442: worst ever Vale player

[Biddulph_PV]

How could I forget Exodus??! The winner with several lengths to spare.

 

Yes, easily THE worst player I've ever seen pull on the black and white shirt.

Jermaine Holwyn. We paid a fee for him, he missed his first season with a knee injury, came back, his debut was when we were 4-0 up to QPR...

[fuzzyvalefan]

While I think it has to be Exodus, not just because he was utterly abysmal and often played ahead of far superior players but the fact that he was the poster boy of the the calamitous Gannin reign. Just one big package of crapness.

 

some honourable mentioned a from me:

 

Craig Rocastle- useless dollop of a midfielder

 

Paul Edwards- like trying to row a boat with one oar

 

Roger Koordes- supposed to be the new Guppy, wasn't

 

Sean McClare- midfielder who couldn't pass, or tackle, or shoot

 

Chris Slater- miles out of his depth

 

Kyle Perry- see above

 

Tobias Mikkelsen- Villa loanee with all the strength and heart of a goldfish

 

Craig James- calamity James

 

Jamie Guy - anyone lucky enough to witness his performance at Bradford in the Jpt was treated with a masterclass of ineptitude

 

Kevin Gall- not a professional football

 

Danny Glover- played ahead of better players by his dad. Should have been nowhere near the first team.

 

Neil McKenzie- shudder

 

Ross Davidson- the other half of the Mckenzie/Davidson midfield partnership from hell that dredged new lows of crap away at Bury under Glover

 

Callum Willock- panic signing who looked like he had won a competition to be a footballer

 

Ville Viljanen - of course

 

Richard Walker- to call him a donkey would be disrespectful to donkeys the world over

 

Scott Brown-carved a so-so career in the lower leagues but was utterly abysmal in a Vale shirt

 

Calvin Andrew- see above, 1 goal scored with his arse in 23 games sums it up

 

Martin Paterson- and finally one from this season, to be booed coming onto the pitch can only be reserved for a particularly special type of crap

 

May well think of more and add them tomorrow. This thread is fun.

Kevin Finney

Kyle Perry

David Riley

 

I do have to say though, that game earlier this season saw one of the most calamitous performances ever from MacIntosh before he was hauled off after about 25 mins.

 

Can't include finney as he's responsible for saving rudgie from the sack. I also thought Riley was a decent player and nowhere near the worst. Perry was poor though slater was far worse. Totally out of his depth. Seeing an aging Macclesfield player run rings around him was one of the worst performances I've ever seen. He was far worse than exodus (who was bad), its just that he was gannons man.

Lawrie Pearson end of competition.

[LancyTony]

Jermaine Holwyn.

 

He would be my choice, which is a bit of a shame, as I believe he was a nice lad, and, although the QPR match was an obvious nightmare, we only lost 2 of the games he played for us - both 0-1 away

[MattW]

I hate polls like this.

 

Oh right forget it then!

sorry, should have added my choice never included our present clods, baring Smith and Street, and as bad as he was he could show our present squad a thing or two...

Surely you are having a very big laugh, Steggles was dire, slower than stop.

[Torquay Valiant]

You will never win on this thread because we are in L1 (tier 3, we've been reasonably successful (ish) for a number of years (even counting relegation then consolidation etc).

 

You are not comparing the garbage signings from recent times (exodus etc) to the dross (and it was utter & total dross) from the mid 60's,late 70's & early 80's. Exodus was streets ahead of some of the ***** we had to put up with. Nobody can remember that ***** (or wants to), except us few..............................................................................................you know who you are lol.

 

TIMES WERE REAL BAD THEN.

[Guppy 4 England]

Danny Glover, couldn't finish his dinner and only played because his dad was manager.

[Paul6754]

Kenny Todd, Vale paid Wolves 37k for him in the late 70's, he didn't "look" like a footballer.

Bob Delgado, immense for Chester when they played Vale, awful at Vale.

[darren1810]

Martin Henderson or Jermaine Holwyn

[valiant steve]

Exodus and Villjanen for me.

[Trentham Lakes Valiant]

Kevin Gall, as previously mentioned.

Also, Reg Edwards. Terrible understudy for Alan Boswell in the early 70's
