Now, if you love sporting nostalgia and football transfers that almost happened and didn't happen in a world when we didn't have Fabrizio Romano and David Ornstein telling us about every transfer before it even happened.

Richie McCormack has decided to take a deep dive into all of it.

You know what, Rich?

You don't stay away for long.

Nathan Murphy back in Golf Weekly this week.

Was he?

And here you are back in OTB Towers talking to us again.

So you're speaking to a captive audience here.

I always think about these where you hear about Ronaldinho almost went out on loan at one point too.

I think Dunfermline had looked for him when he was at PSG and he was a very young player.

Obviously it didn't happen, but it's one of those kind of great what-ifs.

What would have happened if Ronaldinho rocked up in the Scottish Premiership?

They were double contracting at the time, weren't they?

That's remarkable.

It's a year and a bit out from the World Cup.

He's already pretty much the biggest young star in football at the time.

Stephen Shearer moved for like big money.

The other thing is, it's not that incredible really.

If you consider three seasons before that, Rangers are in the last four in the European Cup.

There's apparently the kind of wishes this happened when it comes to sliding doors as well.
