Neale Fenn - the 4th official generally covers more ground in 90 mins

Robbie Hedderman must be the slowest i have seen in a blues jersey for a long time!

We had a lad played for us a few years ago, when captaining the U21 side the ref flipped the coin and asked him "Heads or Tails?"

He looked at the ref blankly and said "I don't know".

It doesn't get much slower than that.

Although since Biscuits is still reistered with us he'd probably win it

Eddie Gormley

In his last game back in 2005 against UCD he came on for twenty minutes or so and barely moved from the one spot. He had no pace, just limited mobility. He even managed to get himself booked for a wreckless challenge.

**Hitman** · 25/07/2007, 1:22 PM

Brian O' Callaghan looked fairly sluggish during his brief cameos so far.

Scandalous thing to say about the great man. he had pace, he just couldn't be arsed moving in his last game

Dodge, he was 36 and it was probably his first run out he'd had in a long time back then. That night he barely moved and when he did it was only in mere centimetres from his standing position. In his prime he certainly could move but in that game......well to give you an idea, he couldn't even tuck his shirt into his shorts his belly was so big.

In fairness to him, he's lost a bit since then.

**Dodge** · 25/07/2007, 2:38 PM

Point I'm making was he couldn't be arsed

others are slow, have always been slow and always will be slow.

So basically take it back about Gormley or you're barred (even though I can't bar anyone...)!!!!!!!

And he was STILL the best player on the pitch!

EDIT: Used to love those reckless challenges - you could rely on at least one a game. From what I remember he hardly ever got himself sent off because he was one of those

He's not that type of player

players who can get away with loads of stuff that recognised "hard men" wouldn't.

WAYNE BYRNE

Without doubt the slowest player in the world !!!

I've seen double decker buses turn quicker than him.....So glad he's gone.

**bellavistaman** · 25/07/2007, 3:02 PM

Hutton for Derry looked ridiculously slow against us a few weeks ago, was flaed for pace all night.

When I saw him, he was slow.
