Don't get me wrong...I thought he was amazing. He made his debut just a couple of months after I started going as well. But he only made the starting line up 23 times for us which automatically excludes him from anyone's all time Top Ten. So I put him here on the grounds that he made an impression and that I liked him (per sonic's original post). |

Gabilondo got a medal at the end of the season so he obviously didn't do much wrong behind-the-scenes.
Oh, I wasn't making a comment about him falling foul of his lord and master, more that he rarely made appearances, as, as SY has said, he didn't fit into Paolo's system. I do remember him playing a bit crummy at Crawley away I think, or at least that's how it came across on the radio. Don't know why I remember that, but I do. He got wayyy more appearances than easyjet though... I don't think easyjet even deserves a place in the crap players list. |

You know that wasn't his fault right? He sat rotting in the reserves when we were desperate for a centre half because playing him in the first team would trigger a further payment to his previous club that we couldn't afford. Eventually we had to let hom go on a free. |

I liked Lander and don't recall any particularly poor performances from him, he just didn't fit into Paolos system
Rovers away. |

Gareth Whalley....brilliant for Crewe and i was so pleased when we signed him.
Was awfull......dodgy players who became did well were Brian Wade,Chris Ramsey,and that dodgy Aussie Keeper who was about 4 ft 8......been a long day and cant remember his name.

I'm not sure I've agreed with any suggestions so far. Someone said Chris Hay, he scored 15 goals by christmas in 97/98. If that's average then fuck knows what planet I watch football on.

Steve the tramp Jenkins, bit mouldy round the edges when he arrived but a solid if unspectacular pro.

We used to sing "where's, where's, where's, where's Whalley?" every time he played. We were only teenagers and thought we were fucking hilarious. Still do. |

Chris Hay looked like a Scottish version of Jimmy Greaves for the first few months of his time with us,only problem was it was short lived. I think average is a fair description of his record here. |

Difficult to define average isn't it? All depends on the level of the team at the time i'd say.
Take our current side. Those who are regarded as the key current players wouldnt have got near previous sides so would put them below average for that time.

Maskell, Mitchell, Jones and Fat Mac would have looked like world beaters in pretty much every Swindon side for the last 15 years. |
