calum10 - I thought forster was ok actually. He could definetly finish.

Mike 'The Pike' Salmon

and while on the topic, John Scales.

It's a shame Mark Fish has already been mentioned. I can't think of any other animals in names apart from those animals which live Bywater.

I don't want to nominate anyone for being a bit rubbish but I will go for:

Biggest waste of money:
Le Pen - was it 12 minutes?!
Sereni - good player. Daft fee and wages
Finidi George - see above!

Why did we bother? Waste of time:
Skard
Brittain
O'Callaghan

Did you ever see Clive Baker play. He was very good for Town. And Phil Parkes played about three games in the 90/91 season and was man of the match in two of them.

Geraint Williams couldn't pass but was a decent defensive midfielder for 6 seasons.

Finidi George was a very talented player who had three or four games that any past Town player would have been proud of and Sereni was an excellent shot-stopper.

Abbey never played a game for us! If you're including these people, how about Lee Bracey too?
Forster? Are you kidding?

Likewise, never played a first team game for us.

Yep, shocking! What about Ulrich Wilson or Andy Bernal?

O'Donnell - Agreed
Williams - He was never a spectacular player, but that wasn't his game and he was a very key player in midfield in my opinion, provided he had a creative player to lay the ball off to.
Pennyfather - Agreed
George - Agreed, wasted potential.
Sereni - Was not a bad player by any stretch of the imagination, but his attitude stunk.
Baker - You're kidding, right?
Parkes - You're kidding, right?
Steggles - Agreed.

Also, what about Tom Carson after his disastrous 1 and only appearance on loan in goal?

Marco Holster?
Vlado Bozinoski?
Gerry Creaney?
Neil Gregory?
Bobby Howe?
Marlon Harewood (thought he was sh*t for us)?
Earl Jean?

forster are you having a laugh? he was certainly sufficient and doesn't deserve a mention in the thread. also Horlock was a decent player on his day he got player of the month the first season with us.
