    I thought Peter Reid did a good job for us at the time. There aren't many players that get sacked as a manager then gets to play top level football again. Open for suggestions on others

    Listing Benali shows how far we have come in quality, but what a whole hearted player. You can't help not being a football genius, but Benali did all he could with what he had.

    Hang on..? Have I got the measure of this thread..? Older players..?

    Kachloul was 25 or 26 when we signed him. Ruddock was 21-22. Benali was at Saints from birth.

    I thought this was about Saints signing older players, that is, ones clearly past 30 at the time.

    Like Frank Worthington, aged 35 at the time, and still a superb player.

    EDIT: oops, already suggested by Chilco.
