Sammy Ayorinde, not the worst we have had by a long way. Nigel Donn however was absolutely awful.

Sammy Ayorinde, Roger Stanislaus and Peter Garland. Legends one and all. Think at least one of the bars should be named after one of them They left out that he played for Clapton Rovers for two weeks.

Although tbf we had an awful lot of dross over the years haven't we- David Stride was another terrible player and we had an Irish Winger (Paul?) Dempsey who seemed to get picked every week.

Who was the keeper who is up there as one of the worst certainly top 3 for me. Was it Cass? I remember at Aldershot I don't think I've ever seen a worse performance than that one!

Yeah David Cass, plucked from non league and promptly proved that it was his true level. Rhys Wilmott was poor too and never to be forgotten for the Hull City game we lost 4-5 where he seemed to dive over or go the wrong way for their goals.

Ayorinde has two international caps for Nigeria. The first came in 1998 when he was playing for Bangor City. Apparently he was the first League of Wales player to get an international call up. And this at a time when Nigeria were establishing themselves as World Cup regulars, with top players like Jay-Jay Okocha, Nwankwo Kanu, Sunday Oliseh, Finidi George, Celestine Babayaro, and Taribo West in the squad. Wonder what they must've thought of him.

Toribo West Championship Manager legend in the 01/02 game. You could get him on a free at the beginning of the game and suddenly you had a world class defender playing in league 2! Bosh!

He was decent and a hard man for a short while with a bit controversy after he retired.
At Auxeere they won a few things like the league championship, a Uefa Cup. He moved to Inter and had success there as well. However from there it was downhill all the way. His top level career done in 7 years. He also won 42 International caps in a good Nigerian team.
It was claimed he was 12 years older than his actual age which when you look at what he won he would have been if true in peak football age years. He did of course deny it.
Today he is a priest in Lagos.
