Hated to loved

Just thinking about players that came in that the fans hated that managed to turn it around and become a bit of a fans favourite.
Think Gary Mills did the biggest turn around I’ve seen.

Going further afield, David Beckham. He was hated when he got sent off against Argentina then became a national treasure.

I was going to say Darren Hay but wasn't sure if that was disliked to liked. Hate and love are strong words that I don't use lightly, though society tends to throw them around willy nilly.

Steve Watson ? Yes mad and the odd red but a bit like Pratley opposition fans hated him but own fans don't.

I’m not sure he was loved at all. He was an average midfielder that GW brought with him from Farnborough, taking the captaincy off King Jase.

Andy Bond?
Not sure he was ever loved but perhaps left on better terms with the fans than when he came in.
