...but your mates think were total shit, would spend their whole time slagging him off while you would quietly 'rate' him.

Me- Tommy Butler (nothing to do with the fact he likes his arsehole tickled)

and Matty Robson

Darren Williams.

But I ended up thinking he was shite after all.

Martin Hollund

Tommy Butler

Lee Fitzpatrick

Stu Brightwell

Adam Boyd (even pre Boston)

David Foley (although many seem to think he is ok now)

I liked Fitzpatrick too, quick player with a good shot on him. As the Darlo keeper in 1999 ish found out.

Brightwell though?!?

i probably shouldn't admit it but I also always liked Ginger Ginola.....

Did he?

Chris Llewellyn

Im sure he would have been good enough under a decent manager

Brightwell wasn't given a fair chance in my opinion. I think we only had him for a year before he was released. He was tricky and pacy but very raw. We have retained far worse players......

istead

Jon daly

He goes into the Andy Mcavoy catergory of looking a prospect for about 10 minutes all told.
One trick pony, and the trick wasn't very good....

yeah but it was a 2 1/2 season 10 mins and every blody time......

You could say Istead never got a fair ctack of the whip in terms of starts, I would say he never warranted selection and was very lucky to clock up as many football league appearances as he did, albeit as a sub.

He was pap though wasn't he?

Michael Maidens and David Foley

They really didnt rate those two but i dont think they have been given a fair crack

me too

thats's three of you then including ECG

i happen to know that lord seaton had a soft spot for the ginger ginola

And me!!!!

Anthony Williams aswell!!!!

Obviously apart from Gustavo Di Lella who a lot didn't rate...

Craig Midgley, I thought he was the bees knees for some reason....

I liked Gustavo, I thought Mark Robinson was decent as well, no where near as bad as what people made out.

As for Midge, he was ok, nowt flash but I struggle to forgive him for that miss against Darlo in the play offs.......

John Gill
Bob Newton

That's it. Not a lot but what more do you need?

I used to think Sam Shilton was a canny player and also Darren Craddock

Darren Williams. Coolest man I've seen on the ball for a lot of years, always seemed to have that extra space under pressure. Suffered from Scott-itis though.

Sweeney! Gets slated around by where I stand but we miss him when he's not there.
Steve Howard would probably be the main one. He got hammered week after week but his slide tackles on a wet pitch made him my favourite player and must of terrified the opposition defenders.

Jon Daley

Kevin Johnson, when he was on his game. A good old fashioned winger, who could beat a man with pure skill and great first touch/ball control. Unfortunately those games were not too frequent in the end!!!!

cooper

i think they should try to sign marcus stewart he worked miracles at sunderland why cant he at pool

Another one for Ian Clark & Sam Shilton plus Roy Hogan, Alan Shoulder & Martin Hodge.

And the mask falls off.........

Pathetic.............

well he said himself he's thick and ugly and probably a gypo.....i added the last bit

John Brackstone... saw him as a youngster at Berwick pre-season and he looked like he had a lovely, calm and composed touch on him with a very sweet left foot......still think he might make it one day...

Malcolm Poskett...just for a few weeks every time he got the ball I thought he was just going to take on all eleven of the opposition and score......occasionally he nearly did.

Derrick Downing....for that goal against Ipswich.

pool? pool? ffs man, anyone who says that is obviously an imposter.

Steve Tupling and John Borthwick.
