HighworthOwl Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Just seen this online. Last player to score 20 goals in a season for each club. It’s been a while! I thought McLean scored 20 but it was 18. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snaykz Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Mark Bright (twice, 1993 and 1994), Steve MacLean (2005) and Neil Mellor (2011) all scored 20 or more goals in a season for us since 1991. I assume the original post refers to league goals only. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnchanter Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Great stats. I've thought about this a lot over recent years. Almost every team has had a 20 goal a season striker and we never can manage it. Not that it always makes a difference if the goals are spread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Be lucky to get a striker hit 10 this season atm Really poor return so far from our 'strikers' Smith is a borderline flop imo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any event, does it even matter if you have most of the team weighing in with goals? It's not who gets the goals that's important, it's that the goals are got and we are getting plenty! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well smith has played 18 games this season Remember he was injured for some And contributes a goal ever 4.5 games That's 10 goals in a full season For the money we are paying him ,I'd expect a better goal rate Gregory 1 in 5 (9 goals in a season) Patterson 1 in 7 (6 goals in a season) Windass 1 in 5.5 (8 goals in a season) Its simply not good enough 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah Owl Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Be honest, if we score in the region of 90 goals this season and get promoted (quite likely) who is going to be bothered if none of our strikers get 20? Answer none of us! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanyowls Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 I'd love another David Hirst but as long as we win and get promoted, I don't care who scores. A lower league Haaland would be nice. That guy is a goal machine. Anyone out there we know of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexpistol Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 The 20 goal striker thing is a bit of a myth tbh. When we went up in 2012 we didn’t have a 20 goal a season striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith will score goals. taking shots from outside the box, Smith wont get many. we do this all the time buy strikers that dont fit our way of playing then blame them for not being good enough. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
