Waghorn has at least given us some kind of return though. Unless you think it’s better to pay someone to do nothing than it is to pay them for an underwhelming job.
If we are indeed still paying Waghorn next season then he may well end up being the worst Robins era signing. Although he seems like a nice guy who tries hard in training though - apparently that’s important to some people.
I think it was Calita.
As a comparison to Kasta who was shit in training and couldn’t be arsed otherwise
Both Drysdale and Burroughs stayed on the bench again for Ross County for their game against Celtic. Ross lost 0-2.
Definitely a wasted loan period for both.
Burroughs is quite talented, we should keep him, however Drysdale is beyond it, should be let go. We also have the younger Burroughs in the u23s, who is also quite talented, so I reckon if one leaves the other may want to follow suit.Would we have used them anymore though, I can’t see a use for Drysdale and haven’t seen Burroughs play.
Could provide a long list Drinkell as you say, Garry Collier, Larry Lloyd, Leigh Jenkinson, Roger Van Goole, Chris Chilton, Sandy Robertson all perils of the transfer market all at the time very large fees and quite possibly highest earners there are more.Weve had plenty worse than hillsner in terms of wasted money. Kevin Drinkell anyone?

In fairness to Hillsner soon after he signed he was diagnosed with Asthma a debilitating condition, perhaps it should have been picked up at his medical but saying he is “stealing” a living is very harsh now it sounds like he has an ACL if that is attatched to his Asthma perhaps we can claim compensation on player insurance we might be doing that now wages wise.
I'd have thought you'd consider that poorWell not poor. He’s managed to get £600,000 pay in 3 years

I forgot Jones him and Collier cost us well over half a million quid what would that be the equivalent of today ? Collier played 2 games Jones 11. Think we got a bit back flogging Collier to an American team.Collier and David Jones what a great coup that was at the time

Van Gooly-bollocks as my late friend used to call him. He was awful, but I knew people that actually rated him. Nowt so queer as folk.Could provide a long list Drinkell as you say, Garry Collier, Larry Lloyd, Leigh Jenkinson, Roger Van Goole, Chris Chilton, Sandy Robertson all perils of the transfer market all at the time very large fees and quite possibly highest earners there are more.

He was very poor for us but I remember him having one quite good game against Leicester at Filbert Street.Van Gooly-bollocks as my late friend used to call him. He was awful, but I knew people that actually rated him. Nowt so queer as folk.
Runar Norman can be added to the list. I was also going to say Laurent Delorge but apparently he started 28 games in our first season in the championship (although I don't remember anything he did).Could provide a long list Drinkell as you say, Garry Collier, Larry Lloyd, Leigh Jenkinson, Roger Van Goole, Chris Chilton, Sandy Robertson all perils of the transfer market all at the time very large fees and quite possibly highest earners there are more.

Didn’t he start looking like a world beater for a couple of games? Then went back to looking like a panel beater.Runar Norman can be added to the list.

Try and find the European Cup semi final when he was fantastic for Cologne against Forest at the City Ground.Van Gooly-bollocks as my late friend used to call him. He was awful, but I knew people that actually rated him. Nowt so queer as folk.
He was ripped Forest apart. It was fashionable to buy foriegn at the time most first division clubs had at least one, some good players like Ozzie Ardilles, Arnold Murren, Franz Thysen but as per usual we got the dud.Try and find the European Cup semi final when he was fantastic for Cologne against Forest at the City Ground.
Pask always seemed ok and had enough physicality about him as well as a good youth background. Did something go on behind the scenes? I put him ahead of Drysdale as back up / squad player.I really thought this lad would play at the highest level
Josh Pask: Newport County keen to keep defender for next season
Newport County manager James Rowberry is keen to keep Coventry City loan defender Josh Pask for next season.www.bbc.com
I think it's just a question of consistencyPask always seemed ok and had enough physicality about him as well as a good youth background. Did something go on behind the scenes? I put him ahead of Drysdale as back up / squad player.
I guess we will be able to attract better quality as an established Champ team now.

I can only assume something must have gone on as his face just didn’t seem to fit. Can’t really remember an instance where he totally let us down in games. Seemed fairly reliable and was fairly quick which from a defensive position we aren’t. I remember his first game when he scored at Birmingham and I thought we had a decent player on our hands.Pask always seemed ok and had enough physicality about him as well as a good youth background.

He was a victim of the clubs success.
It didn't help that he also suffered a bad injury soon after being brought in which kept him out for months. As by the time he returned he was never going to get ahead of Rose/McFadz/Hyam.
Couple that with promotion to the Championship and he just was never going to make the step up.
I wasn't a fan of him last season and thought he looked way out of depth at times but there's definitely a player in there it's just about getting a few seasons under his belt and enhancing his experience.
Best of luck to him wherever he ends up.
Depends which end you're talkingScored more for us than Dabo.
Well not poor. He’s managed to get £600,000 pay in 3 years
Is there any actual evidence for this claim? Surely he was on peanuts especially considering it was a 3 year deal.
The insider on here said he's on 4k a week which equates to us shelling out 600k on him. I could be wrong but I think we also paid a transfer fee for himIs there any actual evidence for this claim? Surely he was on peanuts especially considering it was a 3 year deal.
