Who is our worst player to have made 100 appearances?

[Bladepicker]

On the back of a shoutbox question I asked, and given that JLT has made over 100 appearances for United despite being utter dog turd. I want to know which cheeky little scamp has managed to pull the wool over a managers eye's so much he can be rightly said to be our worst ever player with more than 100 appearances for us to his name?

Link of a list of all players with more than 100 appearances is below:

I'm saying JLT gets an honourable mention, but he's no Ryan Flynn or Michael Doyle. For number of appearances to shitness ratio, our very own traffic cone takes some beating, but Monty has some nostalgic wonderment to him and his complete lack of football ability so he gets a pass from me (which he would then mis control or boot down the line for Nuddy) so it's not him.

I think overall Doyle gets my vote for our worst.

Over to you.

 

[Revolution]

It’s between Doyle, Nesh Cup Tart Ryan Flynn, and Bobby Ford.

But in about 6 weeks’ time the answer will be Rhian Brewster. He’s currently on 93 league games.

 

[JOEYDEE]

Montgomery no contest

 

[Shadota]

Steve Simonsen for me. A very solid provider of gash performances, with an emphatic penalty miss as the icing on the incredibly shitty cake

 

[JOE SHAW 1956]

From that list for me...... Stewart Houston....Bobby Ford & Monty. But ? we have had our fair share of duds to be honest .....

 

[JD88]

Ryan Flynn and it's not even close. Bloke was utterly horrendous.

 

[Geordie Blade]

I know it's a boring path to tread, but I will never understand the criticism of Nick Montgomery. He put in 100% every single time, and made the absolute best of his abilities (which weren't as good as some players', but were certainly far better than some other effortless crap that we've had to put up with).

Edit: No votes for Steve Simonsen yet?

 

[N20 Blade]

Tough to include JLT, Doyle, Monty. Worst player for us ever over 100 games? No.

Especially JLT, he's got limitations but has improved markedly over the years.

They all contributed, achieved and participated more for me than others.

Bromby, Collins, Simonsen were worse players imo.

 

[wakefieldblade]

Simonsen, S Quinn, Doyle, Collins and Monty were all donkeys

 

[JustLookin]

What a mean spirited thread.

 

[west_yorks_blade]

What a mean spirited thread.

I’ve been searching for the right phrase to sum up how I feel about this thread and that is exactly it.

Anyone else struggle to understand the need to slag off current players, especially given how well we are doing at the moment? More wins than anyone else in the division and second place despite a points deduction.

Robinson has served us very well over recent years and has regularly been outstanding. He doesn’t deserve this abuse.

 

[Cheesebored]

Simonsen, S Quinn, Doyle, Collins and Monty were all donkeys

Stephen Quinn? Not even close.

 

[Wards]

Doyle ended up a bit of a cult hero but hard to look past him and Collins - mainstays in a shitty third division side.

JLT nowhere close.

 

[Silent Blade]

Doyle was happy to stay in League 1 as he said in 2012 "Not getting promotion isnt an underachievement"

 

[Lord Eddard Muir]

Can't believe I'm the first to offer Chris Porter. Yes he seemed a nice lad but the "If Porter scores we're on the pitch" chant tells its own story.

I never understood the hate for Ryan Flynn, on his day he was great for that level. One of my favourites from that Clough side.

 

[Cappy]

Votes for Robbo and Monty just goes to show that when people say, "all we ask for is 100% effort", it is total bollocks. These blokes gave everything they've had.

 

[Norwood's 6 iron]

On the back of a shoutbox question I asked, and given that JLT has made over 100 appearances for United despite being utter dog turd.

JLT certainly wouldn't win our player of the season award, but why you have to come out with such a crass comment about one of our current players is beyond me.
He has made a big contribution to our success this season.

 

[Gimli]

Prepared to get pelted for this, and I love the guy but shout out for Rob Kosluk, if Monty is getting put forward then Kosluk should be also.

I hadn't seen this comment before I replied in a similar way.
Totally unnecessary to attack one of our current players in this way.

 

[Brian Deane]

It's gotta be that Forrin goalie we had last season, fook me he was shite.
Oops just re read the OP and it says 100 matches not 100 goals

 

[S40BLADE]

Disliked many but Collins stands out for me the pointy shouty shit lump 50p head tosser.

 

[dazzlingblade]

Montgomery no contest

We had a lot of excellent midfielders here during Montgomery's time at the club, they were that good because they had Montgomery at the side of them, doing the leg work and allowing them to play, was he a great footballer no, but I guarantee anyone who played alongside him would not hold the same opinion

 

[GymClassHero]

Stephen Quinn? Not even close.

Stephen Quinn was a good servant to the club and also a youth academy product. Should not even be close to being in the conversation.

Neither should Monty. He was outstanding in our PL season under Warnock - limited in ability yes but he always put in 110% effort and I'm sure I remember Patrick Vieira stating after an FA cup match that Montgomery man marked him out of the game.

 

[Alan Birchenall's hair]

Only one winner for me. And by a fuckin' mile. Peter Katchouro. Complete and utter waste of space. 40 year old Steve Ogrizovic gave him a 10 yard start in a run at goal from 30 yards for a tap in to an empty net in a cup match at Coventry. Still caught him though.
Honourable mention - John Burridge. Complete clown of a goalie.....

 

[COME BACK CHED]

John Mathews 78/82 was supposed to be the fastest footballer ever , never showed it .

 

[Digs blade]

100 games means all players on that list will have attached memories for all of us who saw them play

Different eras so it’s difficult but Steve Charles Brian Smith and Les Tibbott would be up there for me

Blackwells fault he took all them stupid near-post corners .

 

[Houston_Blade]

I think overall Doyle gets my vote for our worst.

Couldn’t agree more, terrible excuse for a Blades player and defended by many. A good few of the players from that time were pretty dire. Some of the 90’s Warnock signings were dross as well but I doubt many made it to 100 performances.

 

[Rufus Smalls]

I’m going to get pelters for these two, but …… Paul Beesley and Jamie Hoyland.

Talk about getting the absolute maximum out of bang average players.

 

[Bell4]

From that list for me...... Stewart Houston....Bobby Ford & Monty. But ? we have had our fair share of duds to be honest .....

Monty wouldn’t get into the top 100 , FFS
