Not a very good player, but nowhere near as bad as some make out.

I used to work with his dad, a Chelsea supporter, and he hated it every time I said that he couldn't take a corner for sh1t! I suppose as it was his son he saw the sun shining out of his arse Nearly as bad as Craig Harrison who played as if he always had a broken leg

Decent enough player but was intimidated by Darren Ward. Who was the idiot on here who used to refer to him as 'Horrordale'?

Over the past 10 years i don't think we have faired too badly. Go back 20 to 30 years and yes we have had some proper s***e!

Gary did a decent job for us but seemed to lack confidence - his crossing was woeful. However, he was an academy product so didn't cost us anything and we got a few hundred grand when we sold him, so it is unfair to say he was a failure. Of the academy players - none of whom i like to have a go at - the worst i can remember where Robert Quinn, striker Martin (no pace or ball control and a bit lazy) and in the late 90s a young winger called Rory Ginty. Wayne Carlisle wasn't much better. Really the issue is with big money flops as they are the ones who cost the club - Ismail, Kuqi, that Israeli bloke etc cost the club millions and that's where we should focus our anger

I watched Gary develop as a youngster in our successful Academy. Whilst he was developing he was top class,I remember when he had trials for England schoolboys. I was employed at the satalight centre in Bracknell where we had a good production line for the Academy. Gary was a good prospect at youth level.
As somebody else has pointed out, we got a reasonable fee for him when he left, so on that basis alone he was a successful product of our academy.

nothing personal but I thought he was awful. Only capable of hoofing the ball down the line to find touch.
