[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Napoleon III and or Bazaine.

[Subedai]

How about Sir Hew Dalrymple, the guy who signed the Convention of Cintra during the early stages of the Peninsular War?

Major-General Henry Proctor, War of 1812. Accounted as personally brave but his incompetence allowed the Americans to run rings around him.

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Brigade Braddock - not only did he get his troops massacred, he fail to get Lt Col G Washington Virginia Milita killed at the same time.
