Two times two many. He categorically was the worst centre back I've ever seen play at the club.

On his debut it was genuinely like he'd had a make a wish granted to play in a professional football match. I've never seen a player in any position look so terrible on the ball.

I was in the same Sunday league team as him. I played in a game where he scored 10 goals. We had trials at the same time.

I think he still holds the record for the fastest hatrick in the league cup.

The only reason I've ever remembered we signed him is that we did those season review VHS things back then and it was mentioned at the start of that.

I remember him playing against Leicester and looking great. He stopped a certain goal with his bollocks, got up to block the rebound and only afterwards collapsed in a big heap. He also splayed it out from the back really well.

He then had that complete catastrophe against Man United.

Apparently he actually played four times for us, according to Wiki. I don't remember him playing once.

Rangers must be the club that we have the highest dud to quality signing ratio from. Has there been a successful signing from them?

I played against him when he was about 14 in a game at Folly Lane he had blokes bouncing off him and I am sure he scored 3 looked amazing.

Yeah, that’s him…like a battering ram. I kept half an eye on his career; I think he played on for quite a while.
We played a few seasons together tbf.

Didn't Donnelly sign on loan and essentially refuse to play as he didn't wanna move here

I was gonna say that Adaramola we had on loan from Palace but looks like he played 2 games.

He got absolutely terrorised at that game we played at Burton that his other appearance must have been erased from my memory.

Courtney Baker-Richardson featured in an FA Cup game. Edit: Away at Hartlepool during the season at Northampton.

Bassala Sambou also featured in an FA Cup game a couple of years later. Edit: Home versus Northampton.
