    Phil Walker. About the same time we had Chris Rodon and Paul Bannon, equally hopeless, And Cameron Toshack too. Not a goals between them. At least Morrys Scott scored a few inathe FA Cup. John Pearson was another no goal centre forward. But I think for the wages Omar Niasse and for the transfer fee Gary MAdine are up there.

    I'd love to know what kind of wages Niasse is pulling at Everton-30 grand a week? They deserve it for being so inept.

    The Toshack family could dominate both the best & worst threads

    Hard to know how to answer this.

    Absolute worst in terms of ability: probably someone like steve flack who simply didn't look like a footballer in his time with us, but hard to criticise a player who tried hard and was a bargain basement signing anyway. There are loads more in that category too, most of whom we will have forgotten and for good reason.

    worst in terms of being out of place in otherwise good teams: Eddie must be up there. Totally lost.

    worst in terms of crap return for money spent: Cornelius and Madine are the flagship crap signings, but there are loads more - Alan Lee, Revell (?).

    old players who scored for other clubs but not us: ALF, Fowler (not his fault), Nogan, Philiskirk

    bizarre signings: Guerra; Niasse; Dai Thomas; Feretti


    Basically we've had such a variety of crap strikers who have been crap for such a wide variety of reasons. We've really been spoilt in that regard. In some ways it is a pity that OGS didn't pick himself as a player manager as he would open up a new category of shit player-managers.

    Does Ronnie Moore count?
    He wasn’t a bad footballer but as a goal scorer , for us, he was awful.
    Anyone remember those badges?

    As a midfielder I guess he would have been pretty crap as a striker.

    Was he? Hardly saw him but as I recall he was usually our 89th minute substitution up top.

    Nope, he was most definitely a striker I remember those days well, in the same team as other stalwarts like Kerrea Gilbert and Will Flood.
