Step forward Robert Jarni, all though in his defence we never actually seen him play

Getting Allsop and Coulibaly from Bournemouth in the Wilson deal. Two atrocious players in one swoop.

A lot of just bad players instead of bad signing in here.
I'm going for Craig Belamy.
Not a bad player but was needed to replace Keane's goals, coming back from an injury and didn't do the job. Think he may still be our record signing and he was a major contribution towards our relegation with him failing to perform and being a disruptive influence in the dressing room. No way should that squad have been relegated.

Keith ONeil was one of our top earners
.He was always injured, 7 appearances in 2 years,he even was out injured once after breaking his hand on a fairground punch bag.

Sure I remember him coming on as a sub against Forest after a long while out. He then went off again injured a short while after!
That’s the issue with talking about the ‘worst signing’. If a useless player was signed for free, on little wages and only played a handful of times, they haven’t negatively affected us that much. I went for sherwood because he barely played but was on top wages. I can definitely see the reasoning behind Bellamy despite him being head and shoulders above Andre Wright.

As I've said elsewhere it depends on what's expected of them etc but in terms of actual ability the worst that stick in my mind are Alex Evtoshuk and Rafaele Nuzzo.

I seem to remember him coming on as a sub then pretty much just turning round and walking straight off again cos his hamstring went.

How can someone that played 1 cup game after coming on loan be our worst ever signing

If I had to I’d say the worst signing was Eastwood.
There were rumours about his fitness and attitude before he joined. The idiot Coleman said he wanted him on loan first and McCarthy refused knowing he’d lose the sale.
Coleman and the even bigger idiot Ranson then bought him with a 5 year contract basically blowing a large chunk of the budget on a known dud

He had him for a day then sold him for a profit, stick him in the greatest signing category!
