Another Branfoot bright idea, alongside Paul Moody

Branfoot obviously believed he'd hit a rich seam of talent in Scotland, who can forget his epic dips into the transfer market there and successes ?

Okay, so Derek Allen didn't work out, but don't forget Colin Cramb and Paul Sheerin.

Best of all I remember Ian Branfoot defending the transfer policy at a Radio Solent Fan Forum by pointing out he'd just signed  a young Scots lad from Reading, (Paul, or Gary Ferguson from recollection) for £20,000, and he was a prospect who we'd hear a lot about in the future. Think he disappeared without trace.

Ken Monkou aside IB's transfer record was pretty appalling.
