Lurid Coat Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I know some of you, like myself, have a morbid fascination with old(ish) random Premier League mediocrities such as EIKE IMMEL, JOHN EBRELL, JEREMY GOSS, LARS LEESE, ERIC "SWEATBAND ICON" YOUNG, PAULO FUTRE, JAMIE POLLOCK, STEVE OGRIZOVIC, JOHN "FRICKIN'" SALAKO, PHILEMON MASINGA, PREKI*, etc. I could go on forever. In fact, I think I will do that in this thread. Let us all reminisce about these fantastic football icons that were so mediocre/sh1t, yet so fantastic! Share your most obscure dream teams with the masses! Brag about your Paul Heald tattoo! Preferrably nineties Premier League players, but it is also fitting to use this thread to discuss modern day legends such as the former Rovers hero BRUNO BERNER. *=Sorry for the caps lock, but lower case letters simply don't do these legends justice.

Lurid Coat Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 Wasn't Daryl Sutch once a target for Kenny pre Sutton? !!!! News to me, how I would have loved to have that Norwich legend wearing the blue and white halves! I know I, for one, won't be getting any sleep tonight.

b12_simon Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 CM Steve Sedgeley A mate of mine's son's middle name is Steve after Mr Sedgley. He'd decided the honour would go to whoever scored first for Wolves after the birth. Naturally I was hoping for Timuri Ketsbaia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurid Coat Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 Norwegian TV3. He's sort of a Gary Lineker type of host (Champions League matches). Absolutely horrible TV personality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovermatt Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Norwich did have a host of them (Ian Cook anyone?), but Arsenal's Ian Selley always sticks in my mind. And Jostein Flo.

You know what, a lot of those players mysteriously caught my imagination.

Gavlar Somerset Rover! Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 and another shout for Jamie Pollock for scoring possibly the greatest own goal of all time whilst playing for Man City. If that goal was at the right end that would have been a goal of the season contender! Well I'm sure that's what he'll tell his Grandchildren anyway .
