Absolutely agree. Went off sick when we were relegated. Couldn't play in the cold/wet/frost/rain etc. A big mouthed coward.

There have been many but yeah, he's the one that stands out for me. Strachen seemed to have him play anywhere, just to give him a game. I'm surprised he didn't play him in goal.

I'd go for Kevin Kyle, but Webster pushes him a lot for the title

edited after seeing Reece Browns name..


i cant cant chose between Kyle and Brown, Sunday morning pub players at best and only if the team was short of players

Started going to matches aged five in 72, we had a left back called Alan Dougdale. Couldn't run,turn,head or pass but the one thing guaranteed was he would kick the shit out of anything near him, a bad chopper Harris if you like. The old boys on the cop used to moan their tits off about him, happy days for a young lad.

Its fair to say the current squad has been disappointing, but for this weeks Cooks Question, i want to know who you think is the worst player ever to wear the sky blue shirt. Im quite intrigued to here the answers from some of the older supporters on this, as im sure they've seen some bloody awful players in their time. Also this week is our Valentines Day Special, so if you have a message for your sweetheart you want me to read out, leave it here and i'll shout it out on Thursday's show. There will also be a romantic soundtrack to boot. Sports Lounge kicks off at 10AM every Thursday on 98.6 Hillz FM, so tune in if you can. Thanks again for your brilliant support. PLAY UP SKY BLUES!

See Hobo and the Knight have named the first person to spring to mind when I saw the thread.

I remember taking a particular dislike to Wayne Turner.
Think I remember going to Oxford Utd and he scored an absolute blinder, but still got booed.

Was he really bad? Maybe it was the tache.

Dave Bowman.

Who tbf had a decent career, and also tbf I might be coloured by the fact he bogged off and we then improved, but to a small kid he was poor.

Good topic Liam, interesting to see the answers so far. For me, I think it would probably be McIndoe but we are probably a tad spoilt for choice in this area! At least he has gone on to be a good businessman since hanging up his boots.

Have always really hated Jordan Clarke, a few have forgotten what a shite player he has been over the years, the countless mistakes he made and being beaten by his man on every occasion.

Fabian Debec, Keith O'Neill spring to mind and surely some of the Pressley crop must be on his God awful list of signings. Finch, Webster, Slager, those strikers and midfielders he brought in this time last year.

May be worth doing this again next year if the same management team are in charge! The standard in League 2 will be even worse.

It's funny seeing all the old players from our time in the top division listed on this thread (I would add Kevin McDonald by the way), but they are all light years ahead of what we are watching now. I often see Julian Darby's name listed on this type of thread, yet he scored a fair few goals from midfield in a team that finished mid table and I've never quite got that opinion of him.

I somehow forgot about Big Trev. Placed a bet with my mate in the stand before ko at Watford away stating he would never score a goal during his spell with us. Ten minutes later £20 was down the toilet as he fumbled his one and only effort. Clumsy cock eyed oaf!

If only we'd won the cup when he bogged off!

He was frustrating though. Like so many of Atkinson's signings, the right player with the right pedigree but... utterly useless for us!

Totally agree. Darby was crap, but we were in the top-flight and he scored goals against good sides.

Even Paul Edwards is also harsh-he did get MOM v Liverpool once and Match Magazine gave him a 9! I think that places him above our entire current squad.

I've only been supporting for 20 years and the worst individual performance I've ever seen was Mikkel Bischoff vs Ipswich. He made Alan Lee look like George Weah, if i remember rightly he never played for the club again!

He was incedibly bad. I think his knees were shot and he went into semi-pro footy not long after his spell with us? Not quite as bad as Webster is, though!

Yes, I think you're right. It should never have actually stood! Bastard! I think we won 3-1, Doyle with a belter. Those were the days!! I'd have Micky Adams back now to be honest...

Darby was useless for large parts of the game but performed a role that was needed at the time and was one of the original box to box style player with plenty of energy, sadly, sometimes it was very misguided and wayward but would have him in that midfield now just for his goals and his energy, was one of the fittest around at the time.

Manset not mentioned ahead of GAyle and Benjamin.

Duggie was a centre half not a left 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".

Andy spring looked and played like a pub player and Withey I think was voted worst player for Bristol Rovers so carried on the good form.
Considering we paid a resonable fee Grimes was also dire.
More recently we had some French guy in the championship on loan I think who looked like he had never played before - Christian someone?
