Title: Worst Swindon XI From Last 10 Years
Post by: sonicyouth on Saturday, April 27, 2013, 13:10:33
This should be easier. Trying to avoid loan players and a minimum of 5 senior appearances...

Griemink

Edds
Aljofree
Comyn-Platt
Casal

Shakes
Prutton
Hewlett (200 senior appearances and the thought still makes me shudder)
Brown

Thorpe
Dossevi

The striking options really are horrifying. I will have a think then post up my dream team.

Aljofree was a good defender, just a twat.

If you included loanees you could easily put out an XI of awful strikers. Interesting really given that in the best XI thread there were 4 or 5 excellent options

I think you may have the title wrong, or is this supposed to be ironic?

Comazzi ahead of Aljofree.

Pretty sure there are worse strikers than Dosser too.

This is my first effort - I could easily pick another side and will do later.

Lanzano

Jenkins
Reeves
Frampton
Rose

Prutton
Pook
Risser

Onibuje
Thorpe
Pericard

The best 11s are all similar - but I think there will be plenty of different looking sides for this one!

Ah yes, Comazzi just about qualifies.

Dossevi earns a special place for being such a massive letdown after we all wet ourselves in pre-season

Who was the French winger we signed under King? Didn't we end up forking out a fortune on him and he never played?

Played at Boston in the ldv. I think. I was there, but can't be sure...

Evans was far better than Griemink and O'Hanlon was decent enough, just ruined it by joining that bigger club

Who can forget Eric Sabin!


Title: Re: Worst Swindon XI From Last 10 Years
Post by: BruceChatwin on Saturday, April 27, 2013, 15:10:57
Trevor Benjamin

Ricky Shakes
A. Young (c)
B. Sturrock
Alan O'Brien

V. Pericard
Leon Clarke
E. Sabin

Thorpedo
Calvin Andrew
Dossevi

I've decided to go all out attack on the assumption ball retention and defence won't matter with Trevor Benjamin in goal. Alan Young commands from centre-back, Leon Clarke the box-to-box midfielder and Pericard flying up and down the wing.

Alan Young was a forward wasn't he?

Yes, but that is a team of shit strikers

Albert Jarrett was the shittish footballer I ever watched in a Town shirt. Nothing can beat that.

Of course he does. What about Neale Fenn? Or something like that. Played at Palace and was shit. Subbed after about 20mins.

John Sutton had a very brief career here, might be outside the 10 years now.

I still think Slabber was ok, his all round play was ok, his finishing wasn't. Can name plenty worse strikers.

Vincent Pericard is worth a shout for worst Town footballer I've ever seen.


Title: Re: Worst Swindon XI From Last 10 Years
Post by: Nemo on Sunday, April 28, 2013, 19:44:22
Slabber and Calvin Andrew were pretty similar, decent support but couldn't score in a brothel with a tenner wrapped round their cocks.

My favourite Ashikodi moment was him coming on without about ten minutes left and contriving to get booked before he'd touched the ball.

Anyone remember the Belgian guy we brought on vs Stoke under King? Think he got about half an hour.

Lilian Nalis was a cracking player.

Risser in this thread? You are joking!!

Whalley was a disaster as was Rose.

There must be at least 15 strikers.

I would have Dossi at 15th due to effort as the poor cunt really tried.

Yes, but by the time he got to us he needed a zimmer frame - Just like David Geddis a few years ago.

Wasn't 'Spud' Herring touted as a star for the future when he made his debut, where did it go wrong.

Aaron Brown of all players destroyed him for shitty at trashton gate i remember. He went to pieces that day.Don't think he played again after that for us

Applicable to Pook and Hewlett too to be fair to them.

Suprised Daisy Duke hasn't been mentioned given some of the vitriol he attracted. Always thought he was alright myself.
