whiskychimp Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I'm not going to go with a guy who played 2 games and disappeared Danny Invisible was horrible over numerous seasons. Craig Napier played a season at fullback Steve Smith was around for a long time 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torfason Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Jim Gardiner is probably the worst in a very long list of players to play for us. What made it’s worse was him being part of a swap deal that took Paul Lambert to Well. Genuinely terrible footballer. Special mention though to Stevie Galloway, a target man who seemed to get smaller every time he went up for a header. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernLights Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Þórarinn Kristjánsson, he genuinely looked like he'd never played football before in his fleeting appearances for us. Lubomír Blaha was a similar non-scoring striker that Calderwood enjoyed signing. Which reminds me of the utter thug that was Tommy Wright. Genuinely embarrassing watching him. His final home appearance against Hamilton was a shocker. Lunged into several reckless and late tackles and was lucky to not be sent off. Wasted £100k on him as well.

Fife Saint Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Has Connolly's legend status at St Johnstone been badly damaged by his stint as manager, or is he still fondly regarded due to his playing career? That whole era feels like a distant fever dream. I'd say over time people will gloss over that stint and he's still revered. I think he got more rope than others would have been afforded and there was a feeling of sadness that it didn't work out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needless to say, he was great with us. Despite the clubs being in the same division at the time he moved though, it was probably a very different job that was required of him at St Johnstone.

Stu Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 On 30/12/2018 at 21:35, Silvio said: https://www.thefreelibrary.com/BOSMAN'S+WRECKED+MY+LIFE!%3B+Ronnie+went+in+search+of+a+dream..now+he's...-a060606765 After this Ronnie McQuilter signed for saints. Hopeless. He was utterly brutal. Head like a 50p piece - the ball just bounced off it and then went anywhere but where he probably meant it to go. Tom Hendrie's search for a striker in 2000/01 saw is linked with luminaries including Bebeto, Cadette, Amokachi and, moust famously, Ronaldinho. After we binned light-hands Paeslack we ended up with Maikel Renfurm and Graham Fenton. The latter spent half his time being told to chase long balls despite having no pace - then discovered he had asthma about 15 years before British Cycling and Team Sky discovered that could be advantageous for a sportsman. More recently there's been such superstars as Alan Gow, Alex Cooper, Yoann Arquin and the aforementioned Kyle Hutton. Jeff King and Cole Kpekawa make the list too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aDONisSheep Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Where do I start with this nonsense? Previous Dandies on this thread have produced a litany of absolute horse-manure that have pulled on the AFC shirt. But yet... There are additional horrors who have not yet to have their crimes against both AFC and Football in general uncovered. For Aberdeen there is one position above all for which fans of AFC will gnash their teeth and wail in grief... FULLBACK particularly left back! The likes of Ritchie 'Roberto Carlos' Byrne and Jamie McQuilken are infamous in AFC lore. No, it is not them, the horrors I speak of are from a time before. Many do not believe this tale of woe, but it is both true and very, very sad. The season of 1994/95 was ground zero for Aberdeen. Willie 'God' Miller had taken leave of his senses and decided that there needed to be a revolution at Aberdeen and that this would turn us into brides rather than bridesmaids (it actually turned us into hoors, fvkked by all in sundry, famously including a pasiting in all but the scoreline by Stenhousemuir) and we finished rank bottom (of clubs that matter) and were saved via a new and brilliant innovation called a 'playoff'! In '95 right back had been covered by McKimmie and Wright, left back by Glass and Gary Smith if I recall(?), not bad at all! After he had led us through "the great escape of '95", it was believed that Roy Aitken was the man to take us forward and he was given simply oodles of sillar (cash) to do the job. Where should you look to get new 'talent' I hear you ask? Well in Roy's case, he opened his 1994 World Cup Panini Book of stickers at the Bulgarian page (finished 4th) and chose not one but TWO world cup semi-finalist full-backs! I shyt you not! This really happened! (Maybe not the Panini bit, but the rest is true)! Now everyone remembers the name (Kiriakov) who's Wikipedia entry starts with the descriptive term "A player of great energy" (I can only assume this is talking about his Chi energy) because the player I remember was was a work-shy, listless shyte, that looked like he'd been on the brew all night, not slept and had a pack of 20 Bensons tucked into his shorts for a half time fag! Now Kiriakov cost Aberdeen 400k (or for the hard of thinking 400,000 NewRangers FCs)! The name people are less familiar with is the one associated with a price tag of 550k! I bring you Tsanko Tsvetanov! That's right! In 1996 Aberdeen spent circa 1million pounds on full-backs alone! Tsvetanov lasted a whole two seasons with Aberdeen, and our reward for this million pound largesse over the next two seasons was that; in 96/97 we finished 6th just behind the Pars (on 44 points, just 36 points off top spot), then in 97/98 we made the leap to erm... 6th (39 points, but only 35 points off top spot) so that's er... progress of sorts isn't it! It took Aberdeen 10+ years to recover (some would claim we've still not recovered yet). I still see those years as the truly dark days of Aberdeen. Thanks for reading. Next week, I'll be discussing the the topic - Alex 'that kvnt' Miller, why, just fvkking why?!
