the Sunnylaw Jag Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Peter Marinello Forgot all about him. He went from Hibs to Arsenal for £100,000 in 1970, which must be about 10 million in today's market. Never received a cap for Scotland, only played 38 times for Arsenal, so surely must be the head of the prospects that never made it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErsatzThistle Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Think he picked up 2 caps in the 90's when Brown took a B-ish style squad out to the Kirin cup, but remember, he was our first pick stricker for 2/3 full years (during a period Vogts had us playing a friendly match almost every week!) when we had nowhere else to turn to for a striker (Faddy had only just broken through, Kenny Miller could hardly stay fit more than 5 minutes during this period, and basically Crawford was scoring goals in the SPL). I wonder if anyone ever actually figured out how better off we'd have been during the Vogts years if he hadn't constantly indulged his fetish for seeing us regularly get beaten in friendly matches. It's just my opinion but I've said before, Vogts made a mistake in never giving Dougie Freedman (stupidly written off by Vogts after 45 against a sublime French team) and Robbie Winters (ridiculous snobbishness on Vogts part towards the Norwegian League) a few games to show what they could do. Of course Winters and Freedman were both very average players, nothing special, but they were in my opinion better players than his beloved Stevie Crawford and Kevin Kyle. Kyle and Crawford up front. Urrgh, the stuff of nightmares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slinky Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Alex Burke won the Scottish cup as a teenager with Killie in 1997. I honestly thought he was going to be the next big thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
