Iwan is a Welshman Posted 29 December 2012 Share Posted 29 December 2012 Andy Impey was a good player, as was Frank Sinclair, can't believe two of our Premiership quality players have even been suggested. Also, it's a little unfair if you're going to include players in positions they never played in for the club (Wise never played up front, Impey never a full back, McGivern was a left back.) Off the top of my head: 1. Kevin Pressman 2. Alan Maybury 3. Ryan McGivern 4. Martin Keown 5. Nikos Dabizas 6. Junior Lewis 7. Ryan Smith 8. Gareth Williams 11. Need some help on this one, only had two genuine left wingers in my time and Gups and Dyer both strong servants of the club. Anyone else who has played their has either vanished from my memory or was being played out of position in the first place. 9. Ade Akinbiyi 10. Trevor Benjamin Subs: Douglas, Watts, Hughes, Sylla, Hammond The darkest days have clearly been the Taylor, Levein and Kelly years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basingstoke Fox Posted 29 December 2012 Share Posted 29 December 2012 Ryan Smith wasn't that bad was he? Surely better than Momo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulsherwood1 Posted 29 December 2012 Share Posted 29 December 2012 Not sure I have ever seen a worse full back than Tony Spearing! And a worse mullet!! Junior Lewis is definitely our worst ever player. Jimmy Willis was a poor mans Steve Walsh, Gary coatsworth was a hoofer. Someone mentioned Paul Reid, have to agree, he was a shite player! Awful.

Iwan is a Welshman Posted 29 December 2012 Share Posted 29 December 2012 Ryan Smith wasn't that bad was he? Surely better than Momo! Probably was a bit better technically but thought his attitude seemed poor whereas Momo at least seemed to put everything he had into it, even if everything he had wasn't much.

Iwan is a Welshman Posted 29 December 2012 Share Posted 29 December 2012 Jesus this is a depressing thread. My first City game was 1994 so can only really comment post-Little and, even then, can't give a fair assessment until Taylor. I see that most of this list has played for the club in the past fifteen years. Older guys, is this just rose tinted glasses and a message board with a young readership, or has the last decade been the worst in our history?

Aus Fox Posted 29 December 2012 Share Posted 29 December 2012 Cannot believe no one has mentioned zelco spider Kalac easily the worst goalkeeper we have ever had, anyone go to the WBA game when we were 3 up at half time before spider threw a couple into his own net. Then followed that up by doing the same again agaist Bolton in the cup. Kalac Rodgers Willis Carey Lamely Momo Marshall Lewis Philpot Akinbadbye Hayles Subs Williams, Stewart, Moreno, Hellings, Mcgivern, Blake, Logan (well it wouldn't be a Leicester team if Logan wasn't keeping the bench warm) Manager Taylor not so well assisted by David Pleat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leicsmac Posted 29 December 2012 Share Posted 29 December 2012 Peter Taylor. End of. This. At least neither Pleat nor Holloway sent us into administration (and nearly to the wall) through spending more money than the club has ever had on absolute shite. Ollie should get an honourable mention for doing something else no Leicester manager has done before though.

Trevor Benjamin Subs: Douglas, Watts, Hughes, Sylla, Hammond The darkest days have clearly been the Taylor, Levein and Kelly years I once flew to the Algarve will my Missis at the time. On the same flight were Micky Adams City side. It was grand cos they were all there. I was sitting not far away from Trev Benjamin who was watching a DVD on his laptop. I kid you not, the lad had to keep squinting at the screen to focus on what he was watching. He didn't seem to have very good eyesight. I turned round to the Missis and she looked over at him and we both had to stifle a big giggle... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimsalabim Posted 1 January 2013 Share Posted 1 January 2013 Mark Blake ? Worst 11. No way jose. Did you never see colin gordon ? Mark robins ? Robins certainly wasnt among our worst ever. Seem to remember him coming on and scoring some important goals. If i may weigh in with Roberto Mancini? He did fook all in a Leicester shirt.

Tubbymofo Posted 1 January 2013 Share Posted 1 January 2013 Zeljco kalac the worst ever he would have saved all those penalties in the play off final if claridge didn't ruin it by scoring a late winner and he ended up playing in the champions league for inter Milan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or they have seen a 20 second clip on the couple of own goals he scored... He was vital to that Defence because he provided the pace to compensate for Elliott and Taggart. The problem with this thread is that its not really worst players but players who underperformed for us because some of the suggestions are ridiculous.
