NiftyFox Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Do you remember a certain Ryan Smith who played for us on loan from Arsenal about 5-6 years ago. He was quite a skillful and pacey winger who did ok for us. Anyway quite random but he just popped into my head watching the Millwall game, he went thorugh a lot of Championship clubs but never did very well. He is now at Chivas in the US. Just thought you foxes would want to know this?
AyewJoking Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 i rated him at the time, a bit of flair even if there was no end product. it was a breath of fresh air in an otherwise depressing period at the club.
Libertine Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 What a debut he had at Derby away. Barely did anything after that.
SystonFox Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Immense at sheff utd at home too. After that he was dog poo. He was the first Alex Oxlade chamberlain.
BoneDog Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 I've heard he causes some teams quite a few problems down the wing lately. Seen him mentioned a few times in live text in US games.
sdb Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Immense at sheff utd at home too. After that he was dog poo. He was the first Alex Oxlade chamberlain. We looked so good that game. Warnock banging on about our front 4. Pretty sure it was Smith - Hammond - De Vries - Sylla haha. Something like that anyway.
Corky Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 We took Sheffield United apart that day. Then didn't win for two months.
SystonFox Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 One of my fave city matches of all time. Great performance. Great atmosphere in the stadium. We were unplayable that day
Bayfox Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 i rated him at the time, a bit of flair even if there was no end product. it was a breath of fresh air in an otherwise depressing period at the club. No end product............... Meet lloyd dyer................. Most weeks.
Fox92 Posted 18 November 2012 Posted 18 November 2012 Yeah, looked like he was going to be a decent player. I remember the Blades game, think he scored that game as well.
Ozwin Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 Shows what an absolutely awful period that was when Ryan ****ing Smith was the biggest prospect we had at the time. Jesus Christ, it's worse than I remembered.

Jesus Christ, it's worse than I remembered. Oh come on it wasn't that bad; we also had er...whatshisname and er......you know......that guy? MC something? And, erm, there was....er, thingymebob who knew the physio quite well? And errrrr........ the one who's at Wigston car breakers? The oompa loompa? Yeh, all the legends.

Jesus Christ, it's worse than I remembered. Well we did have the likes of James Weslowski and Stephen Hughes bossing the centre of midfield back then.
Corky Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 Well we did have the likes of James Weslowski and Stephen Hughes bossing the centre of midfield back then. And people sometimes call Andy King lightweight.
Soar Fox Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 We need a hard tackling, ball winning, centre midfielder. If only we could re-sign Danny Tiatto.
RonnieTodger Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 Looking back at the squads we had back then, it's a wonder we didn't get relegated sooner than 2008. Rab Douglas, Andy Johnson amd Danny Tiatto the experienced pros...
Ross-Kemp Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 Elvis Hammond, Collins John, Danny cadamarteri, Paul Henderson, rab Douglas, momo sylla, Alan rogers, Ryan smith, Steven Hughes, mark de vries, Danny tiatto, Jordan Stewart. My god we were shit.
Nick Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 Elvis Hammond, Collins John, Danny cadamarteri, Paul Henderson, rab Douglas, momo sylla, Alan rogers, Ryan smith, Steven Hughes, mark de vries, Danny tiatto, Jordan Stewart. My god we were shit.

Guesty Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 I'd forgotten all about Andy Johnson. He's one of those players who I always forget about when someone starts up a 'who's the worse player you've seen in a city shirt'. Though he has a lot of competiton - especially from those days.
Bugg Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 Alan Maybury, the man who made nearly 100 appearances for us and was shit in almost every one.
Soar Fox Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 Darren Kenton, Jason Jarrett, Luigi Glombard, Rufus Brevett, Peter Gilbert, Jason Wilcox, Nathan Blake, Joe Hamill, Andy Welsh, Bruno N'Gotty, Kevin Pressman. God we've had some sh*t over the past few years.
Kitchandro Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 I didn't go to many games at all in that era but there was always someone making their debut when I did. And of course they were always shit and after a few weeks were never sighted again. I remember Horsfield and Jarret falling into that category. It just seemed to be a revolving door of pointless signings. We struggle to remember them and they probably struggle to remember playing for us. Good shout about Maybury, everytime I saw us I thought he was stand-out shit, and that's saying something.
SystonFox Posted 19 November 2012 Posted 19 November 2012 I had my season ticket during that era. 2005 > 2009. DOGSHIT YEARS.
