City booboys X1

[journolud]

Following on from the team of oddballs can we put together a team of players who have been slaughtered by the fans/ media but went on to overcome this and become great or even goodish players for the club? More or less everyone gets slagged off at some point by the keyboard warriors nowadays but there is always a number one booboy...

I'll start with the following;

Joe Corrigan- turned it round to become one of our best ever keepers
Richard Edgehill at right back
Dunney centre half
Kolorav alongside him
Paul Power- a champion at Everton at left back

Think we'll have Sterling in there somewhere, slaughtered by lots of our own fans last year.

I'm bored with my own thread already but feel free to complete the side, only players who overcame the boos, not those who were in fact shit. Manager will be the double trophy winner Pellegrini.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Joe Hayes took some stick, particularly towards the end of his time at City.

 

[BoyBlue_1985]

Never understood what Edghill did/didnt do to get booed!

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Never understood what Edghill did/didnt do to get booed!

Fuckin disgraceful that's what it was.

 

[IOWBlue]

The Goat at the start, Morley a bit and Mick Horswill ( oh no, he didnt come good).

I always thought that, worst thing is as fans we hardly boo any of the team and yet a blue, one of us used to get it terrible

 

[Didsbury Dave]

Darius Vassell upfront, without a doubt. I've seen him booed onto the pitch for City. Nicky Summerbee wide right.

Nicky sumerbee remember him scoring the crowd cheering and when the announced the scorer they booed.
Played at right back at times ,was expected to take corners on the left and be back defending on the right before the ball had even bounced crazy.
Looking back it was wrong but really didn't like Paul power or Steve lomas

 

[Dirty Harry]

Dave Bennett got plenty of shit at times at Maine Road for some reason, yet he was one of the few players who pulled his tripe out, especially in away matches.

Ian Bowyer aka Coco.

I think Summerbee telling the Kippax to fuck off wasnt the smartest move, the rag ****.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Sibierski got a lot of stick.

 

[Zubrman]

Tommy Boooooooooth.

 

[1kinkladze]

I can remember Dickov getting booed when he came to Ours playing for Blackburn I think. Couldn't believe it

 

[meeesh]

No deffo wasn't a great move that,I also remember Eddie McGoldrick telling crowd,well North Stand one night match,to sort of lay off him,he got fucked off as well,ahhhhhh the memories of being a nowty,bitter,frustrated blue

 

[CTID1988]

I can remember Dickov getting booed when he came to Ours playing for Blackburn I think. Couldn't believe it

Bloody hell yeah, i remember that

 

[Tim of the Oak]

Dave Bennett got plenty of shit at times at Maine Road for some reason, yet he was one of the few players who pulled his tripe out, especially in away matches.

John Bond slaughtered Dave Bennett after Dave told Bondy that he would reach is peak in his mid 20s.

I'm glad Dave did well with Coventry with his stand our performance in the FA Cup win over Spurs.

[stony]

Bary Conlon, the oldest looking teenager who ever played for us. Not so much booed, but I remember City fans ripping the absolute piss out of him at Gigg lane.
