Do folk not remember https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haraldur_Ingólfsson? He did make 6 whole appearances for us in 1996-7. Pfft, call yourselves dandies.

I remember we had Haraldur Ingolfsson and also Hermann Hreidarsson on trial at the same time and Roy Aiken didn't think Hermann Hreidarsson was good enough ffs

I didn't remember that part! I did a quick search and found an interview with him:

Quote

“I was magnificent during that trial! We played two games, won both easily and I scored in the two wins.

“Aberdeen then offered me a contract. It was my first experience of a professional club and I loved the atmosphere around the place.

“Why did I not sign? They offered me a c*** contract. It was an absolute joke, really.

“You get a feeling if a club really wants you and that didn’t happen with Aberdeen.

“I knocked it back. I decided to see what else was out there and ended up signing for Crystal Palace. The rest is history.”

I imagine they censored "crap", but that's not what I read the first time

I remember a few mates went to watch that trial games and they said Hermann Hreidarsson looked really good.

I remember watching him when I was 10 at Easter Road, and realising even then that he was... limited.

I've spent many a year trying to forget about him and some of the other dross we had around that time.

Aye. Haraldur has defied repression though.
