You forgot John Ebbrell.We have had plenty of rubbish players (Dean Hammond), some average Joes (Paul Thirlwell) and some legends like Delano but this is jjst to celebrate those whose brilliance in the red and white stripes was glorious but short lived.
Lee Morris
Owen Morrison
Jean-Phillipe Javary
George Donis
Steve Kabba (pre leg breaks)
Jean Calve
Just read your message after I’d posted mine. Can I bask in your glory ?John Ebbrell.
What a 45 minutes that was!
Nick Blackman - he looked really skilful and I remover him scoring loads of penalties (was probably only one or two in reality)
Fair point. And if he ever needs an ineffectual centre mid partner I give you… James Harper!Paul Thirwell was never an average Joe .
He took the art of going missing on a football pitch to a whole new level . In terms of work rate , enthusiasm and commitment he made Dean Hammond and John Lundstram look like Nobby Styles and Trevor Hockey .
Danny Cadamateri. He had a spell of a half a dozen games where he looked like a poor man's Rooney. Kept hitting the woodwork and looked like someone that was going to take off. Never happened.
He did everything but score in those first few games, beating players for fun. I think everyone thought that once he got one he'd go on a run, but while he did score once, it never happened.
I remember his debut and he was pulling out all the tricks and looked a class above everyone in our side, may have been the QPR game where Billy scored a hat trick then was plonked on the right wing from then onwards in another brief spell of brilliance .Sun Jihai had moments where he looked brilliant, but unfortunately had more moments when he looked like a nutter (including a crazy challenge on Mifsud). Could have been a cult hero but kept getting sent off
