Michael McIndoe tore us to shreds every time he played against us, especially once for Bristol City at the CBS
Signed for us and was dross, then scammed half the squad out of their savings
i do - you are right he was dreadful. It was like he had a live hand grenade at his feet when he had the ball. IIRC he was highly rated at Crewe as well - not sure what happened when he moved to us.Not overrated but useless. Paul Edwards looked petrified every time the ball got near him. I remember Oggy giving him hell on the pitch. Anyone remember him?
Evo - I've got a pair of his size 11 boots in my loft - dm me if you're interested. Obviously the shirt (see avatar) gets slept in every night, so isn't for sale)Max biamou

I have no real recollection of O'Neill as a player (which tells you something in itself), but he wasn't that much, was he?In my mind we spent £900k on Drinkell and a few mil on O’Neil. Let’s be honest, both shite. Althogh I did see Drinkell score a couple of decent goals…vs Utd and…er…Grimsby. Who actually think would’ve been half decent back then.
You’re right! The internet tells me we paid £1mil for O’Neill. Drinkell wins this round!I have no real recollection of O'Neill as a player (which tells you something in itself), but he wasn't that much, was he?
Yeah, overhead kick then a drive from outside the area! Shame we were four down, mind.I remember that game for one of the worst tackles I've ever seen when Robson absolutely did Speedie.
Agreed. He was awful! Mad that he was ever at Liverpool at that time.You’re right! The internet tells me we paid £1mil for O’Neill. Drinkell wins this round!
Yeah his goal against Utd was a belter but meaningless.
I’m not sure I remember the Speedie challenge - I’ll see if I can jog my memory - but I do have it in my mind that Robson was a dirty player so that must’ve come from somewhere.
In my efforts to think of worse signings/overrated players…he must’ve been rated at some point but when we got the arthritic ex-Liverpool player Kevin Macdonald. He could’nt move!
Behave.Magnus Hedman - big bloke shit keeper.
Nii Lamptey… that’s probably enough!
Jake Bidwell is one of our most overrated players of recent times.

2006 Kevin Kyle 600k from Sunderland where he had been their leading scorer.
3 years later he had scored the grand total of 5 goals before leaving on a free.
one of the worst strikers Ive ever seen play for us
I remember at the time, before he hit his ridiculous form that fans were spitting feathers we were not starting him over McNulty, just shows how much fans really know deep down and what we do not see behind closed doors doesn't itJordan Ponticelli

He should have kicked on when he got into the team but for whatever reason didn't
He's at Tamworth now scored his first goal the other night
He was strongly disliked, and my own memory of him is that he was dross. But look back at highlights of games from that time, and he's often heavily involved in the good stuff we did.Guy we had from villa Richardson?
Overrated by whom? He's just recognised for what he is, a solid left back / wing back.
yea quite a few mentioned that weren't actually rated highly by many.

He was clearly overrated when we bought him. But your right it didnt take the fans long to work its was totally overrated based on one good season at Sunderland. Think the Mackems got their own back for BristolHe was not overrated though was he? He was constantly barracked while he was here.
Fuck off!!! He was great!!Phil Babb
He was outstanding for us hence Liverpool buying himPhil Babb

I remember the game he got red carded and the whole ground chanting 'OFF OFF OFF' as the ref reached for his pocketIm sure in a poll 90% of fans didn’t want him to sign!
Who are the most underrated players during their time here, who went onto better things than they were given credit for than when here?
