Biggest 'Flop' In a City Shirt
Wilfred Zaha for me, there have been many in my 40 plus years with the highs and lows, but this is the one that sticks in the memory as he was a ready made player with bags of potential. The mega bucks Dane was also a disappointment but only because of the price that was attached to him, clubs like Cardiff don't spend that sort of money on 'one for the future' and we expected SOME instant talent, sadly it took his leaving the club for that to be achieved and recognised.
Remind me of others...........................

Fowler scord what 6 in 12 games? Some flop compared to most.

His wages would have required an extra 6000 fans a game for 23 games. Considering Cardiff were at Ninian Park at the time, and considering the club were also paying huge wages to Sinclair and Hasselbaink then it was a flop on the pitch and was always going to be a flop off it.

Alan Foggon, although I liked him. Went to see a reserve game once, in which he played, at Ninian Park. By the time we walked halfway along Tudor Road on the way back to Cardiff General station, he had changed and his white Rover 2000 sped past us and stopped abruptly outside a local betting shop. it must have been less than 10 minutes since the final whistle, so you can't fault that dedication!

Re: Biggest 'Flop' In a City Shirt
Wilfred Zaha, one of the most talented players to ever pull on a City shirt but crucified by our idiotic fans because he couldn’t get stuck in like Roy Keane
