Who have Stoke signed directly from White Hart Lane?
Yesterday's programme said just one player, Gerry McMahon.
I find that incredible so was wondering if anyone can think of another player?! I've thought long and hard but can't come up with anyone- they may well be correct!!

I wouldn't go as far as to say he was shit, but he was certainly a major disappointment. There are a few similarities in his signing and when we acquired Martin Carruthers in that respect I suppose. Both never lived up to expectations.  |

Think we got Ray Evans from Fulham,he did play for spurs though. |

Thanks Rob, I was trying to be kind but I think your post gets straight to the heart of the matter! ;D |

I love new / young Stoke fans - Yes we did have a player called Tweed - Stephen Tweed - We signed him from a Greek side after he played a couple of games over their after moving from Hibs. This isnt meant to be condescending its just to an old twat like me Stephen Tweed playing for Stoke wasnt long ago and lives very fresh in the memory. You new / young supporters dont know youre born following this team and having not having to remember the likes of Stephen Tweed  |

McMahon scored in the final game at the Vic so has his little place in Stoke history. Still shit though. Ahh, Steven Tweed- who can forget that lovely handball against Vale? Cheers Dave |

How about Paul Allen ?
Know he went from West Ham to Spurs.
I cant remember if he left Spurs for Stoke or he moved on elsewhere before we signed him.

A few gone the other way though.
The late Ian Moores and Garth Crooks spring to mind.

Paul Stewart arrived on a free from Sunderland (I think) did once score for Spurs in an FA Cup final.

God Gerry "the Student" McMahon!!!!!! I'd managed to forget about him, until now. Thanks guys  God he was wank. He was frightened of his own shadow. He had the potential to be a good player but he just had no bollox what so ever. And to think we paid £500k for him  |
