Players you had forgotten about...

[Lincolnshire Seagull]

Eric Young - one of my favourite all time BHA players

I bumped into him on Portsmouth station after a game there. He was by himself but I was too shy to speak to him. I guess he was on his way back to London, having recently joined us. There was a pretty violent air around the station - it didn't seem the ideal place for an opposition footballer to be.

After reading the thread about Leeds favourite moments, how about Chaigneau?

 

[BensGrandad]

Are you thinking of Ingermasson who later signed from Reading?

or Guslarson (sp) who wasnt that good

Ingimarsson, ex-Brentford, was on-loan from Wolves. He followed Coppell to Reading. He could play.

Gislasson, on loan from Arsenal, certainly could NOT play football even for the Albion during the Priestfield days.

Dave Cameron.

"Cameron was useless, full stop. If he wants to be a professional footballer he has got to liven up. On that performance it will be a long time before he plays again."

I rememer Chaigneau playing for us away at Southampton, but not against Leeds.

David Yelldell played for us against Leeds in the (in)famous pink shirt.

Derek Leck signed from Northampton. Poor bloke had to replace the great Barry Rees after his tragic death and wasn't up to the job.

The same Barry Lloyd who found Dean Saunders, Kurt Nogan and Mr Murray ?

Chris Cattlin signed Dean Saunders. Bazza sold him to Oxford for 60K.

calm down buddy! wasn't having a pop at lloyd, but you have to admit farrington was comically turd. i reckon he's the slowest player i've ever seen play for us. and that takes some beating!

I personally don't think he was that bad. His goalscoring record wasn't the best but then not all good strikers HAVE to score loads of goals. I think he was a skillful player who was plagued by injuries and was badly treated by the fans.

Comically turd he certainly wasn't.


Now lets talk about Richard Tiltman.....

okay. he was also useless but having been signed to replace the superb dean saunders, well that was a tough act to follow. suppose the same is true of farringdon who had to try and step into mike small's magic boots. JB and small... now that was a proper forward pairing.

Then of course there's our ex-players who went on to managerial success -
Dave Sexton (ManU);
Jimmy Sirrel (took Notts County into the top flight);
Howard Wilkinson (England) -
and our eminent pundits - Lawro, Michael Robinson, Steve Claridge............

 

[The Tassie Seagull]

I do remember Simon Funnell having one good game whne we whipped Cambridge 4-1, (Nogan hat-trick I think).

Now turning out for East Grinstead Town in the county league

 

[Statto]

Alister John.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Alister John.

He was amazing in the half time substitute business, juggling the ball. (A bit like Robinson).

Didn't he get stabbed?

 

[Frutos]

Didn't he get stabbed?

Yes, I believe he did.

To keep on topic, I would nominate Sam Williams.

Another of those debutant scorers that will disappear from Albion folklore.
