Crap Loanees as Pro Wrestlers #8

Ugo Ehi-HOG


Calling Ehiogu a crap loanee is maybe a little harsh. He was one of a bunch of signings that Wise made in late 06/ early 07 that you looked at and thought: "He's a brilliant signing... if it's actually 1999." (The others were Flo and Alan Thompson!)

His performances were mixed; according to Phil Hay, on his debut the defence were 'calm and organised' (no mean feat in the 06/07 side) and he scored in his next game against Barnsley. 

However, he scored an own goal, and was involved in a defensive mix up for another in a 3-1 defeat at Stoke.

Ultimately, he left after just 6 games, admitting that he didn't have the fitness to play 2 games in a week. Maybe more of a 'mediocre loan' than a crap one.
