I never thought I'd see a worse player in the red and white than "Lethal" Keith, but I'm wondering whether Pericard could have finally dislodged the big dummy from number one spot in the all-time league of wanky strikers?
Scott may have been clumsy, lazy and wank, but in his favour he did regularly get into good goalscoring positions in the six yard box. Ok, he did miss most of them (how can anyone ever forget his miss from 3 yards against Portsmouth...and against Notts County...erm, and away at Luton) but I can't remember Pericard ever even bothering to get into the penalty area.
At least Scott also won a few headers. Again, the direction the ball went in was pretty random, and made Michael Duberry's "50p bonce headers" look like some kind of pinpoint heat-seeking missiles, but at least he wasn't out-jumped by a 5 foot 9 midget centre back.
I never thought I'd say it but...lethal Keith, your 12 year reign as the all-time wankiest Stoke striker has ended. Vincent Pericard, you have now been awarded this honour.
The camel is dead....long live the camel.

One thing in Pericants favour is he is only 4th choice where Scott was a regular.I think Scotts miss at Luton was the worst I've seen from a Stoke player ever, but for Pericants overall lack of effort I think he takes the crown.

Lethal Keith was shite but this bloke take the biscuit!
Vince is a joke and by far the worst footballer to ever play in top flight football!
Now if you are reading this Vince, do us all a favour! Pack in and F*CK OFF YOU USELESS BONE IDLE WASTE OF SKIN PISS POOR EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING!

Yes, at least LK got into the six yard box to miss! We don't need to make this personal though. VP doesn't pick himself or pay his own wages. The accountability rests squarely with the manager.

I watched Mike Sheron playing for Man City in the old mens 5-a-side football the other night, and he still looked to be in pretty decent shape. Well, he didn't have a massive beer-gut like some of them.
Maybe we should tempt him and Steino out of retirement...what a great Roy-of-the-Rovers style storyline that would be, Two 40 year old former legends make a joint comeback to fire Stoke out of the relegation zone on the last day of the season (ably assisted by half-of-Spandau ballet*)
*If you didn't read Roy-of-the-Rovers in the 80s then this reference will be lost on you. Sorry.

Look at the stick Carruthers used to get and yet at least he tried! Too hard if anything at times. Vince is robbing Stoke City FC of 190k a year wages if thats what he apparently gets paid!

Having Pericard in your starting line up is about as advantageous as having Def Leppard's drummer playing for your basketball side.
For the record, I'd just like to congratulate this for keeping this act up for well over two years. Go on son.

i'd even let Pericard tackle my granny and she's been dead 20 odd years, but he was quoted in Sentinel in the week that he was looking forward to today as he always gives his best!!!!!!!!!!! So sorry vince but you aint good enough now, never have been, and never will be.

I think you should widen the question:
Is Pericard WORSE than getting a punting a hedgehog right in its snuffly little dog-food craving face because it looks in at your French windows?

Of course he is. I can never remember seeing any player at any club before who you didn't think at least put in a decent effort every so often. Vincent is unique
