Three most disliked players from your times supporting blues and why.

1/ Chris Ramsay was so bad , he should be invited back as a legend !!!

2/ Neville Roach

3/ Jimmy Corbett !
 
Danny Webb- **** player full stop. Punching above his weight until his career is over. Oh and a complete arrogant, obnoxious human being.

Marek Szmid- What a waste of time.

Steven Clark- So unbelievably talented it was frightening, only wish he could of crossed a fecking ball. I was a season ticket holder in the west down by the corner flag and every home game whenever i saw him running just made my blood boil with frustration of knowing he wasnt going to cross!
 
So many names on here that it's difficult to pick 3... but I'm going for some originality in the hope that people as old as me will also think the same -

1) John Walker. Local lad who started promisingly but got worse and worse. I think in one of his last games he capped a dreadful display by scoring an own goal to give our opponents the points. Worst centre half ever.

2) Paul Roberts. Arrogant and did an enviable impression of a man with no talent. Was the only person I have ever been pleased to see sent off. Could always be relied upon to give the ball away and concede free kicks just outside the box.

3) Phil Gridelet. The only attribute he had was a decent level of fitness. He couldn't pass, head, shoot or tackle without fouling. Only one thing stopped him from playing at the highest level and that was a total lack of ability. How on earth he managed to become a pro is quite beyond me.
 
Paul Roberts - how could i forget him?

Years ago we were milling out the East Stand in the (at the time) mobile club shop when walks in Vic Jobson, he offered my dad, myself and two brothers a tour of the dressing rooms before the game, though great, fantastic.

Met legends like Crown, Clark, Mc Donut, Butler and in walks Paul Roberts, knob out and everything and he proceeded to burst in to song whilst bollock naked *shudders at the thought*

He went down even further in my estimation after that escapade!
 
John Byrne or was it roger.Anyway one decent season,when he turned out for the next season,he looked like he had ate a soffa.Then he got the ache and went home to Ireland
 
You're obviously a total idiot to suggest Lee Bradbury.

now now! look back through my posts and I've always supported him, I think he is a class player and been a great asset. However when sitting in the stand some of the comments and shouts that 'fans' give him are just pure spite. That is why I have suggested him being one of theh 3 most hated players... I don't know what he has done to **** people off but I can't think of any other players this season who have been more marmite than him

Oh right. Thanks for clearing that up.
 
1. Ian Selley- crap.

2. Sada N'Diaye- scored that goal at Plymouth, after that- crap.

3. Michael Husbands- a player who i always thought was rubbish but people seemed to rate just because he had pace. Crap.
 
1. Mark Tinkler - Though not one of the worst players ever to play for Southend he is certainly one of my most hated. I saw him and all the other ex York wasters in Chameleon a few years ago and he was an obnoxious tosser, a real horrible person.

2. Gordon Connelly - A disgrace to the club. Though Webby didn't set the world alight in his 3rd spell at the club we should always be grateful to him for substituting Connelly at half time during his first game back in charge and getting rid of him soon afterwards!

3. Carl Hutchings - A very mediocre player who left us not once but twice thinking he was too good for our club. He didn't exactly 'do a Michael Kightly' after leaving!
 
Can I have a top 30?!

Number 1 (and in the lead by some distance): Graeme Jones
Number 2: Dominic Foley (only a short SUFC career, but he was feckin' rubbish!)
Number 3: The 1998-99 version of Kevin Maher
 
Mark Rawle- Liquid cack.
Tony Scully- Wing wizard/ heap of ****.
Scott Houghton- too depressed after thinking about Tony Scully to even explain

The nearly men-
Simon Coleman- poor man's Ben Lewis
that Marney player who acted like he was doing us a big favour by 'dropping down' to play for Southend (where are you now?)
Cliff Hutchings- ****ing rubbish
Rupert Pif- made him up
 
This post has inspired me. I rarely post, usually just a reader but this got me going.

1) Have to agree with Husbands. How it used to annoy me when everyone was calling for him to come on. Great bit of work by his agent just before we signed him when it was claimed other clubs were interested. How much did we pay for that waste of space? Granted, he had pace but could barely get any power or accuracy on his shots. Love to know his career stats.

2) Danny Webb. Oh dear oh dear. His white muscle vest he used to wear out on the town sums up this utter embarassment. Once again, like Husbands, could barely generate any power. Career stats would also be funny. Did (notice past tense, has he retired?) he ever score outside the box? Then again Van Nistelrooy never did that either.

3) Mark Tinkler. Spent the lasty 5 mins trying to remember his name as I think my brain has tried to wipe the memory. He was a nasty piece of work imo. Met him once down Cameleon and he was disgusting. His northerness didn't help.

Hey kev, that must have been the same night we saw Mr. Tinkler!!
