Tamas Priskin who we loaned from Ipswich who almost got us a transfer embargo in our first PL transfer window has got to be up there. [Post edited 14 Jun 2014 11:29]

Amankwaah yeah.
Howard was good for us the year we won Division 3 and Murphy wasn't even the worst signing that summer.
Taking into account the rest of the squad, contribution and cost, I'd go with...
Amankwaaah
Cotterill
That Portuguese Keeper - Moreria |  | | |

Not sure Moreira had a look in to be considered one of the first three signings.
Signed as a bit of a panic measure, we then signed Vorm and Tremmel and he was relegated to our third choice.
Currently playing for Omonia in Cyprus. |  | | |

At least Priskin scored a goal. If we are counting loan signings then surely Shecter and Vasquez must be in with a shout. |  | | |

As someone who's been watching for donkey's years I'd have to say Aiden Newhouse, Colin McDonald (the 5'5" striker signed my Molby from Scotland) and perm any one from Richie Appleby (most overrated player by our own fans ever in my book) , maybe Amankwaah and Pawel Abbot. |  |

Gary Fisken
Vasquez - given the money we paid in loan fee for a truly dreadful player
Aiden Newhouse - Came with big expectations having played for Wimbledon and Fulham... but absolutely terrible
Notable mentions to Tommy Mutton and Michael Jackson too who were both terrible.
How people can suggest Michael Howard as a bad signing when he played 229 games... was in a championship winning team and in a defence that set defensive records. |  |

A bit harsh dude with his injuries then a car crash! But maybe for the best as he may have pushed Leon out of the side/club and altered the course if history as we know it! | |

Wouldn't say Cotterill was a bad signing at all, he just lost confidence in himself, and then so did Brendan. He scored that cracking free kick against Newcastle at home. [Post edited 14 Jun 2014 12:01]

Michael Howard's a nice guy. Works as a skills tutor for one of the training providers in town these days. |  |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Shecter is top of the pile for me and its quite a pile, but at the end of the day they all played their part in our history, I was never a fan of Rory can't score Fallon, but some others loved him. |  |

First two that popped in to my head were the same as yours, Newhouse and MacDonald but I liked Oh Richie Richie....Richie Richie Richie Richie Appleby. Would definitely have Tommy Mutton ahead of him in the crapness stakes. [Post edited 14 Jun 2014 12:39]

It's all about opinions but I really think it's pretty hard to be ever present in a back 4 that kept most clean sheets in the history of a club (at the time) and yet be one of it's all time worst players. Was he really worse than leigh devulght, David Putnam, Matthew Greg, Gary Fiskin, Colin McDonald, Aidan Newhouse, Tommy Mutton,Brian Cash, Jonathon keaveny, David Smith, Terry Evans, Michael Jackson, David Theobold, Charlie hartfield, Leon Hylton, Marcus Bean or Ijah Anderson? | | | |

Although that doesn't say much. Nouble did a better job than Priskin, or on second thoughts maybe not.
From my time Rory Fallon would be close. That chap we got from Brighton and then loaned straight out was as pointless as moreira. Maybe the were decent players but we'll never know. |  | | |
