He was terrible for us, I was so buzzing when we'd signed him from luton. What the hell happened? Did he have a bust up with coxy after/during the 4-1 Gateshead defeat and then never played again or something?

You’re joking.

No. He was a decent player and deserved many mam of the match accolades but lots of our fans thought he was the non league Cafu. Decent non league full back but not as good as many perceived = over rated..
IMHO


i dont think people thought that imo. He was just a player that loved to get stuck in and gave his all. Technically, he was a bit poor

On reflection I seem to remember Waddle being a good player.
I think it might be Alan Kennedy who was pants.

Alan Kennedy was that pants he scored the winner in the old European Cup.

Now Keith Kennedy was a different story :lol:

Tim Sandercombe in goal.
Def left to right of Jeanin Chanot G Pilkington and Scott Gardner.
Midfield 3 of Gary Mills, James Baxendale and Jamie Hand.

Up front with Craig Dobson one side, Levi Porter the other, and Dominican (I think) international Anthony Robinson just running around cause nobody would pass to him!

Half the players being named in this thread were never rated in the first place, let alone overrated. They were certainly crap though :lol:

Agreed, it’s turned into a “crap 11” :lol:

Speaking of toes - Iffy Onuora. Thought he was going to be great, struggles with injury and for form and then went off and bagged loads of elsewhere.

Duffy and Perry must be the most inept pairing who came with great expectations.

I think they got more stick from their own supporters than they did from opposition fans. Seem to remember them physically fighting over who was going to take a penalty in one match.

We both were. It was Worksop's home game.
