2nd spell would have been before he was released to sunderland. this current spell where he isn't upto par is his 3rd spell with the club :D

Vemund Brekke Skard (born September 11, 1981) is a professional footballer.

He signed his first professional contract having joined from Norwegian Second Division side Brumunddal FK in October 2005, where he played part-time whilst also training to be a teacher. He signed for Ipswich Town in 2005 but was released early in the 2006/2007 season after just three appearances for the club.

I am not sure how you can include either of these 2. Miller only appeared briefly and a lot of people thought he looked a very decent player. Whether you agree or not, I don't think his brief appearance could warrant a mention in a Town's Worst list.

As for Drobny, much like Mike Salmon who has been previously mentioned, how can you say he's in the Worst Town players section when he NEVER made an appearance???

They were also FREE transfers so it's not as though we lost any outlay on them either (barring salaries).

To be fair to Lee Bracey, he did put good crosses in for Richard Wright to catch in the warm up..

And he was a better summeriser than Bryan Knights...

I'd like to give notable mentions to Axeldahl and Holster....

He actually looked OK against Middlesbrough in the Cup, but was shocking against Grimsby that his career capitulated because of it.

:lol: :lol:
Mate, don;t wish to p*ss on your parade but did you actually watch Town between 1999-2004. Jermaine Wright must have played about 200 games in that period and was impressive in many of them.

He was one of our best three players during the season we finished 5th, alongside Stewart and Hreidarsson. Did you ever see his goals against Rotherham (35 yard volley off a corner kick)? His 40 yard strike against Millwall on New Years Day?

He wouldn't get into an all time Town XI by any means, but he was certainly a talented player. He also was very good during his last season at the club when we lost to West Ham in the play-offs.

If you want to talk about crap players then stick to Marco Holster, John Scales, David Kerslake, David Whyte and Ron Fearon.
