I think he only played one game, my picks would be Jack Overfield, Rod Belfit. and Jozy Altidore off the top of my head, but I am sure the list is long and very painful.

Roly Gregoire played 9 times for us over 2 years.

We signed him after he scored a hat-trick against our reserves, It turned out that the reserve team performance was the highlight of his career.

I agree that Rod Belfit should also be right up there on this list. Don't forget Barry Dunn either.

I vaguely recollect this chap.
Black people in Sunderland must have been as rare as rocking horse **** at the time.

I think he was the first coloured player to play for us, when I was a kid there was only one coloured person in Monkwearmouth,, a companion to an old blind woman, and they made a very strange sight in Roker Avenue in those days, its a bit different now. <laugh>

That probably says it all. <laugh>

Played (I use the term loosely) on the left wing at the same time as a certain Charles Hurley.

He was an absolute shocker mate he really was.

Who was that scottish striker we signed. Scored for fun ower the border, came here and turned into Jozy overnight.

Charlie .........?

I remember being full of hope when we signed Cunnington.
Crosby signed him from Grimsby. He was their captain and was rated as being the best midfielder in the division.
Injuries didn't help him at all, but when he played he looked so out of sorts it was untrue
 
Nick Medina for wasteful signing.

Worst signing has to be a mix of cost/piss poor.........Tore Andre Flo. Club record at the time. Most disappointing £/min Sunderland signing in history.

remember Carsten 'left foot of Giggs, right of Beckham' Fredgaard
 
oh actually, i take it all back. I think Kevin Kyle was the worst footballer ive ever seen for anyone anywhere. He had one diving head in a game that i though was decent. Apart from that, i thought he was just some pleb that got past security and onto the pitch. Theres a reason he's a food porter on Stranraer ferry now.
