    Waste of money signings.

    Following on from the other thread there’s a good number to make my blood run cold down the years.

    Some who were decent elsewhere who were s h I t for us.

    John Deehan

    Craig Shakespeare

    Paul Williams

    Matt Carbon

    Stuart Evans

    Joe Mayo ( Joey “ no brain “ as the Brummie used to chant! )

    Leon Barnett

    Ryan Donk

    Gianni Zuiverloon

    Christ......the list is endless.

    Geoff Hurst.

    I watched him in awe from behind the goals at the brummie end and all I saw was him run away from any ball near him. (It was his later days to be fair)

    He was no better as player manager at Telford after his time with us.

    Wasn't Ryan Donk only a loan signing? If we're throwing loan signings in then the two we had when we got relegated were bad enough...Sturridge & Krychowiak

    Many of these players did well elsewhere so it's down to the club not the players.

    Lukewarm has to be the worst.
    I quite liked Joe Mayo.
