Rob Earnshaw -
The
whole Earnie episode will go down as one of the most mysterious in
Rams history. Our record signing and proven goalscorer yet ignored
by both managers. No one could say he was rubbish- we didn’t see
enough of him. Most Rams fans were sympathetic to Earnie’s plight
but we now wish him all the worst with his new club.
Best Moment: His
only moment - his goal and celebration against Arsenal.
Worst Moment:
His
open goal miss at Boro just beaten by Signing for Forest.
Michael Johnson-
You
could never accuse Jonno of a lack of passion or commitment (he broke
a bone most games before playing the next) but he was never the
worlds most gifted footballer. Great to have when we were up against
it but often one step away from unforced error when we weren’t.
Having said that we had far more than our £20k’s worth and wish him
well.
Best Moment:
His
first season under Burley that helped turn us from relegation to
promotion candidates.
For Jonno himself, lifting the Play off trophy with Oakley.
Worst Moment:
When Phil Brown announced he planned to build his defence around
Jonno and gave him a lengthy new contract.
Lee Holmes -
Lee
Holmes represented and captained England at Youth level when Tom
Huddlestone was barely getting a game. However, despite the Rams
crying out for a proper left winger, Holmes never took the chance
when given a run in the side. After all the initial hope, it was sad
to see him slip away.
Best Moment:
Entering the record books as the youngest player ever in the FA Cup.
Being sponsored by the Baseball Bat Fanzine (i.e us) the following
season.
Worst Moment:
When Billy Davies signed 19 year old left winger Ryan Smith, the
writing was on the wall for our own teenage winger.
