He was the first choice rb 'til injuries ruined him & that's with Zabba at the club.
So he was pretty good.
Welcome back.

Welcome back.
Also, IIRC, the 1-0 derby win (Geovanni) in Sven's season.Wonder if Oldham are still waiting for the sell on?
Was the go to right back for the big games in 2011-12, especially played well in the 1-6.
I always iike Micah, but reading this thread is like listening to MPs praising some now deceased opponent who they hated and abused when they were alive.
Micah came in for unmitigated stick I seem to remember, not only for his limited footballing ability (and crossing in particular), but also questionable commitment with the famed "jogging back".
Still, he's a blue and a good lad in my book.
I'm glad clubs have been doing this more and more in recent years. Far too often, especially back in the 70s and even as late as the 90s, the superstars of various teams who retired were often left on the scrapheap. For example, it took Neil Young forty years and a diagnosis of terminal cancer to finally be granted a testimonial. These days, thank god, players like Micah won't lack a purpose after their playing career if it ends prematurely. They might seem like automatons to us, but footballers are young lads given far too much money before they know how to deal with it - and then their career ends as most other peoples' begin, meaning they never adjust to living a more frugal lifestyle. The number of footballers who blow their cash and end up bankrupt, depressed, alcoholic, it doesn't bear thinking about. At least City have been responsible enough to know when a player has been let down by his body and essentially cut down in his prime, so they'll give him a nice position and a comfortable wage and Micah can carry on serving the game he loves.
Kinda wish they'd do the same for Michael Johnson.
