Kitson. Dodd. Turienzo.

 

[British Bulldog]

Turienzo with out a doubt, allthough i think Russel bromage deserves a mention in there as well.

 

[philgull25]

ken dodd must be up there after 2 seasons on our injury list

 

[Nemesis]

And you clearly do not understand football.

Come on, be fair. He can barely write English- now you expect him to understand football too?

 

[ezzoud]

Agree with Maybank and Peake given the amount spent on them (Maybank record signing at the time?) but one that hasn't been mentioned that was poor is Jamie Campbell

 

[vulture]

Some of theworst in my time

Mickey Thomas,
Richard Titman
Les Berry
Dale Jasper
Glen Thomas
Mark Farrington
Damien Hilton
Les Briley
Mark Walton
Gary Hobson
Jason Peake
Phil Mchint

Sure theres more if u add loan players

 

[Nemesis]

toss up betwen ashley neal and mark farington

And that Icelandic waste of space-Gislason wasn't it? He couldn't hit a barn door with a frigging howitzer.

 

[chickrun]

i like Vulure's list and would add Geoff Horsfield, David Lee , Alan Young and Ashley Neale(perhaps he was a loan). i am sure there are more. Gary Hobson is a bit harsh I feel.

 

[Skaville]

Jason Peake. Waste of space.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

I'd go with Mark Farrington. Mick Ferguson is a good call as well....

I think a bit harsh on Teddy Maybank, who scored important hatricks in the promotion run-in, a key goal away to Luton and the Albions first ever Division 1 goal away to Aston Villa. The productivity of the Ward/Mellor partnership had fallen off dramatically when we were promoted.

Tilts was always in a difficult position. The supporters were very anti Barry Lloyd at the time and as Tiltman followed Lloyd from Worthing and replaced Saunders (who was sold for financial reasons) he picked up the brunt of the criticism. He wasn't good enough at that time and probably would have done better if he'd had a season in the reserves first...

 

[Manthorpee]

Not even in the bottom 10.

Both Loft and Dixon were /are worse signings but you need these bad ones to appreciate the good ones.

loft wasnt a signing mate he is brighton youth....

 

[chez]

loft wasnt a signing mate he is brighton youth....

No he isn't. He came from Hastings or somewhere like that.

 

[Jimbo26]

Justin Fashanu

 

[Napper]

Got to be Farrington or Tiltman

Shade for Farrington due to the 100k it cost which is still a reasonable amount now let alone 20 years ago

 

[Mendoza]

Ashley Neal

Glenn Thomas

Daniel Webb

Michael Mahoney-Johnson

Valur Gislason

David Adekola

 

[Bazillion]

worst signing?

Glenn murray, have you only ever watched 3 games in your life? what a weird answer. How about richard tiltman.

 

[Uncle Buck]

Err Hilton?

not really a signing as he came through yoof

Ashley Neale, Jamie Campbell definately came to my mind first!

Worst ever for anyone is Ali Dia. Souness on the pulse while at Soton
