I remember people taking the piss out of Andy Reid, and him going on to score against us and beat us, so lets hope he doesn't bite us on our arses again.

Semi Finals will commence once I return from my bike ride.

In the end of the day, most of these addicts have had or will have children, so it is good for the children that Newcastle are helping with their rehab.

My definition of regular is 15+ games

Round three ding ding ding. You get two votes. Top 5 go to semi final.

Gianfranco Zola says he was offerred a position at Newcastle, but not from Wise. Was he one of the three name shortlist that was given to Keegan before he agreed to sign?

Got about £250,000 now which is excellent given the target date for £500,000 is March 2010.

Round 3 shall be starting in 10 mins or so.

You could argue though that it is none of Allardyce's signings that eventually rescued us from relegation, and that it took the removal of Allardyce's 'star signing' from the first XI to start getting results. In fact, Allardyce sold the two players that kept us away from the relegation scrap the season before. Souness failed, no doubt about it, but at least he had a couple of valid excuses, and at least there were a few interspersed positive moments. Did he fuck. And I voted for Souness, because he destroyed us. Solano and Dyer? Oba and Milner kept us away from the relegation scrap far more than either of those two did. Solano played predominantly as a right back, and Dyer predominantly didn't play. I think you'll find if you look that when Dyer did play, he got the goals and key contributions and we got the results that inevitably kept us away from relegation.

Round 2 coming up.......

50 votes = ~ 10 people man. 50 votes of five. No way were there 250 votes on there. Just admit it, you fucked up Yes, there were only 223 votes

50 votes = ~ 10 people man. 50 votes of five.

Top 10 will go to Round 3 tomorrow. Sorry to those who felt I closed down the voting for R1 early, but I just couldn't see much changing for the low scorers after 50 votes had been cast.

McClen is off the list btw because I realised he didn't match the qualification criteria.

I'm only taking away those with one or less votes to tidy it up for now.

Right, the first round of voting is over, the scores were: Darren Ambrose - 1 (0.4%) Shola Ameobi - 5 (2.2%) Celestine Babayaro - 23 (10.3%) Joey Barton - 1 (0.4%) Craig Bellamy - 1 (0.4%) Olivier Bernard - 1 (0.4%) Habib Beye - 0 (0%) Jean Alain Boumsong - 24 (10.8%) Lee Bowyer - 1 (0.4%) Titus Bramble - 18 (8.1%) Nicky Butt - 0 (0%) Cacapa - 0 (0%) Stephen Caldwell - 5 (2.2%) Stephen Carr - 12 (5.4%) Michael Chopra - 1 (0.4%) Lee Clark - 0 (0%) Nikos Dabizas - 1 (0.4%) Damien Duff - 1 (0.4%) Kieron Dyer - 0 (0%) Robbie Elliott - 2 (0.9%) Emre - 1 (0.4%) Jose Enrique - 0 (0%) Abdoulaye Faye - 0 (0%) Amdy Faye - 24 (10.8%) Geremi - 0 (0%) Andy Griffin - 1 (0.4%) Aaron Hughes - 1 (0.4%) Paul Huntington - 1 (0.4%) Jermaine Jenas - 0 (0%) Patrick Kluivert - 1 (0.4%) Lomana Tresor LuaLua - 0 (0%) Albert Luque - 13 (5.8%) Jamie McClen - 8 (3.6%) Obafemi Martins - 1 (0.4%) James Milner - 0 (0%) Craig Moore - 2 (0.9%) Charles N'Zogbia - 0 (0%) Andy O'Brien - 6 (2.7%) Michael Owen - 1 (0.4%) Scott Parker - 0 (0%) Matthew Pattison - 17 (7.6%) Peter Ramage - 13 (5.8%) Laurent Robert - 2 (0.9%) David Rozehnal - 2 (0.9%) Alan Shearer - 2 (0.9%) Antoine Sibierski - 0 (0%) Alan Smith - 18 (8.1%) Nolberto Solano - 1 (0.4%) Gary Speed - 2 (0.9%) Steven Taylor - 0 (0%) Hugo Viana - 7 (3.1%) Mark Viduka - 0 (0%) Jonathan Woodgate - 2 (0.9%) I'll make the first cut of the list in a second...

This is just an initial list by the way, I'll cut it down and reset later.

If you've played, you are there, it's only fair. They obviously won't get votes though.

Above is an uber-list of the 53 players who have played in 15+ games since 2003. Who in your opinion are the worst of the lot and why? You can vote for five players. Round 2: You can now vote for three players Round 3: You can now vote for two players Semi final: You can now vote for one player
