Bury Green 0 Posted August 24, 2009 [quote user="newstd1"]Anyone mentioned Henrik Mortensen?[/quote]Good enough player but it all went ‘the way of the pear’ somehow, brought in as a bit of a Flecky backup but it never really happened for him.Talking of Scandinavian type players, what about Scando Sutch as we liked to call him, Mattias Jonsson now he wasn’t much good was he!

Canary Man of Kent 0 Posted August 24, 2009 [quote user="dhickl"][quote user="canary cherub "] [quote user="singing canary"]didnt he play in the world cup or was it when bbc made a error ..!!!??[/quote]No, it was Mike Walker who made an error. He signed a player called Papa Diop who made one appearance, during which it was discovered that he didn''t know how to take a throw in but could direct large gobbets of phlegm at the away fans from an impressive distance. Boxing Day 1997 I think it was, QPR. Never seen again.[/quote]Sorry, but that''s not quite right. His name is Pape Diop - not Papa. He had a trial with Norwich and played against AZ Alkmaar and also in another friendly. He was then signed on loan by Bryan Hamilton - not Walker. He made 5 appearances in 1999. After the 5th game he was reported to the police for spitting at an away fan, but he quickly left the country and joined a French team before it was investigated.So apart from the player''s name, the number of appearances, the manager, circumstances of his signing and the year. Your post was reasonably accurate.The BBC did also report incorrectly, there were 2 Pape Diops in the Senegalese team, and while the BBC claimed one played for Norwich, neither of them did.[/quote]Surely it was not Hamilton but Rioch that signed him? Also, I think he made more appearances than just the 5, but might be wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
