Worst Albion XI

[Camp Freddy]

Following on from earlier thread - what do you think ?
1. Peterson - some tough competition from Rust, but the slip against Gillingham (my sides still ache now) has secured the jersey.
2. Munday - "You're crap Munday!" "He's crap any day of the week!"
3. Sturgess - Conference standard at best
4. Codner - for the two seasons immediately before he got banged up - his quality at other times is duly noted.
5. Glenn Thomas - single worst performance ever in an albion shirt but did'nt spoil an otherwise superb stag day!
6. Neal - inherited none of his mothers talent.
7. Wescott - couldnt cross or dribble which blighted his career as a winger.
8. Moralee - ponce
9. Farrington - ponce
10. McDougald - not a bad player but could'nt score goals (see no.7 above)
11. Armstrong - fairy

Manager - Marin Hinselwood Assistant - Barry Lloyd

 

[mona]

A very bad team that could be made worse by bringing in Pethick for Codner and Tiltman for McDougald.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Harsh on Pethick, who had his moments...

Codner better than David Lee, surely?...

 

[Simster]

I couldn't take an Albion SHITE XI seriosuly unless it included Damian Hilton, Grant Horscroft & Denny Mundee.

 

[fatboy]

Pethick was good.

Hinshelwood is also responsible for bringing on about 5 of our current first team.

 

[Biscuit]

Teddy Maybank on the BENCH at least.

My AUNT informs me he ended up on blind date.

 

[Ernest]

Take any of the jabroni's that played for us at Gillingham after Dick Tight had sacked all the decent players on a wage bigger than £100 a week, oh yes this was after he had promised £2million to strengthen the team

 

[Schrödinger's Toad]

Nicky Rust

Ross McNally - in no way up to it
Glen Thomas
Darren Carr - never really justified £20,000
Peter Smith

Valur Fannur Gislason - ridiculously lightweight
Jason Peake - had talent, but in the end a waste of money
David Lee - ditto, only less talent

Michael Mahoney-Johnson - just couldn't be arsed
Lawrence Davies
Damien Hilton


Of the players I have seen.

Teddy Maybank on the BENCH at least.

That is nonsense! Teddy Maybank was a quality footballer - he would walk into any Brighton team of the last 15 years.

 

[Napper]

Not sure if they were the worst but what about "the Fox" brothers, I remember the buzz on the North stand the day one of them played at only 17 I think.....turned out to be a pile of poo......Or Simon Funnell - He was pretty bad as well.. . . . .Andy , Andy Kennedy any one ?

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

jeff wood should be manager

 

[Biscuit]

That is nonsense! Teddy Maybank was a quality footballer - he would walk into any Brighton team of the last 15 years.

That's the best bit of football, different opinions.

Personally I think he was shyte.

 

[Titanic]

He was premiership quality 'shyte' though - which is a totally different league to most of the names on this thread!

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

paul (left foot) Sturgess was not a bad player

 

[Biscuit]

Paul Brooker on his off days was truly useless.

Paul Brooker on his good days could win you the match.

 

[DJ NOBO]

Brian McKenna - One dreadful game against Boro (circa 1990)

John Crumplin - His crapness earnt him cult status
Steve Gatting - Sorry, I just never thought he was any good
Gary O'Reilly - Stay at Palace, mate
Keith McPherson - Not exactly Danny Cullip was he?

Danny Simmonds - Student who ran around a lot, but to no avail
Denny Mundee- Silly name, nonentity of a player
Dale Jasper - As a small boy I could still spot the bad apple
Clive Walker - Useless even when he was good

Andy Kennedy - Did he really play for Rangers?
Stafford Browne - A reminder of how far we've come

Manager:
Jeff Wood

Of the players I have seen.

Probably the worst team so far. Davies, Pony-Johnson and Hilton were absolutely tragic. When each of them signed it created a bit of a buzz but as soon as they'd done ten minutes you just slipped back into Priestfield induced resignation. Hilton made his debut at Barnet and he was about 8 foot tall. The first decent cross came in after about 10 minutes and he ducked underneath it.

Gislasson was as bad. A loan signing from Arsenal and we thought we'd had it right of. Played about 10 games and touched the ball twice.

I saw Westcott the other night at Hastings playing for Horsham and I'm pleased to say that if anything he's got slightly worse. If that was possible.
