Somebody needs to update his Wiki account because non of that is mentioned.


Scroll down to Career Statistics on his Wikipedia 😉

PS. 26 games in a season is just over half, plus how many of those 17 games did he actually complete the 90 minutes?


He played 9/13 league games for Hereford plus 2 cup games and then joined us on 12th February where he played in 17/23 games, playing 90 minutes in at least 12 of them. He played 28/38 games in total which is pretty much 75%.

If Harry Clifton could finish he would be one of the answers to our goal famine and would be a half decent player

What do we put the high number of injuries down to… history aside? Should we be concerned about our sport science/fitness set up? Has the new pitch at Cheapside played a part?

People are saying we should expect a sluggish start to the season… this is what is concerning me. Due to when the league 2 season ended in comparison with the National League, we, along with Southend should have had a big head start in terms of pre-season preparations on most other teams, we should be the fittest team in the league, no excuses.

It doesn’t seem like this will be the case though. Has the additional prep time we have had over most other teams been utilised effectively or have we waged a good opportunity?!

It's always put out there that Giles Coke is some sort of crock but he played 9 of Herefords' 13 league games last season and went on to play for us 17 times after signing mid-February. 26 games last season alone.

In 2012/13 he played 16 Championship games and followed this up with a respectable 28 in 2013/14. In 2014/15, he played 17 Championship games and then joined Ipswich where he played 10 Championship games in 2015/16. That is 71 Championship games in a period where he's alleged to have hardly kicked a ball.

At Ipswich he did suffer a bad knee injury that required surgery. He was released at the end of 2016/17 and didn't sign for Chesterfield until February 2018 so that knee injury could have been a tough one to overcome. He was released by Chesterfield following their relegation and signed for Oldham. Giles has since gone on record to state that he was fit for selection throughout his time at Oldham and attributed his lack of appearances at Oldham as problems with the club's owner, although not elaborating on the details he says his absence was not down to injury.


My mistake for assuming that Wiki career stats would be chronological. However, playing 47 games in the last six seasons with almost a quarter of them being in a semi-professional league isn’t exactly reassuring is it? Fantastic attitude, clearly a nice bloke and undoubtedly a good player during his career but making out his recent record wouldn’t be concerning is daft. He might have played 28 games last season but they were for either a midtable NLN side or for the worst team in the FL. Not exactly a glowing reference.

I still maintain that the lack of quality in depth in midfield is a worry. Fox looks a great signing if he stays fit. But Coke, Clifton and Spokes were not good enough to keep us in the league and won’t be good enough to get us back in to it without extra quality being added alongside them. And they weren’t good enough even with Matete playing in there, arguably our best player last season.

Mild hysteria in this thread. Can we not loan players all season in the conference?

It's The Fishy. People overreact if we win or lose.
