[catfish]

Phil Beal.

Awful and slow....not good for a cb. Worse than this though?

The og at 1:22 is a thing of beauty!

He's Wikipedia page reads: On 28 May 2008, it was revealed that Hawkins had become first signing by manager Micky Adams in his second spell as manager at League One Brighton, agreeing a two-year contract. Hawkins and Adams had previously worked together at Coventry.[2] Hawkins was hugely popular with the Brighton faithful and assumed cult status at the club. Following the completion of his two-year contract, Hawkins was released by Brighton much to the dismay of many supporters.

Cult hero!?!?!?

Cult hero!?!?!?

Now where have I seen that before?

Cult hero!?!?!?

Just one letter out.

Was going to present Mick Ferguson but after watching the Colin Hawkins video I have to bow and admit defeat

Robbie Savage

Alan Biley

Has to be Phil Stant shirley. What on earth was Micky thinking of?

 

[Mackenzie]

Brilliant! But was he over 30?

I think so. Wiki reckons 31.

I actually quite liked the Hawk!

Didn't Mickey admit to signing him simply to keep the changing room rocking. It was similar with Dave Martin (not sure if name is right) who I think we signed from Northampton and was a 'character' rather a footballer, and Mickey and Corky thought it would add to the crazy gang mentality of the players.

David Livermore should have been an astute signing, but he was atrocious. Apart from Southend away when we won 2-0, but Colin also played very well so clearly Southend weren't up to much.

 

[Rugrat]

Robbie Williams (aka Lee Hendrie)

 

[Deleted User X18H]

Dave Beasant

Hawkins was clearly dreadful but Ashley Neal takes every biscuit ever for worst player of anything.

 

[Postman Pat]

Robbie Savage only a 6 game loan, but I assume was on pretty decent wages at the time.

Shockingly bad.

He was only 21 when he was at Brighton - not even close to being the worst 30+

Now, if there were an over-20 category ...

 

[John Byrnes Mullet]

Les Berry..he was signed on a free from Charlton and was utter pants.... But what about a thread with the best player we signed in his 30's or is there one already?

 

[Albion 4ever]

George Parris.

Oooohh...Walsall away.
