Orients Worst Loanees

[Qin]

The worst loanees to ever play for us. Theres plenty to choose, but for me it has to be Calvin Andrew, with the keeper from Leeds whos name i could never pronounce, and whose name ive completely forgotten, running Calvin Andrew very close.

Nouble was also terrible

[Token]

Hemming can surely never be beaten

[PKM]

Hemming can surely never be beaten

He was, frequently!

[BiggsyMalone]

Levi Lumeka

[The Mindsweep]

Shwan Jalal, no contest

[J1MB0B]

Shwan Jalal, no contest

This. Hemmings is world class in comparison.

[EliotNes]

The guy from Watford who got sent off in his first outing for us. I think he came on as a substitute, he wasn’t even in the starting 11. He never played for us again. It was in the 2000s before promotion season of 05/06.

[EastDerehamO]

I thought Rhys Wilmot was pretty bad, for a season long loanee between the sticks he'd take some beating. We've a lot of keepers on this list!

Shwan Jalal, no contest

A touch unfair . He was third choice at Bournemouth and hadn't played for ages . He came to us cold and was immediately compared to Edin who was a top class keeper . For me , Frank Nouble takes some beating . We might as well have played a statue because it would have been virtually the same thing .

[The Reverend]

Frank Nouble.

[HackneyO]

We’ve had some awful keepers on loan. Like Jason Brown.

It's a close call between him and Shwan Jalal, both derailing promotion pushes in their own hopeless ways

Jack Jeffrey was one that stands out in my mind, think he played 45 mins if that before being hooked and never seen again.

Also dishonourable mention for Kazaiah Sterling, we loaned a crocked player... was that some kind of budgetary dodge for Spurs?

Oh and also a shout out for the worst January transfer window ever which brought us the likes of Moss, Ray and Nouble... yikes

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Yeah Calvin Andrew was shocking. Remember a ball bouncing for him to run clean through on and he just jogged until the defender cleared it. Couldn’t give a f***.

Sam Parkin useless too.

There’s a lot to choose from

[gshaw]

From the dark days of NL

Zain Westbrooke - lightweight CM in a clogger's league
Levi Lumeka - young lightweight attacker with low workrate
Bondz N'Gala - rather dodgy CB

[EliotNes]

Frank Nouble.

I've often wondered how such players keep being bought/loaned as they come to the ends of their careers; surely the clubs they are going to know what dross they are.

[banqo]

Michael Marks obviously!

[Stowaway]

Michael Marks obviously!

Micheal “Skid” Marks. Dreadful

[Bergen]

Scott Fitzgerald.

[lordgriff]

Was Michael Marks not a permanent signing?

[Bandy Legs]

Didn't we get the awful Aboue from the spammers?
One of the worst as I remember

[Bergen]

Emmanuel Omoyinmi, maybe?

[banqo]

Was Michael Marks not a permanent signing?

No thank god, on loan from Millwall.

[Adz]

Dave Partidge was a shocker of a loan as he had a court case sitting on his head and after 1 game got found guilty and went to prison.

Dave Partidge was a shocker of a loan as he had a court case sitting on his head and after 1 game got found guilty and went to prison.

That was his second loan spell at the Gaughan. His first one kicked off with him breaking the jaw of a Swansea player and getting sent off.

He was later signed by Terence "bandage head" Butcher at Motherwell where he kicked his way through 86 games and was sold for £150K to Bristol City.

[redintheface]

Was Michael Marks not a permanent signing?

Yes. £20k I believe.
As for loanees - Calvin Andrew, Paul Ruchubka, Jack Jeffrey and David “ Lofty” Jones were all grim.
