Amond got the goals in the season of his life and alot of variation to them. Excellent striker without really exciting you in his play.
Connell had a great season for us, always seemed to score classy goals as opposed to scruffy off the shin efforts.
Hearn and Bogle both got goals but in all honesty never convinced me as good finishers.
Drinkell, good old fashioned striker with great supply.
Mendonca, hard working, good goal ratio, a striker you believed in when he was through.

but for all those i think Reddy for me gave us an all too brief glimpse of true pace and finishing from a higher level. Hilarious to watch the oppostion try and stop him once he had started a run, uncatchable and the coolness of finish when running felt pelt at a keeper with defenders trying to hack you down was wonderful.

Strikers for me have to give you either ridiculous goal per game ratio that you just know they will score or some extra special skills/ ability that leave you in awe, Reddy not a bad goal rate at all ,around 1 in 2.5 games, but the manner of many of them i dont think i will see in a Town shirt again.

All those mentioned had good qualities, some had good seasons, but for me, as an all round striker, Kev Drinkell


<'(((((<

When I was a little boy
I asked my daddy what would i be
would I be United, would i be Leeds
Here's what he said to me

Oh Grimsby Grimsby
Whatever will be will be
You'll follow then faithfully
Oh Grimsby Grimsby


Tell me Mam me Mam

Drinkell. I guess had I seen Matt Tees I’d be him, but Drinkell was class. Many run him close though.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!

Without a doubt Matt Tees. You always knew when you needed a goal, he would score.

Nailed it Meza.. Special mentions for Bogle alongside Amond for 2010s, Trevor Whymark and Neil Woods plus Steve Kabba in his loan spell with us..


Yeah there are a few as you mentioned I just couldn't squeeze them in.  Neil Woods and Tony Rees and quick Micky Boulding.

Seen most of those mentioned from the end of the Tees era onward, but Trevor Whymark is my all time favourite Town player, so it has to be him for me.
