    5/7/08 We signed Geovanni Deiberson Maurício Gómez. Seems a long time ago. It never worked out how we all really wanted it to but Hull City signed a Brazilian. Nothing but good memories of him.
    Always worth another look

    I still have a recording of that MOTD episode. Have to have a watch of it every now and then and it never fails to cheer me up. Brilliant memories!

    If fit, he should have been THE first name on the team sheet - then fit everyone else in around him.

    We were rubbish in that game, that free kick was the only decent thing we did, but it was still a brilliant day out.

    His problem was that he was never consistent enough. He could score the wonder goal but couldn't bang in many goals. After he left us he went to SJ and they got rid of him because although he could score some crazy goals he couldn't get a good total for even the MLS.

    He was the Andy Robertson of his time.

    the man was a genius, a class obove!!! The fact we played kilbane more shows brownies failings.

    Good player and top bloke, when he left didn`t he cancel his contract saving us any need for payouts or something like that ?

    He did indeed, he wrote off about £1.5m.

    11 from 60, but aye, he was great, if not a tad sulky and prone to disappear when a touch chilly. Imagine how bloody marvellous he would been on 11 from 18. <whistle>
