I remember going to see Bradford City play a couple of times with a mate when I lived in Leeds and being quite impressed with how useless their centre forward was.

I still remember the glee on my mate's face when he came in to let me know Villa had signed Ormondroyd, I thought he was making it up so phoned Teamtalk to have the news confirmed. He was nowhere near the worst though.

I'm going for Micah Richards.

Certainly a candidate for biggest ****** / biggest disappointment depending on how harsh you're feeling.

Ormondroyd wasn't even the worst player we signed on the we bought him!  Callaghan was a total waste of space.

The name David Geddis should not be anywhere near this thread.  He was a vital part of the league winning squad, and scored some vital goals. We've had some rubbish over the years,  but for me it's Nigel Callaghan. The man had talent, he was just an absolute cock! If I remember correctly,  didn't Platty nearly chin him during a match for making no attempt to get to an easy pass and a steward bollocked him aswell. He was then substituted never to be seen again in a Villa shirt.

Next seen on Greece Uncovered on Sky 1 as some kind of DJ IIRC
