    Leyton Maxwell in regard to coming from Liverpool with high hopes.

    Remember being really excited when ex QPR and England international Gerry Francis signed for us on loan in the mid 80's. Much like Robbie Fowler he was way past his best and soon left us.

    Andreas Cornelius

    The size of the fee and the wages are not an irrelevance. They are what turned him into the biggest flop ever.

    I'm pretty sympathetic towards him. I never thought he was as useless as is sometimes made out.

    But he absolutely ticks every box, he has to be our biggest flop.

    A lot of these players came with no expectations. As crap as they all were, only Zaha comes in the "flop" category, and my understanding is that Cardiff fans were on his back early on.

    Chandler had a decent record at Bolton, as did Philliskirk - and both were disappointing overall.

    Wilfred Zaha.
    Andy Campbell. After we signed him
    Kurt Nogan. I still want my money back !!

    Remind me of others...........................

    Re: Biggest 'Flop' In a City Shirt

    Cornelius - got injured pre-season and never fully recovered to have a decent fully fit run in the team
    J Lloyd Samuel - did he play with a stinking hangover?
    Ingram - one of the weirdest transfers ever
    Bywater- must have been an imposter
