An interesting, and impossible to answer, question. Coyne, Cooper, Russell, Graham, and a few others probably, all arrived at the end of their careers and contributed hugely. If you take into account signings from Junior / youth teams then Keith McRae, sold for £100k in the early seventies should be under consideration. .Joe Wark, signed from Blantyre Vic (I think) and an absolute club legend should be up there too. I could probably come up with several more given time. Money received shouldn't be the only consideration in this discussion.

Priestman for all round performance and lasting the full game where others played well sporadically but, understandably, faded.

Quite enjoyed that tonight, 2 cracking goals. Moorman was good. Euan Wilson gives me the fear whenever the balls goes anywhere near him, he just isnt very good. Once we get to know each other and get 3 to 4 new sigings then hopefully we can kick on!!!!!!!!!!! Mon the Well

Priestman was absolutely superb tonight , that boy will earn us serious money in the future. Elliott who.

It was a toss up between Fadinger and Priestman, both were excellent tonight and controlled midfield. Peach of a strike by Fadinger.

Longelo Just coming back from injury but once fully fit him and Williams could be great left side combination

All in all I was pretty happy with tonight, the defence looked a bit at sea occasionally but that was mainly due to being unfamiliar with each other. I could pick a few holes here and there but given that it was a scratch, and very young team, I was pretty happy with what I saw.

Me too, slow pace, slow reactions i was very surprised he started ahead of longelo.

Considering there were quite a few sub optimal factors going into this match I thought we performed well. Priestmann and Fadinger were excellent. Sharpness and fitness will increase and so will understanding between the players. We lacked a physical presence in general and a cutting edge up front but I'm sure we will address that and we were missing our four first team centre forwards tonight. Overall a decent win with improvements to come.

And someone mentioned, first half we put in a lot of crosses so perhaps Thor might be heading (sorry for bad pun) for a good season?

A win and 90 minutes under the belt that should see us that bit fitter and sharper for next week so all in all a decent nights work.

Priestman and Fadinger were, not surprisingly, stand outs. I went for WIlliams, just because he looked the part in his first competitive start. I think we have a footballer there.

That's true. A few quid in the bank and no more squinting to look at their numbers.

Fadinger for me.

Alfred seems to like a few more forward passes than Jens too. So that should be interesting. Early days, but it looks like we have a plan.

Taking all the outgoings, incomers, injuries, new manager, and the fact we're basically still in pre-season into account, that was a positive display and result.

Really tough choice. Priestman abd Williams really good and paulsen 2 key saves but I went for moorman for that strike

I went with Fadinger, mainly because I didn't spend the whole game wondering whether it was him or Watt that was on the ball. The choice was between him and Oscar but I was pretty impressed with Wilson, Reich, Moormann and Williams. No failures tonight at all, I'm looking forward to how this team develops.

Job done, thought all new signings contributed well. Style of play same but more long diagonal balls. I thought Williams done really well and him and Longelo could be good partnership but Wilson done just fine. Fadinger, Priestman, booth all done well. Said frustrates me so much, the talent there but decision making ends improved. A happy night though

Priestman got better and better as game went on.

Priestman by a distance

At least it looks like we plan to continue playing the same style of football as we did last season.

Oldest player in team was 25

Keeper looks fine once he has played a few games in the system he will settle in , with ball at his feet he looks fine and some nice outballs as well. Thought Wilson done ok as well I would keep him this season can only get fitter and better. Took our foot off the gas last 15mins and dropped back a bit.

Moormann, Reich and Williams all looked solid. Reich actually strolled it. Vogts took a while to warm up, but then skinned the RB a few times. Should have scored though. Thought Booth ws tidy enough and good lay-off for Fadinger's goal.
