Excited when they signed but turned out to be rubbish

The list for me is very long, i would bore most with it so i will give you back 10 minutes of your life going through it. Special mention goes to Mr Pearce for the most disappointing manager.

He raised our profile when he signed, our marquee signing massively under achieved, one or two decent moments but that was it.

Though in the football scheme of things Robinho didn't do much for us, I think in the broader sense he had the intended impact. Sounds daft but the goal when he lifted the ball over almunia in the 3-0 against Arsenal that's when the new ownerships potential impact really sunk in for me, really got me excited about our prospects in a way I hadn't been since I was a nipper (when I didn't know any better!).

Lee Badbuy.

If I recall correctly, he made his City debut at Burnley in a friendly pre-season and scored an hat-trick. I remember coming out of Turf Moor thinking WOW what a signing, he's like "Shit off a Shovel". Well I was almost right. He was shit.

 

[Sky Blue]

Lee Peacock.

 

[youngbob]

Robinho.

 

[Semper aggressus]

Mangala.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Carl Griffiths, Martin Phillips.

Carl Griffiths was similar to Samaras where they were strikers signed in a period where we were desperate for goals. I had high hopes for both and they never came close to the impact we needed.

Castillo Martin buster Phillips. Was gutted about bojinov but that was nothing to do with being gash.
