[Albion] Shortest Albion careers. One game wonders!

Gutted - I had read right through the thread and this was the only person I was certain to add to it. . . you beat me to it - the reverse fixture to the one on your tag I think. He was a really good keeper as well although let in 2 that day. . . fortunately we scored 3.

correct on all accounts

Crap. I was there. I even have a sad photo of the away corner which, although tiny, was so sparsely populated you could count them all. It was a Fans United game, too, wasn't it? That was probably the epicentre of our low point, performance wise.

The Heart of Football (on Valentine's Day or thereabouts if I remember correctly). Yes, I was there too wishing I'd stayed in The Cricketers-that was true for most of the Gillingham era.

Look at the Shrews keeper!

Whilst looking up someone else who it turns out played 20 times (I am not naming as I would look even more stupid!) I stumbled across Calvin Andrew and then having looked up Steve Cook, who it turns out played twice, thought of Grant Hall

 

[BangaloreGull]

ok Andrew was wrong. . . 9 according to his Wiki page, which aligns more to what I thought but it said 1 on the Brighton page for that season - unless I misread it. . .

Last one. . . Maksimenko

Ben Andrews? Pretty sure he got sent off away at Carlisle and that was about it.

Cardiff .
I bet he's trotted out that story a few times

I remember having so much optimism when a lot of these players signed.
A part of me still thinks Matt heath will come good

 

[Deleted User X18H]

Are you talking about Chris Allen, the former Oxford United and Nottingham Forest winger? Micky Adams took him on trial in the spring of 2001; he had recently been playing at Slough. He had an ankle injury but Adams was willing to let him prove his fitness. He sat among the substitutes during the game at Brisbane Road in March 2001 but he was never named on a teamsheet and I'm not sure he was ever signed to a contract.

There was also a lad called Cherif Diallo who was a non-playing sub at Blackpool in September 2000.

Maybe Diallo. Thanks

How many games did Aidan Newhouse play?

 

[Kosh]

What was the name of the third Spanish midfielder/striker Gus signed - there was Collunga, Spanish Dave and?!?

I think he played once, perchance twice.

He was, as you say: "sheet, no messin"

 

[Munkfish]

Didnt we have a keeper called Jones who played at Port Vale? Was that his only game?

Also what about Phil Hadland?

David Rodriquez. 10 apps according to Wiki.

David Rodriquez

Thank you.

Yes - he probably made 10 appearances now I've said that! Did he score any? I've also got the feeling he did...

Oh well, he was eminently forgettable.

Fourteen. I think he was preoccupied making future Worthing FC footballers!

He scored once - was it at Blackburn?

I bloody knew it.

Yes it was Blackburn.

He was another one I suspect Gus had a 'complicated' relationship with.

Unless he was here under Garcia?!? 1 in 10 Dave.
