Still searching for his first goal since signing for Conference South side Havant & Waterlooville......4 starts, 4 sub appearances and 2 FA Cup games .

Thought he might have banged a few in for them by now


Batch, K.Moore, Waters, Wiggington, Crombie, Brolly, Ford, Drinkell, Mitchell, Cumming, Kilmore. D.Moore, Stone, Liddell. ....1979/80..... now that WAS a team.

Isn't that over 50 games without a goal? Think AC's time may be up

Apart from his very respectable time at Swindon the next season.

But, He's only had one prolific season in his entire career, Here at Town.
Even at Swindon he only scored 11 in 32 games.
His best before coming to town was 12 in a season at Brentford.
Since leaving town He has only scored 19 goals in 94 games.
Just a return of one goal per five games.

19 of those 32 were as sub though. I reckon that's impressive, especially as it's a league higher.

Obviously he's a bit crap these days, which is a shame.

I like your turn of phrase, which I agree with
What a shame though, if only he had stayed here, who knows what might have happened.

He scored some classy goals for us (and some great near misses).  Always good to watch.

When he returned I hoped he might bang in a couple of 25 yarders for old times sake! Alas, it was not to be.

Don't like the guy but would not wish injury on him, I hope he soon recovers
