arriba on Thursday, May 28, 2009, 20:56:46 juan cobian on a 3 year contract says itall.
Title: Re: Todd Post by: Crozzer on Friday, May 29, 2009, 00:08:51 His name is BasTodd. Title: Re: Todd Post by: Gelbfüßler on Friday, May 29, 2009, 11:35:25 We paid £300,000 for Alexander?!! Oh dear... Getting £170,000 for him is bad enough! Title: Re: Todd Post by: Crozzer on Friday, July 3, 2009, 23:43:53 BasTodd signs Darlington's next manager. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/d/darlington/8078697.stm Title: Re: Todd Post by: Kinky Tom on Friday, July 3, 2009, 23:47:56 eurgh, what a pair...
Title: Re: Todd Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Friday, July 3, 2009, 23:51:33 We paid £300,000 for Alexander?!! Oh dear... Yup. The next big thing from West Ham. Think he managed 7 goals..... Title: Re: Todd Post by: Kinky Tom on Friday, July 3, 2009, 23:59:49 He might have done OK if his goal against 'boro first day of the season wasn't disallowed for as far as I can remember no reason.
We still should have signed Bobby Z though regardless. Title: Re: Todd Post by: Spencer_White on Saturday, July 4, 2009, 09:56:40 Colchester that was.
We were singing 'were goin up as fuckin champions' that day. We were just totally deluded and thought we were brilliant when in fact, we were rubbish. I miss that. Good spirit. |
