Who was Town's best ever signing? Whether it be value for money, most profitable, longevity, productivity, whatever ... Who was a coup?

Don't know if he falls into this category, but Rob Page made an impact for a very short period, and really could have been. Think we were planning on offering him a contract, then Ternant stuck his two penneth in. If memory serves me well.  Huh

Either Jordan Rhodes or Marcus Stewart I'd say.

Great shout with Rob Page. Marcus Stewart is my favourite ever player. Sean Morrison on loan was a massive player for us & we wouldn't have got our of League 1 without him. Nico Vaesen was a shrewd bit of business too.

Jordan Rhodes for his goals and £8.4million

Super Stevie Harper....quality loan signing that's wasted his career in the reserves at Newcastle.

In my lifetime, definitely Jordan Rhodes. Sean Morrison close 2nd. I'd also shove in Efe Sodje the legend himself as a contender. Despite his red cards, was a big reason why we got promoted from league two. Was athletic, good defender and scored goals and even after he left us played for another 8 years.

Has to be Rhodes....for his goals as well as the money. We would never got out of League 1 if it wasn't for him.
Other good signings in my time following Town have to be Duncan Shearer, Iwan Roberts and even Rocket Ronnie Jepson.

Going back a bit further, to Christmas 1979. What a great prezzie Santa Buxton bought us.

Steve Kindon.

Denis Law got us our first set of floodlights.
Les Massie.
Colin Dobson and Jimmy Nicholson were vital in taking us to the top flight.
Malcolm Brown was a great guy and a great pro.
Rob Edwards.
Mark Robins ... and many, many more!
We've actually signed quite a few good guys over the years as well as our fair share of
'disappointments.'
