[Lickszz 10]

What about Andy Sinton?

[ironside_04 10]

I think the worst player wednesday has had was Colin West!!!(he was terrible).

My four penneth...

 

starting at the top

 

Dave Richards

David Pleat

 

Wim Jonk

Giles De Bilde

Simon Coleman (remember him?)

Andy Hinchcliffe

John Beswetherick

Lloyd Owusu

etc etc etc

 

I think Carbone and DiCanio cost the club virtually half of £20m we are in debt.. they cost around £6m combined, astronomical wages and both left at a fraction of the market value at that time.

Anyone of these as they were not good enough players at the level they were playing at, and we were paying them silly money to sit in the reserves or in the treatment table.

 

Jon Beswetherwick

Simon Donnelly

Phil O'Donnell

Philip Scott

Andy Hinchcliffe

Dan Petrescu

Marc Degryse

Gerald Sibon

Juan Cobian

Steve Nicol

Barry Horne

Gilles De Bilde

Klas Ingesson

Goce Sedloski

Andy Pearce

Simon Coleman

Patrick Blondeau

Ian Cranson

Craig Shakespeare

Mark Proctor

Tony Galvin

Larry May

Dave Bennett

Orlando Trustfull

Regi Blinker

Trond Soldvedt

Carlton Palmer (the third time)

 

I think I'll stop now, as there are one or two more who could quite easily join the list from the current crop.

The current situation at Hillsborough has been blamed on the Board, the Managers and the Players of recent years, I personally think a combination of all these has contributed to the downfall of the club but the bad signings helped burden the club with debt. Whilst Wednesday tried to attract 'so called' decent players, many of them arrived on decent contracts and failed to deliver only to be off loaded for little or no return, financially.

Fellow Owls fans pick your worst from a long list of failures.

To be honest I reckon Sturrock could be a step in the right direction. I don't think it's any coincidence that manger's who have done well elsewhere ie Wilson @ Bristol City and Jewell @ Wigan, have failed at Wednesday! The glory days of Waddle, Hirst, Sheridan, Francis etc seem a long time ago but maybe with the appointment of Sturrock who was never given a fair chance @ Southampton, and if Dave Allen finally gets his act together and quits, Ken Bates would certainly be a step in the right direction!!!

Worst signing for me must be Wim Jonk ,for the simple fact he was raved about as the top class ballplayer that we had lacked since Shez left. In the end ihe wasnt fit to lace Shez' boots.

 

If we had bought Hirst a top class strike partner instead of buying a keeper when we already had two good ones then we'd have took the old first Division Championship.
