I like looking back at Wimbledon's squad; their top scorers I can't remember, like...John Fashanu (taking a mighty two England caps)


Don't remember Gladiators then?

Known as much for Gladiators and being a homophobic tit as his football.

Bought after Euro 1996 so 1996 - 1998, I think. Don't know if I'd call him (or any first team regular for the biggest and most successful side in England) particularly obscure, however. Was reasonably well known in the 1990s, became particularly well known after Euro 96. Played a role in a the 96-97 title winning side. Undoubtedly one of the least remembered late 90s Manchester United first team regulars; amongst neutrals at least.

90s top flight footballers. He only played in the third, second and (old) first division in the nineties. City didn't get promoted until 2000.

I was going to name one or two signings Dalglish made at his time at Newcastle (destroying Keegan's team) but they're so obscure I've forgotten who they are...

Ostenstad isn't obscure! Who could forget 'that' hat-trick in the 6-3 win at the Dell after Keegan said United wouldn't concede 5 again for a long long time.....beautiful.
Nikki Papavasiliou - only Cypriot to ever play in the Premier League. 1993-1994 for Newcastle.

This is a wonderful thread :biggrin:

This. In terms of Czech footballers, Poborsky is arguably more famous than Petr Cech and Milan Baros. Not to mention that he has more national caps than either of them.
Marco Boogers was enjoyably nutty.
