Current squad has to be Coxy, from the past for me it has been Gerry Armstrong who despite being slow was not the worse player to have worn the shirt also the slowest & worst player award goes to Les Berry.

Jimmy Case first time around was slow but Jimmy Case 2nd time around was like a snail.

To be fair, to the second coming of JC, he never actually ran.
For all we know he might have been really really fast, we just never saw it.

There was a certain Albion player who went out on to the pitch at The Den in an inebriated condition. Unfortunately there were no substitutes allowed in those days, and he was slower than a snail going to bed. We had to put up with him for the full ninety minutes. I will not say his name, but he has just been appointed as temporary manger of a Premiership team.

I do hope you're joking here!

I would go with Spunk Bubbles choice of Mick Ferguson, if he had been a tortoise and not a footballer he would probably have found the pace of life too fast.

Is he a joke in here? ;)

If that was in 1975 then it was not before subs.

I take it we are talking about a Tottenham legend who came to Albion for an easy life? A few days after the millwall game and a disasterous Easter that blew promotion, he broke his leg and the Albion fans jeered as he was stretchered off.

Strange because, apart from his spell with us, he seemed pretty good as both player & manager.

If Gatting moved any slower, he'd be had up for loitering.

Alex Dawson was sluggish if I`m being flattering. Didn`t matter though because he`d get to the keeper sooner or later and clatter him.
