Ollie Watkins

[Astnor]

I did watch the highlights from the Brighton game now and Watkins is also very much involved in all the three goals he did not score himself with him making our attacks running with the ball. Very impressing game from him.

[brontebilly]

Classic Watkins to miss the easiest chance of the lot late on against the Netflix keeper!

Just catching up on the numberwang from the weekend. Watkins has now scored more that Carew & Benteke.

I take the odd photo, because I like taking them, and it serves as a memory of the game. I get a shot of the line up and the scoreboard at the end, and one or two during the game too.

That's fair enough, it's the people holding their camera out videoing every single corner and free kick that piss me off.

it’s worse at gigs.

Yep, getting back 10 yards is tricky.

You mean you don’t keep your own records?
Don’t think there’s a definitive list easily available online.
https://www.avfchistory.co.uk is your best bet but it doesn’t do a list by scorers.

I hate the fact the fat waster Gabby is our all time leading PL scorer, I hope Ollie stays and smashes that one. 

[chrisw1]

What it must have been like to see Pongo in his pomp.

[SoccerHQ]

His fitness record is insane for us, must've been born with incredible genetics!

I make it he's missed about five league games for us in just over three years?

And one of those was serving one match ban for that ridiculous red card v Man. United when Henderson took him out.

[nick harper]

Given our history, it’s amazing only 4 players have ever scored more than 100 league goals for us and no-one has got anywhere near since Johnny Dixon.

[Lastfootstamper]

Compu'er sez seven.

[dave shelley]

Another remarkable stat is of the 215 goals Billy Walker scored for us, only 3 were penalties.

[brontebilly]

Given our history, it’s amazing only 4 players have ever scored more than 100 league goals for us and no-one has got anywhere near since Johnny Dixon.

Gabby should have easily passed that mark. Only 13 goals in his last 5 seasons with us!

This list isn't right, unless I've missed some filtering. Hampton is tied on Walker with 215 goals. Joe Bache doesn’t appear at all but scored 167, same with John Devey who got 168.
