Houston Canary 0 Posted August 23, 2009 He didn''t play a lot for us, but he looked pretty reliable when he did, and that is Jim Brennan. If you''re counting Keelan as foreign because of birth place, then Earnshaw counts too, doesn''t he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dhickl 0 Posted August 23, 2009 I always thought that Gaetano Giallanza was promising, shame about all his injuries.Also does Bellamy county - he was technically born in a different country, especially if you contact my old window cleaner. He used to clean the windows of some of the footballers. He said how Llewellyn was a bit of a flash git, but the new Welsh guy was a top bloke. I asked who, and he couldn''t remember his name. He described him as being ex army and short, ginger hair. I asked if he meant Gary Holt. He said yes, to which I pointed out he is Scottish, not Welsh. His response was "Well they are all bl**dy foreigners these days!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Controversy 0 Posted August 23, 2009 Thomas Helveg for me, shame Worthington didn''t give him a proper go in the side until later in the season - where it coincided with a sharp upturn in results! Pure class - he was opta rated as the best defender in Euro 04, and we got him!Steeno second I reckon.Oh, and Erik Fuglestad? He had a 14 or 15 year old girlfriend while at Norwich, so a big no to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I saw his first game in Germany after he left us and he was so bad he got substituted at half time! I felt that one of the reasons that we didn''t prosper when we went up was that the players we brought in initially weren''t up to much, especially the imports. I found Helveg a big let down after the big build-up. Sorry! My vote would go to Steeno! Played as if it meant something to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bird Table 0 Posted August 24, 2009 I always thought it was a shame that Matt Svensson didn''t stick around longer. He scored some good goals when we went up and was one of the few who managed to play well in the Prem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Voice of the Thorpe Area 0 Posted August 24, 2009 From when I''ve been watching city (2001 onwards), can''t say there''s been too many worth mentioning!For me, Matt Svensson was a very good forward, as was David Nielsen (at least before we signed him on a permenant basis). The best one though was Steeno, a superb crosser of the ball, and remember that scorcher from 40 yards? As for the worst, there''s about a million candidates. Of those who actually got a chance and proved rubbish, Jurgen Colin was terrible IMO (yet went on to play for Ajax? Strange...). Never thought much of Libbra, but the award surely goes to Big Dave Strihavka. Oh dear Peter Grant! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
