Worst Striker

[TrueBlue]

mm such choice!

 

[Stats]

Theres a lot of tosh on there

I think you have to disguard both abiodun and salter as they both didnt play many games

Same with roach played under martin for a few games then disappeared under little

Has to be Jones by a mile he played a good season without doing anything

 

[TrueBlue]

some are in there to make up the numbers

 

[canveyshrimper]

Where is Peter Abbott & Richard Young???

 

[TrueBlue]

98 to present day

 

[overseas shrimper]

Spoilt by choice!!!

I had to go for G. Jones though.

 

[Guest]

Graeme Jones. He was bloody awful.

 

[DTS]

I dont think Fat Fitz was that bad really. Salter and Campbell both scored vs Orient scum and that makes them Demi Gods.

Jones was over weight,useless and didnt even try - hated him...

 

[SUFC_Al]

god we've had some sh!t strikers although Graeme Jones takes some beating in the sh!t stakes.

1. Can I vote for all of them, please?

2. Where's Barrington Belgrave?  He'd be on my list...

(P.S. Much to Hooly's chagrin, I voted for Neil Campbell.... even more monstrously untalented than Jones, IMHO)

If only!  

 Yea, I know that's out of context to what you really meant.  Now you can't seriously expect me to ignore this poll!  

?

Promised so much but delivered so little.  Oops sorry that should be "We were promised so much but he shot so little"  

Or who can forget the great departed footballing expert Scriv describing him as the best "holder up" of a ball in the league!  And telling us to watch his movement off the ball as we couldn't appreciate it as we'd not played to Scriv's high level.  Movement!  Hilarious had it not been so sad.  When PC Jervais teeth fell out he moved more & quicker in one half time than Jones did in 20 odd games.

You lot are just a bunch of gloryhunters jumping on my bandwagon.  Find your own crap player to hate he's mine.

I haven't (precisely because I'm a seaoned Jones-watcher...)

See my previous post...

Is that a swift use of the edit facility I see there or are my old eyes playing up.  

You are a gentleman MtS for choosing another halfwit to victimise!

Shame this poll isn't from 97 then we could have all voted for one-eye Boere!!!

 

[Firestorm]

By '98 onwards i presume it will be ok to nominate the infamous Algernon w%&knightly . Played 92 games between 1906 and 1908, managing to score once in a preseason freindly against The Clapham Consumption Clinic Reserves (Known as The C C C siders) in the only game he managed to get his boots on the right feet.
Press cuttings of the time have him as being so lazy and mercenary even his bowels wouldn't move without being paid.

Matt, players who win one of Golf's Majors are permanently exempt from qualifying for the event for life, however crap they then become.

Similarly Lord Campbell has permanent exemption from "Crap Striker" polls because he has scored winning goals against Leyton Orient - I believe in the False Dawn that was Alan Little's first match in charge. He gets additional exemption for never having conceded an own goal against the O's, which from recent results is even more creditable.
