i remember Andy. Played a game of pool against him when he first joined and stayed in a hotel in First Avenue.
I was 6 when that happened, and in my childlike naivety I just presumed, mainly because it was my dream, that every player dreamt of playing for the Albion. I was awfully disappointed that Zidane traded in Juve for Real instead of a move to the south coast.
15 years later, quite drunk at the Battle, I got very emotional on his return. That for me, was the most excited I'd felt.
Whilst Vicente was wonderful for anyone who followed Spanish football at all, there were a lot of "if he's that good, why on earth is he signing for us" at the time.

Obvious choice is godlike Vicente, but for me it has to be Muzza part deux.
For comedy purposes, it has to be Locadia.

Alan Biley. (****ing useless)

The only player to come of the pitch with no mud on him.
Muzza signing for the second time.
I loved him the first time round, simply quality, so his return was a footballing dream come true.
Then he produced the good and got us promoted again.

Also LuaLua.
I remember as a kid being out with some mates on a bike ride around town when we came across a white Astra GTE stuffed into a telegraph pole. Steam and smoke pouring out and Alan Biley sitting on a nearby wall smoking a fag.
We asked him what happened and he just told us to **** off.
Mate said you're shit at football and driving then. We didn't hang around after that

Reading the back of the Argus on my paper round when at school the season I started going to Withdean, and then the evening it was confirmed he was returning 5 years ago.
Vicente a close third.

Gary Rowell - nice flicky hair and scored a few for the Mackems. Disappointing would be an understatement!

Barry Bridges. Unfortunately it didn't go as well as was expected. He was so far ahead of the Albion team at the time, they just weren't on his wavelength.
