Duggie was a centre half not a leftg back - and a real "old fashioned centre half". He'd last about two minutes these days before the red card would be brandished.

A few weeks back someone posted a link on here to an interview with him. He was reminiscing about a "reducer" (very hard tackle designed to intimidate the opponent - for our younger readers) he put in on Stan Bowles. Bowles went off for treatment and when he returned some minutes later went to Duggie and said "f**king hell Duggie, what did you do? It was like being hit by a Sherman tank".

Didn't call him Thugdale for nothing

He was incedibly bad. I think his knees were shot and he went into semi-pro footy not long after his spell with us?

Mikkel Bischoff only played a couple of games - if I remember correctly he played RB - for us. He returned to Denmark where he played four seasons as CB (his natural position) with the Danish champions Brondby.

For me Dimi Konstantsflopalot and Morten Hyldgaard.
And McSheffreys second stint.

Julian Darby scored 5 goals for us. FIVE.

Two of those were against Blackburn. Sky Showed the game live alongside footage of Ryan Gigg's living room where the Manure players were as a City win would give them the title.

I know Bellamy was a complete tosser but i thought he played well while he was here?

He was awful when he was here.

Bloody hell I forgot Evtoshuk. Another financial debacle from Richardson. We paid 750k for him for half a season and he left for free at the end as we couldnt get the work permits etc, so we couldnt even command a fee for him.

Another shocking player. However we didn't lose anything on him. He signed for 600k, made his debut against Man Utd (got subbed after about 20 mins), played another 5 games and then went back to his old club for 600k. I think he was only here for about 3 months. Was also the first Ukrainian to play in the Premier League.

I can't believe nobody has mentioned Seb Olzar!

Sandy Robertson. Having pulled out of a deal to sign Chris Marsden due to concerns about his fitness, Phil Neal plumped for he. He was to be our midfield maestro, pulling the strings and providing the flair and creativity we had been dismally lacking up to that point of the season (93-94). I remember when he signed, the local news report kept showing a clip of him scoring a spectacular overhead kick for Rangers, something that convinced me Neal had done the right thing in overlooking Marsden and signing Robertson instead......

We were 2-3 nil down to Newcastle away with Robertson on the bench. Cov fans were all calling for Robertson to be given a chance (The game was broadcast live at Highfield Rd on big screens). He duly came on and within minutes-indeed it may have been his first possession of the ball-he played a stray pass to a Newcastle midfielder, who put Ruel Fox in to slot home and put the game well and truly beyond reach.

Can't remember seeing him play for Cov again....

Elobarating on my post for Bellamy, pound for pound ,and taking into account ability and the actual fee involved, surely their cant be anyone remotely close to pushing this clown for the official rating of worst ever CCFC player ?

Much to the disgust of his father!

2 that effectively decided the 1994 title!

Also scored 2 at Upton Park in a 3-2 defeat. It was when West Ham were redeveloping and Cov fans were stuck in the top corner of the side stand. Didn't fancy forking out for crap seats, so we stood in the home terrace behind the goal. Got a bit carried away when he scored his second but managed to cover it up with pretending to gesticulate and shout abuse at Darby! :)
