We apparently were sniffing about which led to some shenanigans with Morton before he was punted and then we never signed him. Several year later after he'd ripped up the erm, juniors, he was signed by Bomber Brown to lead our title charge. Instantly put on penalties ahead of our best two penalty takers in my lifetime (Ryan Conroy & Matt Lockwood) purely to justify Brown's decision of signing him. 1 goal in 19 league appearances, which was an aforementioned penalty against Livi before fucking back off to the Juniors. 19 appearances? Really? I must of really erased that from memory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I'm sure Kyle Hutton got our Player of the Year one season. He wasn't superb but given the number of useless CM's we've had he should be nowhere near this list. We currently have worse CM than him at the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't superb but given the number of useless CM's we've had he should be nowhere near this list. We currently have worse CM than him at the club. Neither David Hutton nor Kyle Hutton should be anywhere near a "worst eleven" for us. Notwithstanding how they've done with other clubs since they both did well with us. Kyle Hutton only had one season here and was voted Player of the Year in it! How on earth he can be in a worst eleven, as 'marmite' a player as he is, is beyond me. David Hutton did fine with us and, generally from my memory at the time, most people were disappointed when he decided to leave. Of course he had one enormous high profile cock up which stands out. These sort of votes are always difficult. If you don't put a minimum number of games on it then the worst eleven are almost certainly players who never made it on to the pitch for more than a few minutes. Also surprised to see Kyle Cameron twice nominated as a right back. Don't think he's ever played there. He wasn't a great centre back either but he wasn't the worst in the last decade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmy_cammy Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Cameron was a direct replacement for Jason Kerr I think which meant he was on a hiding to nothing for the beginning. He wasn’t great but there is no chance he deserves to be anywhere near this thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I also think Leon Knight did ok with us in his small number of appearances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he wasn't awful. He clearly wasn't at all fancied by Brannigan who summarily binned him from the squad as soon as he took over. Chisholm's departure ended Knight's chances of featuring for us. Actually Fraser Aird shouldn't per se be anywhere near a worst eleven either though he certainly disappointed given the track record he'd had over the previous couple of seasons with United and Dunfermline. Aird produced about as much as Andy Stirling did yet people are forever wishing he'd come back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Brannigan had a lot to do with the wider perception among our support too. I recall he described Knight as 'having a heart the size of a pea' or some such at a fans' forum, prompting the view into received wisdom territory. There probably is evidence that Knight is not the world's nicest individual. He also failed to score for us and was rarely outstanding. He could be quite exciting though, and I remember an excellent performance against Dundee at Palmerston, when he terrorised their defence. We've had worse front players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QoS_Blue1919 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 It’s a matter of opinions I suppose. I remember Kyle Cameron being at fault for 1 or 2 goals at Palmerston, passing it straight to the opposition. Our worst XI is probably made up 75% from 2011/2012 season. Was trying to mix things up. The RB’s we’ve had this decade are (by memory) Craig Reid, Alan Reid, Shaun Rooney, Scott Mercer and Lewis Kidd. Rooney probably the worst, but he wasn’t THAT bad, hence Cameron. Kidd was good at RB, less so in CM. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Yeah I already stated Cameron was at RB because he was a worse player than the actual RB's we've had. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't a right back though so nominating him there seems bizarre. As I posted above you may as well nominate Stephen Dobbie as our worst right back. Alan Reid was a left back. Ryan McGuffie is another who played extensively at right back this decade. And Chris Mitchell obviously. Andy Dowie played at right back for a while when Durnan and Higgins played centrally. But yes, we've actually had good right backs for most of the decade. Rooney was the most unreliable and even he could be an real asset when we had the ball.

Fae_the_'briggs Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Any serious list wouldn't have David Hutton in front of Calum Antell as worst keeper. Hutton was an average keeper who unfortunately made a high profile mistake that people remember, Antell's time here on the other hand was peppered with errors as his confidence was shattered and affected the performance of the defence in front of him. Kyle Hutton is another whose inclusion is harsh imo, on his game he was very effective and I wouldnt have been too disappointed if he'd been signed the next season. A case could also be made for Beerman and Aird, both didn't feature as much as expected but both allegedly picked up injuries when they were here and the Manager(s) seemed reluctant to play them at other times. Actually Naysmith signing Aird and not playing him when fit was a mystery, rumours of attitude problems being the reason. I've not looked through all the QoS lists but I assume John Baird's name will feature,. Agreed he was held back by a pre - season injury but his attitude on return when he was bench-warming and on his limited appearances was abysmal. Definitely not a team player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
