Percy Saul
Saul was a full-back who had impressed in two seasons at Plymouth Argyle featuring in 94 matches and scoring four goals from 1904-1906.

Kop Quote
Yeats' post-Houllier analysis"Technically, I thought Gerard was brilliant. Melwood, the training ground, is like a five-star hotel and it is all due to him. He said 'I want this there, that there, I want the swimming pool'. We've got the lot there but tactically, I just don't know. I went to a lot of the games at home and I wasn't too pleased at what I saw and obviously something had to happen."
