Review of This Seasons 26 League Goals

[portugull]

On a quiet Sunday with the aid of Gulls Player I reviewed our 26 league goals.

The star striker with 10 was Rene Howe followed by Billy Bodin and Aaron Downes both with 3 and Ryan Jarvis and Danny Stevens with 2 each. 6 other players chipped in with one goal each.

18 shots, 7 headers and 1 off Rene`s backside from a goal keeper error.

When it came to assists Nathan Craig led the way with 5 followed by 3 each from Rene and Nico.

Some of the highlights I picked up from the review was the considerable number of brilliant saves by Michael Poke and just how unselfish Rene Howe is in laying off the ball when he thinks a team mate is in a better position to score.

What I failed to do was to see how many goals were scored from inside the 6 yard box and inside the penalty area.

Another point worth making is Billy Bodin has been very unlucky numerous times when the ball has missed the target by a very narrow margin. He is a much better player than many of us give him credit for and I am sure he will come good with a more experience.

The stand out players have been Rene Howe, Michael Poke and our two centre backs Brian Saah and Aaron Downes. No surprise there.

Careful, Jonnyfive et al will be along shortly telling you you need to get a life because you've dared spend 5 minutes thinking independently.

Good effort and thanks for it, but I'm not sure that missing the target lots really counts as unlucky. If TUFC need someone to play every week and miss the target lots, I can make myself available and I'll do it for half what they pay Billy.

Matt.

I'll do it for a quarter of what Billy gets plus a bag of Revels.
