VillanousOne Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 He must have had a blinder We also had David James and Enckelman back then so he would have needed to have had several to get a regular first team spot KHV. :winkold: Enckelman was the worst keeper we have ever had in my lifetime by miles. bit harsh, i remember him being a pretty decent shot stopper until the infamous **** up! Ginola was another pointless signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sureshot Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 I remember they used to play that godawful song around VP after we signed Ginola, almost made it twice as bad. And I just found it... Jesus Christ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to disagree. Schmeichel was absolutely shocking when he "played" for us. Except for his goal that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philosopher Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Luc Nilis was tragic! The guy was class, then SNAP! Berson sweet passer never given a chance. Sasa Curcic - horrendous. I was in the Doug Ellis stand when Richard Walker scored his only Villa goal, It was Arsenal and finished 1-1. Or what about Osbourne, Chris Sutton and Phil Bardsley!

Zatman Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 JOhn McGrath played a few first team games around turn of century. Always though he was related to God but was brilliant in CHampionship Manager 01/02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northyorksvilla Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Saw Guy Whittingham play once. Thought he was going to be brilliant for us, turned out that he wasn't! Didn't we swap him with Sheff Wed for Ian Taylor? What a deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommybringsgiants Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I remember seeing John Fashanu score on his Villa debut against Everton (I think?). I was very excited..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted May 15, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted May 15, 2012 Of those previously mentioned, Bosko Balaban, Carlton Cole, Luc Nilis. Also - Franz Carr. And I was there when Alex Cropley got his leg broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloBarnesi Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 Seeing that Carlton Cole played over 20 times for Villa (when I say Played, he appeared on the field), he’s not quite on the Bouldingesque rarity, though Franz Carr playing (did he score?) is pretty impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Franz Carr playing (did he score?) If memory serves...wasn't it an injury time winner in a cup game? in '96? Don't know if it was on the way to winning the league cup though, couldve been FA Cup...I should probably google it - It was an FA Cup quarter final winning goal against his old club Forest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted May 15, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted May 15, 2012 Franz Carr playing (did he score?) is pretty impressiveHe played three games (1995-96) and scored one goal. But a vital one - against his old club Forest, to put us through to a League Cup semifinal (which we lost to Liverpool). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
