Worst City player you've seen live/worst City squad

[chaddblue]

Tbf, that’s the first question I would have asked.

Good point, me too

Also tbf either of us will probably have scored more goals than him

Can't make my mind up between Robert Hopkins, Tony Vaughan or Rick Holden.

Not sure Holden was the worst player but I wasn’t half gutted when Reid sold Michael Hughes, talked up Figo and got him instead!

Wayne Bridge by a country mile. Flattered to deceive but was a winger’s dream. Guided attackers towards goal rather than away and invited them to score rather than brave any form of tackle.

But my memory of him is eclipsed by Margetson. Indirect free kick. Hold the ball Martin. Or instead why not drop it to Mike Sherin for him to pass for an immediate goal - relegation loomed large. He must be some coach to get the gig he has ( most likely with a mantra “ do as I say, not what I did”!!)

Antoine Sibierski.

Carl Shutt for me. Will never forget him getting outpaced by an old Brian Kilcline on New Years day 1994 stood on the open terrace at Newcastle. Doubt there was 1k of City there and the highlight was a conga to keep warm.

I was there, Christ that game was a shocker, did we lose 1-0 - erased it from memory. Shutt certainly had a typo in his name

 

[Mikejl]

I'm tempted to say John Ryan. But I have a feeling we had another FB at about that time who was even worse, whose name is a blank.

Geoff Lomax? Ian Davies both around this time and both woeful

 

[worsleyweb]

David Brightwell and Frontzeck and Charvet

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Antoine Sibierski.

maybe

Corradi

hmmm

sun jihai

wrong

We have had far worse than these 3.

From memory it was 2-0 with cole scoring them both. Absolutely freezing, cold winds sweeping across the terrace. Back in the days when it was a chore not a pleasure to attend. Felt hopeless at the time.

some one has already said Simon Tracy he may not be the worst but he will be up there,my mates always used to laugh and say `he`s got his gloves on the wrong feet`

 

[Fame Monster]

Frank Dyer - 1895/1896 season, fat, lazy, overweight, worked as a barman in the local boozer when he wasn't playing, only thing he served up for City was absolute shite.

He lives in the same village as me and drinks in the same boozer.

Will relay the views on here to him when I see him next [emoji23][emoji23] I only ever remember him being in goal in the 5-0 loss to Salford rags though.

What a great post , if it wasnt for Swales mis-management we would have retained our position as a top six club and been able to keep the likes of Trevor Francis , Garry Flitcroft , Clive Wilson , Paul Stewart , Mark Lillis , SWP and others, all excellent players who were sold to keep the club afloat during and after Swales reign

Excellent and Lillis do not go together. Committed I would say yes but not excellent.

 

[greasedupdeafguy]

His personal circumstances played apart but Savic was pretty dreadful.

Yes he was. Remember he almost cost us the 3-2 game against Spurs in 2012 with his mistakes. Hardly recognisable now from then as a player.

A massive miss when he left the club , and excellent in my opinion

 

[The First Earl]

Barry Conlon all day long. Not only the worst City player I've seen but most likely the worst player I've ever seen to play for anybody.

Perhaps someone can create a topic for worst ever from any team, I've no idea how to do it.
