[Albion] Matt O Riley

[Wozza]

van Dijk has done ok...

 

[GT49er]

Worst first team Albion player of the last 25 years?

Good shout! Didn't we briefly have a CB at about the same time who was just about as inept? Can't remember the name..........

 

[AlexBH]

Haven’t we already got the best Scottish midfielder in our team?!

 

[Frankworthington]

He couldn’t do anything well. Definition of useless.

There are some strong contenders for what could be called The Mark Farrington Trophy.

Are we just talking about strikers?

Because Ashley Neale is by far the worst player I have seen in a Albion shirt

1996 seems like a lifetime ago!!

 

[HyperTony]

Damien Hylton

I can't believe that no one has mentioned Damien Hilton .. ..
lol just seen the post above ..

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Darren Hughes

 

[British Bulldog]

Richard Tiltman has to be the worst, Barry Lloyds replacement for Dean Saunders.

 

[Baldseagull]

Came through the Fulham academy and will count as HG.

Interestingly it looks like they rejected him at u21 level as he went 6 months without a club, then signed for MK Dons.

He refused a contract, as he wanted to play first team football, as I discovered here

 

[Baldseagull]

Was tempted to say Henrik Larsson but don’t remember him doing that great at was it United? Didn’t watch much PL in those days. More L1

He moved a lot further South of the border from Celtic, he went to Barcelona.

Colin Hawkins.

 

[albionalex]

My Danish friend has watched him a few times for the Denmark U21's and said he's looked really good. Was surprised he wasn't called up to the senior squad for the upcoming games.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

With a name like O'Riley is anyone else a little disappointed he's not Argentinian?

 

[Mellotron]

Nah Stephen Dobbie has moved on now, sadly.

I always feel this is a little unfair on Farrington and also Tiltman as they were both playing at what is now Championship level.

Although they struggled at that level, when you compare them to some of the people (I refuse to describe them as players) who were in our team during the gory years they were much better quality.

Farrington was stepping into Mike Small’s shoes after an amazing season.
Maybe expectations were too high especially as he cost a few quid.
He was pretty bad though.

Doesn't qualify as in the past 25 years.
Tilts played in 87/88, - 35 years ago.
