Worst ever loan signing 16:29 - Feb 27 with 5700 viewsDubtractor

As an alternative to the best loanee thread, how about a worst loanee?

Two stand out for me.

Tony Dinning
Danny Karbassiyoon

Both utterly hopeless

Who is your pick?

Nigel Reo-Coker.

Thought he was too good for us and said as much. Except he was dreadful in a poor side.

End of thread.

He wasn’t on loan so the thread continues.

He was though all mouth and no action. Truly awful for us.

Tom Carson indeed, one appearance and honestly think Bluey or Crazee in goal would have been an improvement.


It's got to be Tom Carson. All over the place in his debut. Kept rushing out of the penalty area and very eccentric for a GK. Let in two really soft goals.

Bradley Oar, surely


I thought Bradley Orr did alright for us in the time that he was here. Definitely not the worst ever.

Don't think he was a loan was he? Didn't we have him on a 6 month deal.

Was awful though

We are talking worst ever here.

Stern John did score 1 goal and created 2 assists in his time with us.

The game with Tom Carson? Think it ended 2-0 but only due to woeful finishing (missing an open goal from 5 yards out etc).

What made Tom Carson’s first and only game especially painful was that Paul Cooper was in goal at the other end.

We had so many poor ones in the Evans era, you could probably pick a starting eleven and bench?

Off the top of my head

Norris

Zuiverloon Pennington O'Dea (That random left back, I think from Palace)

Harrop Dining Healy Thomas

Salmon Fallon

Zeki Fryers, that was the one, hadn't Palace spent about £3 million on him too?

Just checked, you’re right, he wasn’t.

I could have sworn he was.

You could probably make an XI of terrible Man U loans alone - anyone remember Michael Clegg?

I remember he'd had a piece in the 442(It think) 'boy's a bit special' feature where they talked to upcoming young players and I was quite excited to see him turn up.
And then I actually saw him play.
Embarrassingly bad. Like, Drissa Diallo vs Etherington bad.


Michael Clegg was hopeless. I liked Burley, a lot, but that was one decision that was way off.

I missed many of the others mentioned in this thread but struggle to believe they could be as sh1t as Clegg was.

Utter, pure, undiluted dog sh1te

All loans are pointless and self harming - but anyone who didn’t vote for Gerry Creaney clearly didn’t see him play

Jonathan Macken. Surprised he hasn't been mentioned.

Paul Digby - a loan that turned into ... permanent !!! He was so hopeless.

Stephen Gleeson ... though not a loanee but still deserves a mention. On the short term contract. Geriatric, slow, walking depression. We needed goals in 2017/18, some people were crying for a firepower but mccarthy brought this donkey in. Moreover he also told those 'some people to f off'. An ill-mannered p***k.

Zeki Fryers is still playing and only 31. Safe to say he hasn't had a stellar career.

I seem to recall Rory Fallon being less popular than any mentioned so far.


He wasn't anywhere near as bad as I had feared. It was just such an underwhelming signing, and an indication of the level of ambition the club would have for the next decade.
