This thing about former players scoring against us is a bit doleful - though if I am going to chip in then the time Mike Elwiss did so was probably the worst for me though I wasn't there to see it. Thankfully the great Alex Dawson did not. Indeed the only time I can recall he played against us after he left was as centre half for Bury reserves back at our place after he had fallen out of favour with them. The centre forward for our reserves was the player we had signed to replace Dawson and who was proving a bit of a misfire for us Jimmy Forrest. A photo appeared in the LEP that showed the slightly built Forrest and the massive Dawson squaring up to each other - it was like a matador facing a bull.

Lots of players have misjudged the height of a ball and inadvertently glanced it backwards instead of heading it forwards. From what I recall Nugent looked mortified - which shows at least that he does have some loyalty.
How’s that got anything to do with our club ?

Lack of ambition pal
And I wouldn’t want him anyway. He’ll be on a huge wage and signing bonus being a free
I'm hearing that Rangers have offered £3m for DJ. To be paid in instalments over 4 years.. Like we'd really get the full amount of that? The can do one

Yeah, at least he didn't go round high-fiving the Fulham players.
Derby sign winger Ibe on two-year deal
Former Liverpool and Bournemouth winger Jordon Ibe joins Derby County on a two-year deal.

Well, at least he'll fit right in straight away...
BBC said:
He's shit anyway.
Ibe is shite.
Liverpool mugged Bournemouth off for £15m and then pulled an even better more audacious stunt in mugging Bournemouth off a 2nd time for even more money with Solanke at £19m!!
Maybe we should present Ben Davies to Bournemouth wearing a Liverpool shirt...

It’s the norm for a transfer fee to be spread out over the course of the player’s contract.
North End might always want to pay fees up front, on the rare occasion we do spend money, but that’s pretty uncommon nowadays.

Haha I work in Insurance and I can confirm that is not the only accident he’s had!Derby sign winger Ibe on two-year deal

we won’t sign anyone till we get a fee for at least one of our big four, and at the moment it’s looking like DJ and even then it will probably be someone who costs us next to nothing , or will accept low wages . Or we will get a player on loan but only if the parent club pay a big part of his wage . I have been resigned to this for ages . Trevors given up on trying to get into the Premiership on the cheap, so every year now it will be a damage limitation exercise, sell high when possible and invest as little into the squad . We will still not break our transfer record while Trevor owns the club.

Correct - however due to the financial position of Rangers & their historical problems we are reluctant to see any potential deal with an 'equal' spread of installments

McGeady would've been cheaper to get on a 'free' at the time a few seasons ago. Just because there is no transfer fee owed to a club does not mean it is a free transfer.
Plus, Ibe isn't what we need right now
