Which players have been the limpest in the tackle over the years? I remember J Lloyd Samuel failing to put a Blues winger into the Trinity when advancing towards a 70/30 and costing us a goal. Who else couldn't tackle a fish supper?

Anyway, Downing.

Stephen Ireland failing to get stuck into the Bradford midfield still pisses me off.

Another Downing vote from me.
Two of my heroes, Ray Graydon and well known poster of this Parish, Chico Hamilton, I seem to remember receiving lots of stick for not "getting stuck in "

Downing. The title of this thread scared me at first. I thought we were attempting a Hull Tigers and trying to change our name.

Tony Morley wasn't exactly brave, but given his abilities on the ball i will forgive him!

Enckleman when faced with Geoff Horsfield on 03/03/03 wasn't pretty but it's really Downing's award with the others thrown in to round out the numbers.
