Worst signings

[Eamon Dunphys tackle]

There was a forward we signed from Palace (Australian I think). Absolute dog shite. In the Mcarthy era I think. Can’t remember the useless bastard’s name.

Carl Veart?

 

[bomber79]

In fact i used to think Dave Mitchell was a Jeremy Beadle lookalike!

I was always expecting to walk out on the pitch holding a microphone and wearing sunglasses.

 

[MrRodcott]

Carl Veart?

That’s him. Off the scale useless.

 

[VassalsWall]

The bus scored a goal at Southampton first game of the season I swear I fucking fainted don't know if it was other substances but I pulled meself together to see the lions win 2-1

I'd forgive the bus most things after that diving headed goal away at Palace even if we did lose.

Rob Hulse comes to mind. A few shockers from Holloway, Gary Taylor Fletcher & Ricardo Fuller make me feel a bit ill thinking about it now.

Liam Trotter nearly sprang to mind with how bad he was towards the end of his time at Millwall. Use to boil my blood watching stroll around the middle of the pitch without a care in the world . One player who F'd up a promising career IMO.

A few randoms in, Gregg Wylde and Paris Cowan Hall.

 

[Kryan Bing]

Wasn't it Fuller who took a shot, and the ball cleared the CBL stand before it landed in Dagenham Market?

 

[Gaeilge Millwall]

Hollow head ?????

I’m surprised it took this long to hear Taylor Fletchers name mentioned. You could put most of Hollowheads and most of Spackmans signings in this thread though

I liked Lindsay Smith - THought he was OK

Strange one that people will note him down amongst the worst, when hin and Dave Cusack were a class apart in our Div 3 promotion season, Given some of the shit defenders that had preceded him in the few season before, he was a great improvement.

Alistair Edwards? Played only around half a dozen games for us, including cup games v Arsenal and Chelsea.

Do you get the feeling he posts on here?

The Leatherhead Lip

I'm glad I read the thread before putting that up. Always remember the hype as the next best thing since sliced bread, he was toast in no time.

Chris Kelly was the name.

 

[Poplar Lion]

George Long. Simply one of the worst keepers we've ever had.

 

[partisan_lion]

Carl Veart?

Carl Divert!..Anywhere but the goal!...

Paul Wilkinson, Gregory Berry, Booby Bowery, Ricky Newman...

 

[TheOneAndOnlyGazza]

George Long. Simply one of the worst keepers we've ever had.

Says the man who never saw John Granville. Pat Cuff or Andrew Iga. I'm sure an old timer or two will add Kevin Beswick and Gunner Brian Gambrill

 

[rotherwall]

Tony Kelly and Warren Patmore spring to mind, amongst many Mick McCarthy signed

 

[SE1]

Alan West

Yep, saw Granville, Cuff & Iga, but the fact we had the legend Bart sitting on the bench while Long was diving backwards or just falling down makes it particularly bad for me. Just my opinion of course.

Opinions don't fall into the either right or wrong category, because they are heavily context-dependent. Your context is shit managerial decisions. I think it has a large slice of recency bias as well.
