Winner. I couldn't f***ing stand him. Thankfully with only one sub back then and a settled back four of Doris, Gilbert, cannon and Sansom, we didn’t see too much of him!!

Anyone remember Andy Preece? Really wanted him to succeed but he just never seemed to fit in. Chris Armstrongs mate if I remember right. He's got a pineapple on his head, he's got a pineapple on his head......

I think some people on this thread are just listing our worst ever players. However, for me, a "donkey" of a player is one who has the particular "qualities" of being heavy, slow and immobile. On that score add Ben Anderson who played briefly for us around 1974-75. On those criteria, we did have Darcy Blake in 2012/13, who got too unfit even for the reserves. Ended up switching to rugby.

I haven't read this whole thread, so I don't know whether the name Dennis Uphill has been mentioned, but rightly or wrongly he will for ever be associated in my mind with the word "donkey". He scored 20 goals in 3 seasons in the early sixties, but memory tells me that he never moved far to get them.
