Is it time to admit now that Gareth Farrelly was shite?

Farrelly was pish in the prem, but more than solid in Div1. Not a great, but shouldn't be anywhere near this list!

Plus, the goal didn't take a deflection..

Unless the deflection was the goal deflecting his lack of ability

Watford on a Sunday in the promotion season

Him and Ian Marshall dragged us to a win

Wasn't his biggest fan, but fcuk me, he was the scapegoat for all sorts

It certainly couldn't be Robbie Elliot who was an excellent player and one I wish we had the likes of last season. Great passer and a ferocious tackler.

No, what you're probably looking at is Steve Elliot.

Counterfoil to Oghani and Caldwell he was, as was common parlance of the teime - a 'stump'.

Has anyone said Nigel Jemson yet?

People like Gareth Farrelly don't deserve to be on a worst XI, as mentioned he scored the first goal in our play off final win. Same goes for Jardel imo, he scored against Liverpool away in our League Cup run that year. So as bad as they might have been should be spared being part of a worst XI.

Since Jemson only did about 3 games worth of shite, he's no more in than the likes of Snookes, neil matthews and mike Ring

Granted, he came with a rep so was probably more disappointing

Steve Elliot wasn't that bad, I don't think - he cost us big money at the time

We just didn't use him right

Aye - I'm not sure that there's any place for loanees in the worst XI, otherwise Jon Ostemabor and John Gregory would romp home.

I can't find a video, but my memory is of him hitting a bit of a scuffed shot with his least favoured right foot, but it didn't take a deflection, did it?

Settled the nerves nicely on the day and was actually the launchpad for a glorious decade!

right foot, edge of the box, im sure it got a huge deflection from the chap charging him down so it didn't look very visible til the replay.

He'll get a pass though.

I've not forgiven him for Stockport away, 3-0 down and back to 3-3, then he makes a balls-up and Wilbraham scores the winner for them. We had half the ground that day, and the added bonus of Suuuuuuuper John stood with us on the terraces.

I think that's what happened anyway, I've never managed an away game without getting blind drunk first.

Not sure if he'd be in the rubbishest team but saw Isiah Rankin turn out for Hendon last year. Boy likes his food.

I've said on here before that Gaz Faz was no better/worse than most of the team, he just got the earache in much the same way as Chris Eagles and young Tyrone do now.

In fact I might have said it further up in this thread almost word for word but i can't be arsed checking.

What about his goal at Arsenal when he did a Ronaldinho again Seamen?

Ray Deakin?

I left at 3-0.. Managed to convince the steward to let me back in at 3-2 after a couple of pints in the Edgely arms(?).. Wish I hadn't bothered.. Crushing disappointment.
