Infamous Players at your club

**Da Real Rover** · 31/10/2006, 9:11 AM

its gota be darren jack for us, you havnt seen a donkey till you have seen this lad 'try' to play.

Alex Nesovic is up there for Harps- good player but a total ****head who was sacked after a few months. He then went on to get kicked out of nearly every club in the league!

I remember some lad (I think his name was Kevin Doherty) who was meant to be a s**t-hot ex Celtic player and was subbed after 19 minutes and literlly told to f*** off.

Jason Lydiate (aka Jason L'Idiot) played with David Beckham in various youth teams, but for us the only thing he did was score a cracking volley from 30 yards. Wrong end though.

There's plenty more as well!

Several players spring to mind for Waterford.

Luigi Fulloni: (a bit before my time) Argentine chap, signed in the aftermath of the '78 World Cup. Older folks say that before a league game, he was on the pitch impressing the crowd with his skills, however as soon as the game got going, headless chicken springs to mind.

Tiao: always remember this one. Brazillian chap signed during the 1984-85 season. I cant remember much from around this time but THAT free kick is still talked about down Suir side.

Duncan Burns: Drunken Burns more like.

Mitchell Ryan: Has to be the worst keeper ever to play for Waterford. Just ask Wayside Celtic. Trained in Club LA every Thursday to Sunday.

Haakon Johansson, Norwegian signed at the start of Tommy Lynch's reign. Looked **** hot. Scored two cracking goals on his debut against St. Francis. Following week, upped sticks and left.

Trond Debes: Another Norwegian. Played for two seasons. Absolute rubbish. Couldnt score on the pitch to save his life but off........ well thats another story.

Donal 'Donuts' Golden: scored in that famous 1-0 win against Rovers in the Cup in '97 but that was about it for Donal.

Jared Sterling: one of the many blanks bought during the Sheephead era along with luminaries Tim McGrath, Jason Kabia and Lee Doherty.

Gary O'Neill: One of Jimmy McGeough's gems. One of the hottest young prospects when he came to us in 2003. Left after 7 games in very mysterious circumstances. Rumour had it that he had some unsavoury 'friends' to get away from.

Paul Ometeso: Couldnt get his game for Carlow IT yet Magic Mike signed him.

What about Jose Quintongo? He threw a lot of shapes for the Blues but he left quietly in the end.

Yestas Maradasis......started off as the great new imported talent for us last season....but his missus wouldnt let him go to games coz he had to go fishing instead....

Mike Small (Sligo Rovers). He was the best man at a wedding in UK and asked the Club to switch a game from Saturday to Friday so that he could play the game and then go to the wedding.

And that's exactly what happened.

Colin P O'Brien - Useless, Lazy, Talented Waster

Jamie Nolan - Useless Lazy, Talentless Waster who was almost lynched after giving the Shed the finger

Paddy Doyle - Tried his heart out, had the rather unfortunate handicap of being crap. After leaving Limerick came down next season and got the winner for St.Francis, people actually fainted

Stephane Jauny - Bald French chap who I'm convinced Mike Kerley found rummaging through his bins. Ran himself almost to death up and down the touchline even when the ball was on the other side of the pitch

Bit harsh on Haakon, Partizan, he was there for a bit longer than that, and scored again. I think he played 7 games, the last being the same game as Debes' debut.

But my vote for the Blues' worst player you did mention, Jason Kabia. The most useless f*cker ever to pull on a shirt! For anyone!

LOL!!

Let's hope this looper is playing friday then!

At Rovers we've had too many infamous **** players to list. Oh ok: Keith Doyle, Gareth Kelly, Andy Moore, Willo McDonagh, Gavin McDonnell, Stephen Gough, Paul Caffrey etc etc etc. **** beyond comprehension.

dont talk so badly about our new boss please

**BobtheDrog** · 02/11/2006, 11:47 AM

Four names come to mind

Ray Wallace older, fatter, slower less talented brother of former leeds striker Rod

Two lads we signed from cardiff on loan at the same time one of whom is now banned from attending football matches anywhere in the UK think it was Dai Thomas but cant be sure.

But number one on the all time list is Dave Smith 100's of appearances for english clubs at championship level about 4 for the drogs the best of which was pure and utter muck
