Did we lose the critical thinking aspect of our abilities mind.

Classic case of writing the script after the movie.

We do have a very good track record with players named Ian (Rush, St. John and the late, great Ian Ross), so we should buy him.
That’s my assessment anyway.

Liverpool have joined the race to sign River Plate’s 18-year-old Argentine winger Ian Subiabre. (Fichajes - in Spanish)

Also the club appearance record holder, Ian Callaghan!

That’s probably as good an analysis as not buying crocked Italians.

Yet it will get less mileage.

Three great Ians there but who is Ian Ross?

Now the issue has been raised, there is a shocking lack of top class footballing Ians and it’s weird that 3 of the top 4 were liverpool legends.

You have to be of a certain age like me, to remember Ian Ross.

An unsung hero, Ian Ross.

We all dream of a team of Ians?

I guess Wright is the fourth?
I remember Ian Storey Moore from the England 1970 squad?

Yeah, Wrighty.

Beyond that you’re stretching to people like Ians Harte, Woan, and Marshall. It’s not an illustrious group.

Storey-Moore didn’t go to that World Cup, nor make the standby/reserve list before it was whittled down to 22 players. His only cap was v Netherlands in the previous January and was injured before the tournament.

Ian Ross is probably the guy Hansen watched to hone his own game on… Cool as a cucumber when playing, and my Dad’s favourite Scotsman after Shankly :0)

What was the one coin you just couldn’t get to complete the collection ? Was it Burnley ?

I couldn’t get a Martin Peters for love or money

Oops … I was getting confused. I was talking about the FA Cup one they did.
