BS4 on Tour... Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 Morning all! Apologies if this has been posted before - it's a table ranking the 92 clubs in terms of the number of goals their top scorer of all time notched. Surely the guy at number one will never be beaten, unbelievable!

At least half of them must have been against us ! I remember him splaffing a hatrick against us up there as a bemused Glenn Humphries tried to get near him all afternoon! Pretty sure he got his 200th Wolves goal that day, amongst the three, in a 4-0 hammering! The season after we went up finishing second to the gas I think it was...

Wanderingred Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 Right, so that would make Atyeo the second highest football league goalscorer for a single club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOTBLUE Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 So the great John Atyeo is the second highest league ,single club ,goal scorer,that's some achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudski Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 What a stunning photo of big John. Look at that crowd...the elation of the ball going in the net. Reminds me so much of being a very small lad, and going round my friends house, and looking at pics with his Grandfather scoring for Scotland at a packed Hampden Park...and trying on his Scotland shirts. Those type of memories stay with you for life. Can remember it like it was yesterday...the smell and weight of the shirt...feeling in awe. I wonder if our modern day footballers still have that effect on the young 'ens these days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dullmoan Tone Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 If you work out the average goals per season it's even more remarkable. Some of the Top 20 like Arthur Morris, have done it in relatively so few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 The Barnet player at number four; He scored his goals in "just" ten years, everyone else on the list was at their club for a longer period of time. Might be interesting if the table was rearranged into games played / goals scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard an unsubstantiated rumour that Johnny Haynes didn't like Big John and basically made it clear to the manager who didn't want a split in the camp, so one had to go....have absolutely no idea if that is true or not..
