Worst City players you remember

Carl Shutt (I think that's how it was spelt)

We picked him up from Birmingham Reserves who were then in the Old Third Division and he walked straight into our first team who were in the top (First Division).
Could never understand how a player who was not good enough for Birmingham made our first team.

Remember going up to Newcastle on New Years day 93 or 94. Carl Shutt was playing upfront marked by the old Coventry City stalwart Brian Kilcline. I remember vividly the two of them engaging in a sprint for the ball and it was like watching a match in slow motion. Needless to say we got beat.

At least 3 of his players (Bowyer, Mccrae and Reeves) played in major finals for City, plus Carrodous was sub in 74.
If I was going to list a team it would include around 8 players from 97-98, plus a few who weren't even good enough the following season.
 
Gordon Dalziel. I remember one game around 83-84 time I was at a match with my dad ( i was about 10) and he was impersonating a winger on the Main Stand side.. It was pissing down in this game, and I swear down now, the ball ventured away from his control( again) into near the centre circle and he ran to get it.. but the shelter of the Maine stand dissapeared and he actually ran back to the touchline out of the rain. I seen this with my own eyes and I remember my dad doing his nut in over it. Of that time and moving into the mid eighties we had some absolute Shite in the form of Peter Bodak, David Johnson, Gordon Smith, Lawrie Cunnigham, Trevor Christie, Robert Hopkin( horrible twat) etc etc I remember thinking, could it get any worse being a blue..little did I know what the next decade would hold.

Steve Lomas......complete con man....use to shout and wave his hands a lot.......but if you watched him closely, he would pull out of tackles !......bit like Gary Megson....but with less talent !
