Most 'disliked' fulham XI

[A Humble Man]

What about Peter Baah

[Holders]

Not disliked but poor players or got up my nose:

Malcolm Webster
Mike Pentecost
Alan Pinkney
Stan Horne
Jari Litmanen
Zat Knight
Zamora

Managers: Sanchez, Hughes.

[EJL]

Orlando Sa?

Not sure if it's possible to dislike a face like this:



Always gave his all in the few appearances he made. Great goal up at Norwich as well.

[ron]

Ron, do you remember that 'brilliant' Stan Horne own goal?

Oh, I do !  He had the ball at his feet, thought better of passing forward, then turned round and called the goalie (I had thought that it was Macedo, but in an earlier thread on these learned pages, another contributor said that it must have been Webster), who came out to collect the ball (as the laws permitted then).

Attempting to be flash, Horne got his toe under the ball to flick it up into the goalie's hands, but of course flicked it over his head into the empty goal.

Truly cringeworthy, it makes me wince 45years on!

Ian Seymour,
Probably unreasonable of me but as a "so called promising young keeper" he was exposed by a poor team in front
of him and I always thought he was out of his depth.  
And don't get me started on Frank Large!

[Holders]

I have to disagree about Ian Seymour if you're saying he's someone you disliked.  A good keeper whose career was cut tragically short.

                                                           Brian Williamson

Mike Pentecost                   Geoff Banton              Stan Horne            David Moreline

                     Wayne Kerrins                 Des Bremner          Cliff Jones

                     Johnny Byrne                  Frank Large             John Watson


There was nothing wrong with Byrne and Jones, they just signed for us when they were past it.

[Travers Barney]

Not disliked (apart from MARK COOPER) as such but just RUBBISH...

1. Perry Digweed - Discovered while playing parks football should have stayed playing parks football.

2. Jim Hicks - Gangly and just not good enough.

3. Kevin Hoddy - Just not up to 1st team standard and showed it when he played.

4. Mark Cooper - Probably the most hated Fulham player in history. Simon Morgan said "Cooper was not a very popular member of the squad". UNDERSTATEMENT

5. Geoff Banton - Positional sense and reading of the game not good enough.

6. Gary Elkins - Couldn't beleive he won youth caps for England, we must have been bad then.

7. Barry Friend - Although 2 stints at Fulham, he spent most of his career in the Isthmian League.

8. Trevor Lee - Made 1 appearence for Fulham and it was the last of his career...enough said.

9. John Watson - Lewington admitted he made a mistake signing him, how right he was..Rubbish.

10.  Colin McCurdy - Lacked pace for League football.

11. Wayne Kerrins - More non league than league.

Subs:
George Georgiou - No speed and crap ball control for an attacker.
Gary Cobb - A nightmare off the pitch by all accounts and rubbish on it.
Lee Barkus - Branfoot's blue eyed boy...says it all.
Junior Lewis - Tall and gangly midfield player who done nothing at Fulham.
Martin Ferney - Midfield player who's passing let him down and someone who Jimmy Hill thought the world of.

God we've had some rubbish at Fulham. I'd have all of hongkongfulham's team infront of mine...

MOR....Teale should be in front of Digweed I reckon for October 79 reasons alone!

If anyone is wondering why Michael Brown has to be included:

Brown tackle on Giggs

A horrible player with no talent. Covered it by being a dirty, aggressive player which made him look 'committed'. I was embarrassed everytime he played for Fulham.

Appalling and yet quite remarkably people, though few in number, still subscribe to the view that this kind of competiveness is what we need

The tackle on Sean Davis at the Cottage was even worse.

Horrible as you say.

[Holders]

Dave Moreline, now there's a name from the past. An ineffective  right back who couldn't put in a sliding tackle (probably not even allowed now). Superseded, thank goodness, by John Cutbush.

[St Eve]

Frank Large, Stan Horne, Alan Pinkney, Zat Knight, Eddie Johnson, Phil Senderos

Horrible player. He is everything wrong with the 'get stuck in' mentality in this country.

One of my favourite Fulham moments was reading that we got rid of Michael Brown.

I have put a full 4 4 2 down, but in the order they came to me.

Jan Lastuvka (never made a save)
Steve Archibald (disliked his obvious underhand tactics during corners)
Cooper (forgot first name cost us 30k when we had no money and put in no effort - then always scored against us)
Ian Pearce (apart from Chelsea game never showed why he should be in the side)
Wayne Kerrins (a bit harsh, but I still have the sight of him being torn apart by Craig Johnstone engrained in my memory)
Ahmad Elrich (worst player in recent years truly dreadful)
John Watson (worst player ever)
Niclas Jensen (awful defender by the time we got him)
John Salako (put in sublime crosses to absolutely no one)
Steven Davis (sums up Sanchez era along with Bouazza and several others)
Tyrone James (first player my dad considered was not good enough to wear the Fulham strip - tainted by that really)

Managed by Sanchez - worst mistake we ever made. Almost worth Dempsey missing against Liverpool, allowing us to be relegated solely to get rid of him

You have got to be joking including Ian Pearce, fp.gif shame we haven't players like him who despite having an injured ankle played on see below

Pearce was praised as 'Best player in pre season' by then Fulham manager Chris Coleman. His admirable resolve was demonstrated when in a 1–1 draw against Portsmouth he played through a painful foot injury only to score an equaliser before time and secure a critical point for Fulham.[2]

What about Peter Baah

I liked him  fp.gif.  I was young.

[Snibbo]

Frank Large - impossible to replace Alan Clarke but God Almighty he was never going to do it.
Peter Storey - a thug on and off the field
Michael Brown - see Peter Storey.

Funny, a few people have mentioned Stan Horne but my memory of him was that he was o.k.
Also Ian Seymour - one of the best and bravest goalkeepers I ever saw, until he lost his confidence. There was a picture of him after one match where he had consistently thrown himself at the feet of the opposition and he looked like he had 2 black eyes and a broken nose. I don't think he was ever the same again.

I liked Seymour, but never thought much of Horne (I think we got him from Man City)

...haven't noticed the name Terry Hurlock on this thread..surely worth a mention?

[bill taylors apprentice]

Radzinski, not complete rubbish, but boy was he frustrating most of the time.
