TrickyTrev Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 We've had some good uns over the years. De Bilde would take the accolade in my time watching Wednesday. I remember when we signed both him and Sibon - £5m spent between the pair, knowing that was our total transfer budget gone for the season. After the first few games of seeing De Bilde play it was becoming apparent he just would not be able to cut it. At least Sibon had occasional moments of brilliance but De Bilde, crikey. I remember when we signed Sibon I was away on a lads holiday in Benidorm and I saw it whilst hungover on Sky news, I was still in a bit of a tangle from the night before, misheard and thought we'd signed Seedorf. Told all my mates and for the rest of the day we honestly thought we'd signed Clarence Seedorf, needless to say the following day when my mate bought a copy of the Sun it was a big let down.

AlbertOB Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Far too many but a couple not mentioned........Blondeau. Kovacevic. Bothroyd, Di Canio (way he left). To be honest it would be easier if we listed those that havent disappointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jowl Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 De Bilde, Jonk, Sibon. I really what Stevie May to work out for us...... but he's just not very good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you didn't mistake Sticky Vicky for Tricky Both entertaining in their own special ways of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Clinton Morrison, or Garry Thompson. Thomo hands down. One of my first ever aways he destroyed us in a 2-2 draw v Baggies. When he signed i thought he would be amazing. He was, but not in the way I thought. Sad, cos aparently he was a top bloke, and he was a superb athlete. Just not a footballer.

FlyingOwl Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Stevie May massively. Didn't the thread reach 100 pages? John Bostock excited me. Thought he'd be the guy to make the difference and take us up. As it was, we did go up. Bostock made no impact though. Jay Bothroyd another one. Turned up for one game which was, funnily enough, on SKY. Go figure. But for every Stevie May & Francis Jeffers over-hyped signing....you get an under the radar Kieran Lee type signing.

East Yorks Owl Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Can remember being very unimpressed with Gordon Watson. It was at a time when we had a great team, so I couldn't see why we signed him. I'll never forget the dive against Leeds to win our consolation penalty at Hillsborough - very embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleblue Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) Stevie May. Kept saying how shiiite he was, only to get slagged off by posters saying, "he cant work with balls like that" Far from me being personal, but that just smacks off two hatness.

airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 FJ9, Andy Sinton, Andy Hinchcliffe, Geroce Sodoski (or whatever he was called).....The infinite list of lazy journeyman turds that litter our past.

Ian Fleming Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Ian Nolan, mediocre at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibbo48 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Any of the left backs signed after Don Megson and before Worthington. Harold Wilcockson, Jim Craig, Sammy Todd. Then in the middle either Larry May or Guy Branston. All had big reputations and some were internationals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Fleming Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Glyn Snodin, scored bucket loads for Donny from left back but came here and scored 1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eaton_Swfc Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Bothroyd for me. Was sure we'd finally signed a proven championship goal scorer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradowl Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Most recently Stevie May, turned out a very disappointing signing. From years gone by, Lloyed Owusu, scored for fun at Brentford but got stage fright turning out for us. DeBilde Lazy and looked to be taking wee wee. Ian Fleming, bit like Stevie May scored lots of goals up in Scotland but struggled when he came to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
