Worst Walsall player in the last 20 years

El Nombre wrote on a previous thread that Andy Williams was one of the worst players he had seen in his 27 years watching the club. I thought that was a bit harsh and came up with 4 recent examples of worse players: Guthrie, Liddell, Osei Yaw and Ash Taylor. Who else over the last 20 years would join this list?

Russell Martin comes to mind

Last time there was a thread like this, someone said Darren Wrack :rofl:

There are a lot to chose from, I will have to have a think about it.

Considering where he had come from and what we were expecting. Russell Martin he ruined Keates’ team

I think Sam Parkin was far worse than Andy Williams. At least Andy Williams scored from the spot when it mattered in the cup game. I seem to recall Parkin missing a couple of penalties.

Yeah that’s why the question mark, i think i was more disappointed in him than anything, he showed promise but sadly let himself down
Same as Ishy, fantastic player, buggered his career up with his personal life’s antics and even though Taundry was one of our own, i think HE hit the self destruct button

For all round contribution and liability compared to expectation I would throw in Joss Labadie

My worst 11 from who I’ve seen, probably change my mind as soon as other players are mentioned and I’m like oh yeah forgot about him!
. Many recent players as my memory of poor players from early to mid 2000s is shocking lol

Agree entirely.

Was with us at a low league level, little to no ability and played awfully, was a liability with silly bookings… would definitely be in my worst 11. Cant think of one redeeming thing about him.
