Your worst Albion striker?

[Soul Finger]

Was responding to the thread title, rather than the article. Tho the article is plenty sloppy filler, has to be said, with Leon Knight just bunged in as an afterthought. C- for the article.

I wrote it.

Leon Knight isn't an afterthought. The headline, again, reads The Good (listed), The Bad (Farrington, Mahoney-J), The... (Knight). I think it's 'plenty' clear, to be fair.

Thanks for highlighting C- as your mark. I must do better next time.

Like others have said
TILTMAN & FARRINGTON
A massive fall from grace having started watching in mid 70's with the likes of Binny Ward Mellor Ritchie Robinson Conner Saunders
To 10 years later watching the likes of TILTMAN

Damien Hilton; the speed, mobility and ball control of Herman Munster. More like a springboard for opposition counter attacks than a target man.

To be fair I thought Damien was a tad quicker than Herman, though not as good in the air !

That said toss up ...Hilton or Farrington.

 

[glasfryn]

Just give it to Farrington and be done with it.

thats the man
and if you were on the east terrace and the Albion were kicking towards the south goal in the first half you might just as well go home for the second.
as everything went down the left

I would also throw in the name of Federico Turienzo. Perhaps more for the sheer disappointment following my high hopes of a flairmeister pioneer being crushed by the realisation that he was in fact a bit pants.

Seconded. I remember being unreasonably excited when he signed. And with his first touch in his first game, someone flicked on a goal kick and he crashed a first time half volley from about 35 yards that clipped the bar. I nearly ejaculated with excitement. That was literally the best thing he did in the Albion shirt. Such a crying shame.

Sorry but you're going for the same cheap clickbait option that our illiterate Timmy goes for, piggybacking on the huge numbers of NSC users, counting on us all clicking the link. Not impressed. You should be paying [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] and/or REMF for the plug. Your tatty local rag editor daresay thinks you are cutting edge bees-knees on account of the number of page hits. But NSC knows the score

Oh dear. l can see this escalating already ... queue Soul Fingers retort ...

 

[Munkfish]

Liam Dickinson and Craig Davies were shite for how much money we paid for them at the time and the league we were in.

I would have thought McPhee, Ramsey, Robinson and Gatting were all massively over rated at the time as they were local lads, all never achieved anything of great success.

This is the second time I've posted an article of mine and I've been doing it six months now.

It's has nothing to do with 'click baiting'. I don't even know what that is!

It comes out in print so the web bit is an aside.

Seriously, what does it have to do with REMF??!

You're clearly on the wind-up but, as I have no idea who you are, or what you are going on about, your opinion - which is clearly very important to you - isn't going to result in me getting wound up on this occasion.

Thanks for having an unfounded and unnecessary pop though.

Another for Farrington. I remember having high hopes for Meade, but his first touch was so so shocking and was just a bit of a lump.

meades go faster hair didnt help him either hehe

 

[Seagull kimchi]

Mick Ferguson - I saw him score a tap in when we won 6-1. Other than that what a melt. Never tried - couldn't try -I dunno. Made Les Berry look like an athlete and Alan Biley look like a match winner.

 

[Ernest]

Gary Hart, not even worth a jock strap let alone a set of TRACKSUITS, god knows how he got so many contracts at the Albion

 

[miffy6]

Joe Gatting

 

[army ali]

Frank Stapleton anyone?
Teddy Maybank anyone? (I know this will really upset One Teddy Maybank, but hey, you have to live on the edge)

For me - Richard Tiltman - easier to score than miss against Palace in 87.

 

[Pevenseagull]

I never once thought 'it's time to bring Phil Andrews on'

You know EXACTLY what you're doing mate. Exactly the same as Timmy does.

Yeah l do know what your are saying Enrest, he was a trier, and in his first couple of seasons had pace, but that was about it.

 

[mickybha]

Richard Tiltman for me, the decision to move one Dean Saunders out wide and replace him at center forward with RT still baffles me to this day

I write for a living, and have done for over 15 years.

My articles are meant to be fillers. Sometimes nostalgic, sometimes quirky, and sometimes - in some people's opinions - shit.

They are written for a weekly newspaper - i.e. online isn't the priority - so have to be a certain type of material.

If you don't like them, fine, I can live with that. Football is, after all, all about opinions, and it's all the better for it.

I don't need to justify myself to a panting keyboard warrior so I will bid you good day.

But, I politely suggest you cease spouting off rubbish about me, and who I work for, on a public forum, forthwith. Thanks.
