Worst Albion XI at the Withdean

[keaton]

I would never habe Lewis or McCammon in there.

Hawkins, Cameron and Holyroyd would have to be

Yedell - thats a blast from the plast. Didn't we have an ex-Arsenal keeper at the same time, who was rubbish for us, but went on the be in the Sweden squad for the 2006 world cup?

 

[strings]

McCammon was ok the times I saw him away from home - especially that fantastic away game at Bramall Lane. He was never quite as good at Withdean though.

 

[Spider]

Bizarre choice. You'll be suggesting Thierry Racon next.



Yeldell

Bangura was good for a couple of games but abysmal the rest of the time - hence being dropped and not featuring at all towards the end of the season. At least, I think he was dropped rather than injured. Either way, he was pretty shit, although probably not quite shit enough to feature on this list.

Rami Shaaban

Not rubbish.

 

[Monsieur Leclerc]

McCammon was playing for a side with absolutely no creativity whatsoever. He did have some decent games. He also scored one less goal than Leon Knight in the season of 2004/5 having played almost half the amount of games.

Mark Cartwright

Really?

That reminds me - that French keeper we had was dire. Florent Chaignau? Summink like that.

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

Yelldell had an absolute stormer of a game against Leeds.

I notice you are from Turkey, how many games have you seen during the Withdean era?

Whoops! I forgot about the 'If you havent been at the games you have no right to an opinion' brigade. Theyve obviously been too quiet recently. In my experience of seeing most home games between 1977 and 1982 there are lot so things you miss at games if you are in the crowd because of peopel standing up, people talking or the fact that there are twenty two players on a pitch, not just two... just have a look at the rows we have on here over whether such and such was a penalty or not. You probably have more right to an opinion if you have seen the highlights over and over again as well as listen to the game. I saw Yelldell once in the flesh before I moved to Turkey in 2006 and every game that I didnt go to I heard on the radio and occasionally saw highlights of until Player produced highlights. I had forgotten Leeds which I now am pretty sure I saw on video (might be wrong now). I cant remember the game I saw but am pretty sure it was his last and he was dire. It wasnt Leeds.

p.s. The ball didnt cross the line last week.... it hit the bar... I SAW IT! xxxx

Rami Shaaban

Not rubbish.

Agree. Really liked Shaban. Wouldve loved him to stay.

 

[Comedy Steve]

Bit unfair on Hawkins I thought.

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

Bit unfair on donkeys comparing them to Hawkins more like.

Wasn't he the keeper who had to change into pink at half time cos of kit clash up at Leeds or somewhere
Another one to add is Stuart Fleetwood

 

[Tomo1794]

Birchall?

Nein. The one McGhee said was last seen running off in a huff down North Street to catch a bus to the channel tunnel

Yelldell... but dont tell anyone as I wasnt there

 

[Mellotron]

Gavin Hoyte

No, because he did actually have a few good games for us.

 

[Mellotron]

Holyroyd would have to be

Bit harsh on Holroyd, deservedly man of the match in his first game, and played as well as he could in a team that couldn't be less built round his style of play if it tried.

I didn't see his debut, but I struggle to see what style of play would suit him. He's slow, weak, with no first touch and little effort

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

I don't think McCammon was anywhere near the worst player we've seen. Considering McGhee's pursuit of him he turned out to be pretty shit, but he did have a few decent games for us and I seem to remember him scoring a lot more for us than any of the other strikers that have been mentioned. Didn't he score 2 against Sunderland?

Amen to that. ln fact, if it wasnt for the fact that l knew l would be laughed off NSC, I came close to including the Beast (as Mark McGhee called him), in the BEST eleven at Withers. I know he wasnt the greatest goal scorer, and l know we didnt see the best of him, but he is a huge battering ram of a striker who could hold the ball up so well. The perfect foil for Bobby Zee.
