How about, top 10 worst Barnsley players in your time watching

Good point. My memory is playing tricks on me. I thought he played a few games up front. I will replace Kenny with Lee Glover in my top 10 of worst Barnsley players.

 

In no particular order

Frimpong
Shea
Mattis
Regis
Onibujie
Keith Brown
Mido
Gibbs
Knight edit - Burton
Dangerous Brian

I could go on and on really... we've had some sh1t3

 

Deon Burton is the worst, cos he didn’t want to be here
Frimpong close behind
Willie Ferry was hopeless
Stephen Bennett even worse
And Obbi Oulare worse still

I don’t think anyone reaches the depths of those 5

The fat keeper was pretty awful. Can’t even remember his name, but he went on holiday with Flicker
I’m struggling to think of any more who were just 100% bad, cos I tend to not dwell on the rubbish ones. We’ve had such a turnover of players this century that it’s difficult to keep on top of them all. I’m not going to say Paul Gibbs, because he wasn’t up to the standard, but that wasn’t his fault. He tried, and wasn’t totally awful. Same with Mido. I was at a wedding and missed his only first team appearance, but I’d seen him in a preseason game at Stocksbridge and, whilst he had his limitations, he was the best player on the pitch.

Talented players not giving us anywhere near 100% are almost as bad as the hapless ones, so players like Jacob Mellis, Chris Lumsden and Kevin Donovan annoy me much more than the players who come in and play one or two games when they are not up to the standard.

 

Burton, that's who I meant instead of Knight. Had a senior moment there.

 

Phil Gridelet - had no impact on any games whatsoever.
Paul Gibbs, even though he tried.
Cyrille Regis' brother.
Neil Warnock

 

This thread should have been called All Time Grates !

 

Absolutely this. And neither should Scott Wiseman who was part of a team who were 8th at the start of February 2012 and was then really good in the following season's great escape. He was definitely poor in the intervening period but surely our worst players have to have been crap throughout?

 

Deon Burton 1 to 10

 

With you and Fired on this one. Never struck a bat in all the time he was with us.

As an aside, Mido cannot qualify for these lists IMHO purely based on his comedy value. Thought Big Keef might have got more out of him though.

(Which reminds me, Jay 'Machiavelli' must be up there!)

 

I'd like to see the best in all our players ....

But

4 Ian Woan
3 Brek Shea
2 Champions league player, lets punch the ball into a Preston Players head for him to score - aka Vito Mannone
1 He's Dench, He's not a foobballer, He's Fringpong

 

Frimpong
Brian ocallaghan
Deon burton

 

Liam dickinson
Scott wiseman
Tom Kennedy
Mike pollit
Maceo righters
Mvoto
Zeki fryers
Matt Bailey
Frigging fringpong
Gary o connor

 

surprised nobody's mentioned Ivan tony yet

 

Ivan Toney

 

If you’ve not got ‘quarterback’ Tom Kennedy and Mike Flynn on your list you’ve not been watching. Both simply as bad as it gets.

 

What about Richard f**king Naylor?!

 

Rigters, Frimpong, Oulare and Mido stand out for taking the ****

Hill’s Rochdale lot were bad but each had a decent spell, so harsh to include them imo.

 

I cannot believe that Paul Malcolm isn't mentioned by anyone so far.

 

Chris Hedworth - probably more famous for being the second goalkeeper in the game where Newcastle played 3 and lost 1-8 to West Ham.
Darren Foreman
Paul McGuigan

We really need to have some criteria for minimum games played. Although many of the players listed were first team regulars for a spell. So you have to remember that there were players *worse* than them in the reserves...
