Worst ever players at this level??

[eightiesrobin]

Steven Gillespie, watch from about 20 seconds in. I love the Wrexham commentary "Oh my god"

 

[eightiesrobin]

It depresses me greatly watching that again

He was class for Cheltenham, Col U paid £400,000 for him!

 

[LeWhites]

I take it his open goal miss in the 94th minute at the Rec (which probably cost you the last playoff place) was the final straw for Kinnear Snr?

I think Kinnear would have signed him on again given the choice. That miss was the final straw for me and plenty of other supporters, so to sign him on again wouldn't have been worth the aggro.

That was shocking. A full season undone by that.

Depresses you?

 

[Darlo On Tour]

Has to be Exodus Geohaghon

He made 5 appearances for us in 2011-12, I think he wore divers boots.

 

[eightiesrobin]

Exodus was an unused sub for Stafford at Alty last Saturday

 

[eightiesrobin]

Depresses you?

Like looking at pictures of yourself before you went bald / fat / old etc

 

[Luke Imp]

Glen Little.

 

[Luke Imp]

I suspect most NL teams have had Jamie Hand in their ranks at one point. He seemed to play for a different team every month.

If you think having Hand in the NL was bad, we had him in L2!

 

[fifaking]

Glen Little.

That'll be Sir Glen Little to you

 

[PoolieTom]

Our current centre back Scott Harrison is up there with the worst defenders I have ever seen. That's including the local Sunday league, over 40 and hungover defenders

Wasn't too bad for us back in 08/09, but was only a short term deal.

The Grays team of, I think, 2009-10. Absolutely awful, which included a certain Preston Edwards getting lobbed while on his line, by a shot from the half way line. He only went and joined us the following summer and became a huge hit with the fans, clocking over 200 appearances.

 

[Minstermen central]

Let me get started

Marvin McCoy
Ben clappison
Fraser Clarke
Liam Robinson
Ben Barber
Daniel Nti
Richard Brodie
Shaun Rooney

Apart from McCoy our useless ex manager McNamara signed rest start of last season,no wonder we went down.

 

[EnglishRed]

That'll be Sir Glen Little to you

*stands and salutes*

What a player. What a GUY

 

[Master D]

We are discussing the worst players, not the BEST ever seen at this level.

That is Yasir Kasim isn't it? The best anchorman to EVER compete in non league.

Wasn't keen on McCoy to start with, but started to impress me towards the end of last season and start of this.

Yeah, good player and able to control games albeit not being able to move or last particularly long.

Christian Smith has played for a few teams here and below including us and been complete toss for all of them as far as I'm aware.

Our forum recently had a "worst Barrow player ever" thread, and Christian Smith was who I had in mind. Probably only played five or six times, but he was embarrassingly shit.
Sean McConville was dreadful for us and is now highly rated in the league, Ashley Grimes was properly useless, and a lad called Andy Nicholas had hundreds of league appearances under his belt when he joined us on a two-year deal, but was so bad he got frozen out and the club altered its policy to only sign one-year deals from that moment on.

 

[Impish]

Steven Gillespie, watch from about 20 seconds in. I love the Wrexham commentary "Oh my god"

Wow that straight red for the Wrexham lad for standing on somebody's toe is possibly the worst decision I've ever seen

Is that the same ashley grimes that played for utd

 

[Monkey Tennis]

No, he's not related - though a lot of places had reported that was his dad. Strangely enough though, he started out in Man Utd's youth team, and dropped through the leagues. Was okay for a while, but useless by the time he reached us, even worse for Southport last season, and now playing in front of one man and his dog in the Scottish League 2.
A proper lazy fucker.

 

[The Cards]

Sam Beasant.

We've had worse keepers than him at this level! Aaron Howe was one...

But my vote has to go to Gavin Williams, he was a shockingly bad striker.

 

[East Bank Shot]

Craig Stanley.

 

[eightiesrobin]

Yes, I think it was reversed on appeal.

 

[Aberstone]

Yeah, good player and able to control games albeit not being able to move or last particularly long.

Which is irrelevant when he's controlling the game as you've alluded to. All rise for Sir Glen Little.

Thanks mate

Craig Hobson .... although he did once score a worldie/fluke against Wrexham.

That is a great shout, given what I saw at the level below last year. That said, I'd say he was better than Danny Hattersley.
