poite Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Rhodes to be honest. He wasn't the deadly goal scorer we all expected, wanted and desperately needed but I always felt we were a better team when he was in the squad. His reputation counted for something on the field. Opposing players pulled towards him and it opened up opportunities for other players. For me thats why he was always more effective in a two upfront. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Crawshaw Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Darren Potter Never understood the grief he got. Spent 4 years at Liverpool when a youngster. Was a decent player for us, playing over 100 games in the championship and league 1. Good footballer and had a good shot on him. Went on to play over 200 games for MK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopparberg Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 1 hour ago, folger said: Darren Potter. I think there was a player in there… he went on to MK Dons in a system that suited him more, more on the ball / passing style. I’m sure him and JOC were in the team that beat Sheffield United too? And despite him being weak, and looking weak he got stuck in and had a bandaged head even ! The 3 corners things doesn’t even bother me too much - yes they were in succession but our corners aren’t much good at the best of times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did and was a decent player, but I still have nightmares about the miss against Wimbledon in the FA cup. We would've had a good semi final day out against chelsea who at that time were pretty much level with us in the league i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulrs Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 main one for me is Chris Woods. Usually gets slagged off mainly cos his two worst errors came in a cup final and a Sheffield derby but he won 40+ caps for England and I saw him have many superb games for Wednesday. A tremendous keeper. Always thought Peter Atherton was a very good defender who never got much credit. And I like Liam Palmer but all my mates think he’s dreadful. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atherton I guess gers dragged a lot because he wasn't Roland Nilsson. Bit like my suggestion - Camsron Dawson. Harshly treated because he isn't Keiren Westwood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markg Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Pembridge. Could never understand the stick he got at all. Worked hard, very good left foot and didn't have many bad games. Recently, I'd go for Liam Palmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn’t fathom why most fans thought “great signing”. After a few games, most fans changed their mind and said “poor player” etc whereas I thought has was actually a lot better than I expected and suffered because he was forever covering for the disaster that was Michael Morrison. Purse played two matches with Morrison then left the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlinOldham Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Obvious one is Nuihu, total marmite player for our fanbase. If he had been a foot shorter and not just used as a target man, probs would have scored a few more for us. However, he was over 6ft 2 tall, so automatically he was expected to be mint in the air.
