    I’m with you on “wand of a left foot” Kennedy. Add Paul Gibbs and you’ve got the worst pairing ever.

    Beresford, really? I thought he was great and it’s a shame we let go of him so quickly.

    We’d have got more out of Judi Dench.

    Krizan and Cole Kpekawa are way ahead of the Belgians. We spent over a million on these two.

    Saw him play against the missus’ lad a couple of years ago. He hadn’t got any better. Think it was Maidenhead.

    Also saw George Waring the same season, for Curzon Ashton. I always liked him and surprised he never kicked on. That might be a better thread.

    Bit of a tangent.

    Frimpong and Mido for me. Absolutely shocking signings, although the French lad from last season could run them close, and I don’t mean MdG

    Peter Sand. We thought we’d signed Ebbe, the Bundesliga top scorer. Oh the disappointment. Then there was Phil Gridlet or ‘God’ because everyone knew he was there but nobody saw him.

    I think value wise has to be Hristov. Signed for 1.5 million in 1997 which would be a touch under 4 million now. Scored 8 league goals.

    we have had worst players but I would say he is the worst transfer.

    Beat me to it. Paul Gibbs aaaaaaargh.
    Helen Chamberlain probably thought he was good at summat. Not football obviously.
