That's ridiculous. Jason Brown was alright.

At least Nouble put the effort in.Qin wrote: ↑Sun Mar 30, 2025 1:47 pm 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

Re: Orients Worst Loanees
David Partridge wasn't great. Neither was Ryan Dickson or Scott Fitzgerald.

Re: Orients Worst Loanees
Nah, he was poor. Overweight and conceded 5 goals in 3 games including 2 against droylsden.

Re: Orients Worst Loanees
I remember he hit one good half volley that was saved... that was it. Goes into the Scowcroft / Parkin bracket of overweight, unfit pros looking for one last payday.

Re: Orients Worst Loanees
Scott Fitzgerald. One league game. One red card. Rubbish.
Sam Parkin is up there for me. Was absolute tosh in almost every game he played for us, despite being told by Ling at the time we were signing a top striker. If it was my most disliked loans then Dean Morgan would have been up there, but he was the better of the two talent wise.

Re: Orients Worst Loanees
O’Leary was so bad (and so fat) it was embarrassing for us as a club to have him turn out.
One of Geraint Williams’ drinking pals by all accounts.
Played at the same time as Scowcroft, who whilst not a loanee, was a colossal disappointment bordering on embarrassing too.
Another shout for Michael Marks (1988). Utter toilet and came with a degree of expectation too being a Millwall player.
Parkin was poor but I do believe he tried whereas the 3 above just could not give a s***

Re: Orients Worst Loanees
Inexplicably, Dawkins got a 3 year contract at Derby I think, before they realised quite quickly he was a glass-ankled nonentity

Re: Orients Worst Loanees
No bordering about it, he was an embarrassment. There was one through ball he had a 10 yard start and still gave up on it. I think of all the bad strikers he tops my list with a grand total of 0 goals.Scuba Diver wrote: ↑Tue Apr 01, 2025 10:11 pm Scowcroft, who whilst not a loanee, was a colossal disappointment bordering on embarrassing too.

You’re right. I’m being too kind he was utter gash and a total wage thief.gshaw wrote: ↑Tue Apr 01, 2025 10:14 pmNo bordering about it, he was an embarrassment.

Wow yes that's a top call, forgot about him during that equally bizarre and confusing timeScuba Diver wrote: ↑Tue Apr 01, 2025 10:15 pm The terminally confused Rowan Liburd also warrants a mention.
