Can anyone remember the useless goalkeeper who wore baggy grey tracksuit bottoms. I think he came from a London club and was easten European. Probably performed in the 90's.

Do you mean Gabor Kiraly? We had him on loan for a while, possibly under MON. Didn't he let one in through his legs at Old Trafford in the cup?

Yeah definitely Kiraly. Hungarian and think we got him from Palace, possibly on emergency loan.

We were beating Manure in the FA Cup and he let a goal go straight through him late on. We lost the replay shockingly.

That was when we seemed to draw Manure in the Cup every season.

It was an emergency loan as both Sorensen and Taylor were crocked, he actually did ok apart from that one howler. We were losing, Baros equalised and then Kiraly let a soft one in. Which at least saved us from losing the replay at VP.

How did Taylor get injured, picking up his paypacket?

Both had knees injuries iirc. Sorensen did his, Taylor played a few games and then did his as well, his body probably wasn't used to stress and strain the body takes from actually playing a few games.

Yep, in injury time (or very close to it).

I was there for that - couldn't believe it.

This thread is self-defeating. If you mention a player, you haven't forgotten him so you shouldn't have mentioned him on this thread. QED.

But, anyway... Brett Holman.

Just seen a Facebook post showing Grealish coming on as a sub for Ryan Bertrand. Genuinely couldn't remember him playing for us. 16 appearances on loan in 2014 apparently.

Ryan Bertrand was pretty good for us. There was a fair clamour to sign him up.

A recent one would be Onomah.  Best forgotten.
