Lloyd Dyer not bad on his day,
Oh and god who remembers Paul Dyson crap CB
Cant wait for the "N" Catagory and the worst CB ever can be named !
Can't wait for "N" myself, Beef. Can't think who you mean (but it's early for me!)
First name Stacey ?
Just shows how opinions can differ. I quite rated Stacey North among some terrible players of that era. (There again, I was living in Yorkshire at the time, saw all the Northern AWAY games, but only managed a couple of home games a season). Perhaps he was just crap at home!
I knew Dixie Deehan - he used to use the same pub as me. He was great with the Villa, but didn't quite make it with WBA - about the same as record buy Gladys Mills.
RE: Pointless - this week D - Beefy 1965 - 21-06-2017
You rated Stacy North
Like to hear other peoples Opinion on this but will be debated when the N's are out
It's all about opinions as you say but i be pressed IMO to find one worse.
I have a cracker for E and he was nailed on the worst forward i have ever seen
D
How could we forget Graham Dorrans

I think we have the same player in mind ....."E" makes Stacy North look like one of the all-time greats...

Some great entries last week (for D), and it's good to bring back memories of some long lost heroes.
Donervan Daniels, Ryan Donk (who I thought was going to be a big star at first) and Wayne Dobbins might have won but for DD's Derveldt who I'd never heard of, so - in my opinion - he's last week's winner.
This Week E.
My contribution is Peter Eastoe. Can't think of any other decent contenders, and I only watched him once. But I'm sure you can stretch our memories!
RE: Pointless - this week E - Dingle-Dingle - 26-06-2017
Michael Wayne Anthony Ebanks.
7 games 83/84.
DD
RE: Pointless - this week E - Kennyg - 26-06-2017
Two unusual names from me! Lateef Elford-Alliyu and Yassine El Ghanassi!
Then there was our Welsh striker Robert Earnshaw
RE: Pointless - this week E - Worldclassalbion - 26-06-2017
Trevor East ..... of Tizwaz fame!! And Derby County fan. Played in John Osbournes testimonial. We all did 'The Dying Fly' on the pitch
I know it's cheating but it's a boster and NO GOOGLE used.

With apologies to Beefy 1965 who I suspect was going to choose the same player ..
Stewart Evans; The end of an era.
Generations of Albion fans had been inspired by a succession of wonderful goalscorers. Ronnie Allen, Derek Kevan, Astle, Brown and Regis… looking back we had been spoilt over the years.
Then in the mid-80s something changed. I remember watching Stewart Evans in horror and with an impending sense of doom. This was a tall, gangly man made of spare deck chair parts. Think Peter Crouch with a perm. And a lot less footballing ability. After just 90 minutes watching our new striker I realized we were really in the shite, perhaps for many years to come.
In fairness, Goodman, Super-Bob and Hughes came along to ease the pain and Stewart Evens may well have been an effective target man for his previous club (Wimbledon) but I repeat… Ronnie Allen, Derek Kevan, Astle, Brown and Regis, ALL England internationals at some point. Seeing Stewart Evans at that time in an Albion shirt was a shock to the system and a sign of dark days to come.
Sorry, I had to get that off my chest.
