Apparently cried like a baby, fell to his knees screaming and punching the floor, when the judge delivered the Wigan striker’s 18 month jail sentence. Seems like besides struggling to score goals for the Latics from open play he also can’t take penalties very well either!!. :lol: :P :o :D :mrgreen:
Is he officially our worst ever striker ?
£5m and only one goal to show for it; and that was a penalty at Blackburn that only just dribbled inside the post !
Hmmmmm…….Drewe Broughton was dire. (Only on loan, though)
And how bad was Peter Thorne in his loan spell with us? 2 broken noses, no goals.
Gary Powell was like Michael Owen compared to King!
All that said, for the 5 million or so we spent on King, you would have expected so much more. I really hope that Whelan can, and does sue him. Chelsea are still sueing Adrian Mutu, and apparently, he’s still in the process of paying them 14 million, that he is judged to owe them, after his cocaine abuse ban.
14 million. Ouch! :D
Sad thing is, both obviously had some decent ability….yet have wasted it. Shame on them.

king may have been bad but from what i saw of him and what i have seen from scotland i think king has more chance of doing well for us in the next 18 months than scotland has.
in fact after giving it a little thought , scotland and gomez may be the next 2 jailed,
there must be some offence for impersonating a premiership footballer.
