Worthy has signed 46 players

Permanently or on loan

By my reckoning (based on my opinion) he has a 40% success rate. Given that he's spent over ?10m players this is staggeringly low (and thats just published transfer fees). He has admitted it himself to us by only making a profit on one player (Francis)

Succesful purchases:
Gary Holt
Adam Drury
Paul Crichton
Damien Francis
Marc Edworthy
Leon McKenzie
Mathias Svensson
Darren Huckerby
Youssef Safri
Darren Ward
Gary Doherty
Dean Ashton
Jurgen Colin
Andy Hughes

Successful loans:
Leigh Bromby
Peter Crouch
Kevin Cooper
Calum Davenport

Waste of money (even the free transfers) signings:
Zema Abbey
Clint Easton
Mark Rivers
Neil Emblen
Marc Libbra
Keith Briggs
David Nielsen
Jim Brennan
Paul Heckingbottom
Paul Gallacher
Simon Charlton
Thomas Helveg
Mattias Jonson
Graham Stuart
Jason Jarrett
Matthieu Louis-Jean
Peter Thorne

The loans that should have worked out but for whatever reason didn't list:
Paul Peschisolido
David Healy
Kevin Harper
David Bentley
Dean Marney

And the truely awful list:
Andy Roberts - WHY?
Trevor Benjamin - WHY?
Nicky Southall - WHY?
Elvis Hammond - WHY?
Kevin Lisbie - WHY?
