    Wow, none of these (except Mido) come anywhere near our worst signings

    Frimpong for me... remember his miserable photo on his signing day. Then went down hill from there.

    Jeronimooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !

    Connor Wilkinson my least favourite. But I didn't include him earlier as I can't honestly remember signing him. There is a chance he just turned up with a kit one day and snuck on the hallowed turf.

    Frimpong had at least one decent game for us.

    Here is a candidate many will not remember:

    Tommy Ring. A former Scottish international winger signed from Everton for the prince.y sum of £2000 back in 1961. 21 appearances 1 goal. It was in the days of Joe Richards when we were skint. A very underwhelming signing.

    Because he has a contract and no one wants a striker who can’t play. The likelihood of a sale looks remote at best.

    Even if he’s offloaded on loan I doubt any club will want to make up a large percentage of his salary.

    Cancelling his contract under trade descriptions act may be an option.

    I meant Mossotto. I think we splashed out on him and got Jeronimo on a free.

    A lot of pressure on a young lad due to the price tag. Thought he was worth gambling on, he had quality.

    I haven't read through all the posts, but surely Bambo Diaby deserves a mention here. An alleged £500k transfer fee, about 20 appearances and then he gets himself a two-year ban.

    If the fee for Luke Thomas is anywhere near the reported £1m, then he's high up the list too.
