23. Alan Harper

Mr Versatility was his name. But there was more to Alan Harper than being a jack of all trades. Harps or John Holmes to his close team mates was part of the successful Everton set up of the mid 80's under Howard Kendall.

Signed from the shite in the early 80's, he soon became a cult figure at Goodison mainly down to his bonce and his porn star mussy, hence the nickname John Holmes.

Harps worked on at the club at Academy level until a while ago, but his hair was scaring the kids that much, that he took the decision to move on.

People tend to forget however that Alan played 240 times for the Blues, winning countless honours, and scoring an FA Cup Semi Final goal against Sheffield Wednesday back in 1986. (04/08/06)

21. Mickael Madar

Mad Micky was probably one of Howard Kendall's strangest ever signing's not for his footballing ability but his ridiculous pony tailed barnet.

The Frenchman's time on Merseyside was not one of too many highs, but for Herbert and all the other barbers in the area they were delighted to play with the Frenchy's flowing locks.

Howard went, and in came hard man Walter. The Glaswegian nut took one look at this gay looking French fella', and told him either to cut his mullet or fuck off, Madar duly left, with a record of six goals in 17 appearances over two seasons.

He is definitely one ex Blue who is not missed, and his barnet can go back to were it belonged, France, says it all really.

Cheers to John G of Norris Green for supplying the photo (15/06/06)

20. Andy Johnston

Shocking, absolutely shocking. When this snap was sent into us by Top Toffee man Dan Ferrie, all at bluekipper recoiled in disgust. Maybe in the Birmingham area you can get away with this awful barnet, but not in the Capital of Culture.

On deeper investigations, it was found that the Blues board nearly refused to sanction the transfer of AJ, because of photo's like this coming into the public domain. Paul Mc Cartney you think you have problems, if AJ does not do it on the pitch, I am sure more of these hideous snaps will find themselves into the daily rags.

I am off for a drink to settle myself, thank Christ you got your mullet shaved. Welcome AJ to the hall of bad hair doo's. (08/06/06)

19. John Bailey

80's joker in the pack, John Bailey. He made people laugh not with his sense of humour, but with his terrible barnet. John like most of his team mates of the day sported the now infamous perm look, but unfortunately for Bails he was born with his mullet like this.

After beating Watford 2-0 in the 1984 FA Cup Final, Bails is remembered for wearing the Marge Simpson size hat whilst celebrating that famous day. To the day the guy who gave him the hat, still testifies he only brought it so Bails could put it on to stop scaring the kids with his scouse barnet.

Quality fella, quality player, welcome to the hall of bad mullets Bails. (02/06/06)

18. Neil Pointon

Neil Pointon, by shit what a mullet, doubly bad when joined with his mussy, enters our hall of bad hair doo's, because, well just look at it.

Neil played for the Blues in the mid 80's, signed by Howard Kendall from Scunthorpe. He went onto win the League Championship in 1987, and the Charity Shield in the same year when we defeated Coventry 1-0.

Believe it or not, Neil did not have naturally curly hair, he actually paid some Herbert (the one of the telly), to curl his locks for him, it was all the rage in them days.

Neil was famously christened Dizza by all Blues fans (think about it), and one famous quote goes like so:

Son to Dad: 'Dad why do they call him Dizza'

Dad to Son: 'Coz he's shit son'

In fairness to Dizza, the League Championship medal tells us otherwise, but his barnet is still shocking. Welcome to bad mullet corner Neil. (24/05/06)

 

17. David Moyes

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Our beloved manager was once a youngster himself, with a playing career that included taking in Glasgow Giants Celtic.

Never again can Moyesy take a young player to one side, to guide him on his fashion sense, or how to have his mullet cut, after this shocker from the 80's.

Moyesy who openly admits to being a keen fan of the super group The Bee Gees, has made no secret of the fact that the fun lovin' Robin was the man he modelled himself on, and as a consequence followed his barnet style of the day.
