The N-O Obscure Premiership 11 - Position(s) 2: RB/LB - Nominate!


Recommended Posts

Frank Sinclair at RB for the comedy own goals and vomiting loads:

 

During his time with Leicester, Sinclair developed an unfortunate reputation for scoring own goals.[9] This was caused initially by two own goals in consecutive weekends in 1999. The first was a great leap at Highbury to give Arsenal a 2–1 win.[10] He managed to refrain from putting through his own net against Coventry City the following Wednesday, but then scored another at home to former club Chelsea,[11] where he beat Tore André Flo to the ball to smash it into his own net and lose Leicester their one goal lead. The importance of these goals was accentuated by the fact that both came in the last minute of the match, and both caused Leicester to drop points, although it wasn't enough to prevent him from remaining a first team regular.

 

Sinclair was fined two weeks wages by Leicester in September 2001 for his part in an incident at a Heathrow hotel. Sinclair, along with four Chelsea players, had gone on a five-hour drinking binge and had stripped off, swore and vomited in front of American tourists just hours after the 11 September attacks which killed nearly 3,000 people in America.[12]

Carlos Salcido- over 100 games for Mexico, house got robbed in London and left Fulham immediately

 

Roque Junior- World Cup winner, played for Leeds

 

Ulises de la Cruz- Ecuadorian who managed to play for Villa, Birmingham and Hibernian

 

 

In a few years time we could probably say Dwight Tiendalli as the player that kept us up

Stephen Jordan, of Man City and Burnley fame.

 

On the Man City theme, Richard Edghill. And another full back called Foster. Can't recall his first name.

 

EDIT: It's John and he made 16 appearances for them in the mid 90's...fuck knows how I recalled him.

Michael Ball is a good one.

 

"Ball messaged the Coronation Street actor Antony Cotton, who is openly gay and plays the factory worker Sean Tully in the long-running soap opera. Cotton was at the time appearing in I'm a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! "That f***ing queer," Ball wrote. "Get back to your sewing machine in Corrie you moaning b******." The message has since been deleted."

 

Was also captain for Man City for like an hour.
