| Carl Leaburn 18:51 - Apr 28 with 18242 views | qprxtc | I think he came on as a sub against Reading away, the first time we played at their current ground. Pretty sure it was injury time and he never touched the ball and the final whistle went soon after. His one and only first team appearance for Rangers. Pretty bloody short. Although he was quite tall. Peter Davidson didn’t last long. Neither, neither, nor. Any shorter? [Post edited 28 Apr 18:52]

| Carl Leaburn on 18:55 - Apr 29 by PeterHucker | Me too. Probably the only time a trialist got his own chant.... Just one Massimo Give it to me On a free transfer From Italy We sang it a lot at that Brentford friendly. He looked like he could've been a good signing but the owners at the time (Thompson?) baulked at the price & recalled a past-his-best Simon Barker (he'd been on trial or loan somewhere else I think) |
wasnt he the one alan mac fell out with big time ? think macca may have landed a punch or two on him during pre season , never to be seen again |  |

I'm sure he was involved for a game at Port Vale I saw. |  |

There was an amazing story did the rounds about him in Covid times. I can't quite remember the details but he only officially joined us on like the 17th and the country went into lockdown on the 20th. We hadn't put the paperwork through or something so when we went to furlough him the government turned round and asked "who's he?" |  | |  |

| Carl Leaburn on 16:07 - Apr 30 with 2365 views | BAWHoops | What about Sammy Youssouf, signed because he was Marc Nygaard's mate. According to wikipedia he played 6 times for us. Also shout out to Marcin Kus who was part of that odd game up at Leeds |  |

I did mention him early in the thread, his name immediately sprung to mind! |  | |  |
| Carl Leaburn on 11:46 - May 1 with 1743 views | Wilkinswatercarrier | A bit controversial this one, but I think Justin Channing also deserves a special mention. 7 years and 55 appearances. So a mere 7 or 8 appearances per season. He did however score 5 goals, which makes he much more prolific than Charlie Kelman was for us and we flogged him for £4m. |  |

I may be misremembering, but I feel like Chris Plummer had a similar appearance record? |  |

| Carl Leaburn on 23:27 - May 1 with 1490 views | numptydumpty | A RedKrapp special signing was Modibo Maiga. I think he was meant to be a centre forward, he came on as sub in a home game and got a goal to equalise at 3 - 3 on his debut and then had seven random mini appearances showing zero ability, intent, or skill and that was that. West Ham had decided he was awful and so they picked up the phone to ducking and diving wheeler dealer ex hammer and the bloke got out a cheque book and signed up this total dud. Modibo Maiga -Legend !! [Post edited 1 May 23:28]

| Carl Leaburn on 12:52 - May 3 with 1150 views | DannyPaddox | Scott Rene Mullholland Appearances 1 To be more precise his one appearance was 21 minutes plus what ever time was added on that April evening in Burnley, 2005. Like Richard Pacquette he later played for Thamesmead Town. The club, sadly, folded in 2018. Probably worthy of its own thread but apparently Thamesmead Town’s mascot was Tommy The Thamesmead Toad. Tommy was a 6-foot-tall green toad, dressed in the Thamesmead Town kit. There appears to be no known photographic evidence of Tommy on the internet. |  | |  |
