Surely Samba can't be 555? Onodi was goalie when we had to play the kids against Liverpool in the cup.

At least I can say I lived through The Golden Years.




Wow, some of shittest players in my time as a fan, one after the other. I’d be surprised if we’ve had that many whoppers in the total since ! Indeed, what a golden shower that was.

Lowest number of those I've seen live is 555 - Brian Little.
The first debut is 593 - David Evans against Barcelona but 594 - Allan Evans also made his debut that night as sub for David Evans.

The disrespect to Jed Steer here is appalling

Steer definitely played his part in our history. Most of the others in that screenshot were incredibly bad, though.

Nedeljkovic most likely to be 1000 then? Given the other 2 aren't in the match day squad yet. Unless we sign Felix or someone in the morning.
