'The Duke' is a lucky man to not be on that list.
We've had so much crap over ME's time, it's almost impossible to pin it down to an 11. |  |

Seriously Leon Best is no up front for that starting XI that perfomance at Lincoln was probably the worst performance from a Town striker in 20 years and it's a very very low bar that. |  | | |

You probably probably make a worst XI comprised exclusively of Keane or Jewell or Hurst/Lambert players in all fairness. I was trying to get a spread across the whole era. | |

How did you find out that Mr Keane is an 'Ass Man'?
Or don't we want to know? |  |

Skuse. That's dim. |
Dim? That’s harsh....but fair.
Actually, I just threw Skuse in for a laugh. I’ll sub him with Digby for now. And Roberts for Nouble. Dear old Frank had no idea where he was but he made me laugh and wasn’t trying to steal a living like some of them. [Post edited 22 Apr 2020 18:25]

I've forgotten most of the terrible players who've somehow found their way into Town's books over the last 11 or 12 years. There must be 50 of them. One I do remember was Toure, remember him? Leon Best was no good, apparently he looked like Drogba when he was on trial.
Danny Higginbotham was well past it when he was at Town. However the worst must be Nathan Ellington. He was great at Wigan with Jason Roberts but by the time he rocked up at PR it was time to hang up the boots. |  |

In which case I apologise for bringing it up again! Ellington also put in sone pretty rancid displays as well. Most of our utter garbage up front came when Mick played 1 up front and we could be playing still against no opposition and we would still struggle to score. | | | |

This is impossible and too difficult to choose just 11. We've had a ridiculous amount of awful players throughout the years therefore I've gone for two 11's. The football match between the worst ever Ipswich players under the Evans era.
The first 11 is:
Norris
Spence , Ingimarsson , O'Dea , Balkestein
Gleeson , Coke , Toure , Martin
Ellington , Bajner.
Against this one:
Loach
Hewitt , Sonko, T. Brown , Thatcher
Stevenson , Bru , Huws
Best , P.Taylor , Nouble
-----
If it came to the tournament between these kind of ITFC 11's I could easily pick up the third 11 ;) Too much s**t has been representing the club. |  | | |

I'd take issue with Bru - perfectly decent for a freeby, albeit no world beater, and Huws who was decent enough on loan.
Otherwise that is a full squad of absolute dross. | |

O'Dea was often an accident waiting to happen. I think O'Dear would of been a more appropriate name for him. |  |

Noublé looks a really good player in League 2. (Which is of course a clue to where Hurst went wrong.) |  | | |

Great selections. I’d pay to watch a match between those two teams. It’d be hilarious. I’d forgotten all about Paul Taylor, Toure and Sonko. Oh dear. Taylor had a modicum of ability but in every other way he was a waste of space. I think the second team of yours would win though - eventually. | | | |

Stephenson who was he? I don't remember him.

Re Stewart and Graham....Have they played at least 5 times for us? That was a rule of this thread.
Ryan Stevenson.....Jewells Scottish gem. | | | |
