Players that have been bought and actually had a run for us but been shite, those on OUR books not s*** loans, and not the perpetually injured.

It'll take me a while to think but I'll start with Hennessy in goal, and include Tom Ince too. Pino isn't far off for me either. Name some failures, let's see how we go.
 
Kevin Miller has to go in goal, for his attitude as much as his ability.

I thought he hadn’t joined us until after our relegation in 98, but he was an ever present in 1997-8.

Hennessy wasn't the best, certainly, but Kevin Miller was surely worse. A lot of the players panic-bought after the 96/97 and 03/04 promotions deserve a place, too, Brolin being a prime example.

It wasn’t even that he was bad, he was just so fat and lazy. Run around like a silly sod, ironically against Leeds at home, then as soon as he got his contract he downed tools
 
GK: Wayne Hennessey
LB: Dean Moxey
RB: Martin Kelly
CB: Adrian Mariappa
CB: Brede Hangeland
CM: Jordon Mutch
CM: Max Meyer
RW: Jason Puncheon
LW: Bakary Sako
FW: Yaya Sanogo
FW: Emmanuel Adebayor

Manager: Neil Warnock

Since we got promoted and with a minimum of 10 league appearances, which filters out many of the absolute worst players like Bamford, Campana etc.

Obviously some of these seem extremely harsh, like Puncheon and Kelly, but it's mainly as most of the players in these positions have been strong for us or haven't played often enough to qualify.

I seem to recall liking Moxey, did I miss something?
 
Eh, Perry Suckling, Butter Flinders, George Wood, David Fry, lot worse keepers than Hennessey

Blimey, you have been spoilt if those where the worst, us oldies would see them as decent 🤣, two absolute nail ons are David Price and John Lacey, i still get a shiver down my pine when i hear there names.

As I said, since we got promoted and with 10+ league games. Any you can name using those parameters that are worse?
