Worst Alty Player ever?
« on: March 05, 2010, 12:40:11 PM »

So, no current players please, although I doubt any of them come close to some of the tripe that pulled on the shirt in the unibond days.

I'll kick it off with Darryl Royle.

I know weve had a thread like this before, but its a bit of friday fun and im bored. Nothing malicious, but someone has to have been the worst so lets re-open the debate.

It's just got to be that geezer who was ex-welsh league and a supposed welsh international but was slower than me and in his early forties. (Cult knows who I mean)

Or my own personal favourite, Peter Frankish who must have been a high-ranking blackmailer to keep getting picked.

By the way is that a typo? Do you mean Darren? Otherwise you've named someone who was so bad that Ive blacked out the memory!  :D

Chris Waring, I suspect?

Ben Wilkinson. As one heckler said when he came back to Moss Lane, "Worst Alty loan signing ever Wilkinson"  :D

Let's forget the fact he scored the equaliser  >:(

Bit unfair on Danny McGoona that, he at least had some moments in an Alty shirt, a superb debut at Southport and was virtually unplayable on the last day of the season at Rushden scoring twice, unfortunately we'd all stopped watching or caring long before then that day.
