    Well Left back was another hard position to fill, quite a few names mentioned and it was close in the end, Shorey took 2nd place but there had to be a winner!

    Congratulations to Ryan McGivern! You've been named our Worst Ever Left Back..

    We now move on to the centre back positions. You will need to nominate 2! yes 2 players. Another hard selection.... I want to say Fontaine but he wasn't always bad... but when he was, he was pure dogshite! Still though, scratch me head and i'll get back to y'all..

    I was thinking El-Abd but I don't think he has had a fair crack of the whip...

    Damion Stewart....?

    Centre backs. Its 4-4-2. Caesar and errr I don't want to pick a current HIM of the current squad so I'm going 3-5-2. Wost wing backs and El HIM ... This isn't working.

    Aizlewood.
    He moaned at Mark Shail at every opportunity. Shail was light years a better player.

    Dyche was one who came with a reputation but was worse than useless.

    Nyatanga for me. All he ever wanted to do was get rid of the ball. Looked panicky and never felt comfortable when the ball went near him.

    Fontaine's latter performances would normally get him there but I do recall a centre back that we had on loan from Rangers called Andy Webster. I expected so much more and thought he was poor.

    Best 2 would have been easy. Caulker and Shaun Taylor.

    Danny Coles - an overweight, overhyped lager lout cart horse who had little respect for how lucky he was to be classed as a professional, and one of the biggest egos for no reason I've ever seen.

    This needs some very careful thought as remembering all the donkeys of the past 60 years will not be well done this evening due to copious amounts of vinho tinto.

    I know he was one of the Ashton Gate Eight but Julian Marshall was a totally incompetent joke of a centre half.
    Look no further fellow City fans.

    I tried to put Gus Ceaser at left back but he gets my vote for Centre Back also, equally poor whether he played. Irzy Iriekpen is my shout for his partner

    Julian Marshall was like a rabbit caught in the headlights anytime the ball came near him, but good old Gus just shades it.

    And to think he played in Arsenal's first team too !
