Over time the memory and mind play tricks on you and you forget how shit some of the players in our past really were cos we are looking at shite like below average al and diaby each week
From memory colin pates wasnt a great buy nor was tommy caton although I will also tip my hat off to whoever nominated kaba diawara cos he was shite In recent times, and I know he was only a loan signing, but for me there was nobody worse than the ox in the box baptista - sweet jesus this guy was utter ***** and yet he is still playing for brazil
Overall though it is very hard to say that this player or that player is worse than some of the signings that never ever seen game time
Oi don't knock Jimmy Carter, he scored two goals in my first ever football match! Although he did very little before and after that game against Southampton in 93!

In my time Pascal Cygan has to take the honour and is closely follwed by Mart Poom. Im trying to rack my brain but i cant remember in the past 10-12 years us having such average plaers as we do now.

Of all the players we have had, even in the last 10-12 years, you choose a guy who hardly played at all
At least Cygan somehow qualifies because he had enough games to ruin our lives.
My brother always slaggs of Ian Ure....me,well there are a few over the years i watched and just buried my head in my hands and cried''HOW THE FUCK CAN HE PLAY FOR US???''
Jeff Blockley,Geoff Barnett,Pat Howard so on and so on but the prize of worst player is IGOR STEPANOVS,he was SHIT!!!!!!! closely followed by Jeffers, and quite a few of those wankers in the team now.

Tommy Caton would put cart horses to shame, he was very, very shit indeed.
