How far we've come ...

[Gritt23]

Stumbled across this video earlier, and I can't believe how many crappy players are in this, and just how many of them I really liked at the time, and were sad to see go.

Bertin and Frutos for example.

really enjoyed watching that brought back some good memories.

The enigma that was/is Jake Robinson.

 

[Tomo1794]

I can honestly say I've never heard of some of these:

Nick Ward
Richard Martin
George Santos
Zoumana Bakayogo
Alistair John

To name a few.

Were any of these important first team players for us? If so I'm a bit disappointed with my Albion knowledge! Guessing (hopefully) that most were youth/loan players who didn't feature very often for us.

Enjoyed that. Charlie, Chippy, Butters....jumpers for goalposts...ahhhh.

Alistair John was a winger on loan from Charlton (plays non-league now I think) and was one of the worst players i've seen for the Albion.

Zoumana Bakayogo hardly played for us and is now left-back for Tranmere I think.

George Santos was a journeyman centre half who played quite well in the short time he was with us.

I always thought Bertin was a very good player.

Wasn't Richard Martin the one who got released and went to Man City?

Just looked him up and he currently plays for the Puerto Rico Islanders so nah!

Made no appearances for us either, hence the no in-play pictures of him!

I WAS right!

I know it included loan spells but Andy Whing was here a lot longer than I seem to remember.
