Players you have to be reminded that they played for us.

Who was the bloke from Barnsley, signed in '84, banged in a few goals that I don't remember, then left just before the season started turning to shite? Had a John Byrne mullet.
 
Nicolas Medina
Giuseppe something or other , played away at walsall in the cup around 2001ish

Both gonna be the next big thing, along with Baki Mercimek

Marcos di Giuseppe reidy bought him think he only played one game
Got transferred to Walsall made his debut against us promptly scored as well

Typical Sunderland
 
Kevin Cooper, on loan about the same time as the aforementioned Simon Johnson. Can't remember a single thing either did.
Cooper only played about 8 minutes as sub - in an away defeat to Millwall. I vaguely remember him warming up on the touchline and thinking 'Who's that?'
Didn't he get get sent off on his debut or least sent off
He might well have done. I seem to remember a run of nil nils at home around the time he was here. One player around that time who did get sent off on his debut or at least his first start was Gareth Hall - but unfortunately I've never forgot about him playing for us

Shay Given (think he was only on loan from the mags though?) Edit : Blackburn even !

Harper was such a weird one. He only played once and it was a closed doors friendly.

Lorik Cana I forget played for us.
Harper was nothing more than an emergency cover signing iirc.

Don't know how you'd remember Cana's name, and forget he played for us though. I know absolutely nothing about him OTHER than he played for us.
 
Simon Johnson. Still to this day have absolutely no recollection of him. I will have seen most of his appearances home and away but he’s been completely erased from my memory.
Loan from Leeds iirc. No better than what we already had. Pointless.
