Inspired by the odd obscure player being dragged up in the foreign nations thread, I thought I'd start a thread about players who had brief or strange spells at City. Like George Weah - the kind of player whose tenure at the club seems like a distant dream. I'll start. Step forward....... Mr. Dalian Atkinson.

Beardsley is a good one - in the Kanchelskis bracket.

He put on a shirt, whether what he did could be counted as playing is another matter.

William Williams; for an hour against Ipswich at Portman Road during the 88-89 season. Then back to Stockport. Thanks Bill, it was emotional.

Martin O'Neill

My Dad used to work at the Lancashire Evening Post and came home one day with the biggest pile of b/w photos of footballers. In amongst them was a great pic of O'Neill playing in a City shirt.
