Curse of the returning striker

[mattytheshrimper]

I knew this would happen so I put a bet on that Sampson would score first, so not only did I lose my bet but we also lost the game and I was correct in thinking he would score but not first :(

Sampson has been outstanding for us so far this season. Should have been given a goal against Exeter that was so far over the line that it would have needed "back of the net technology" to see it ! He will move for a big fee before his 2 year contract is up.

Sorry i just can't see it myself, destined to be a journeyman lower league striker for me.

Lee Nogan seemed to score against us all the time.

 

[C C Csiders]

Richie Foran scored against team mates.

Matt Harrold! - I say not nothing else!

 

[Paddington Blue]

The bread that keeps on giving...Inevitable that Harrold would score again

 

[Paddington Blue]

perhaps that should have been thread!

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

It is not just the scoring but also the improvement in the game play of Harrold and also Sampson which is annoying.

Charlie MacDonald scored at the Hall for Brentford. Tommy Mooney scored a few against us. One whilst on loan at Watford whilst still our player

Matt Harrold - 5 in 7 against us, 3 in 52 for us. Unbelievable really...

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Matt Harrold - 5 in 7 against us, 3 in 52 for us. Unbelievable really...

Those 52 were all at a higher level.

Shows he's found his feet in L2.

Now that useless piece of pooh Midson can join this list, poor penalty too.

 

[Paddington Blue]

Okay so Moussa is not a striker but given his impact from the subs bench today I am adding his name to this list of returning party poopers

 

[leeblue]

Curse????? Mooooooooosse simply inspiring us

 

[Paddington Blue]

As with so many other loanee strikers Cauley was pants playing for us but joins the long list of returning ex- blues strikers who seem to find a new motivation playing against us. We rather gifted him his goals today.
Mitchell Pinnock also took three points from us last week - I am hoping Nile ranger does not get another club soon as he is surely destined to join this list!

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

Ranger might get his chance Boxing Day for Ox U.

 

[Chrisb]

Ranger might get his chance Boxing Day for Ox U.

Thought they had decided not to offer him a contract.

 

[RHB]

Ranger might get his chance Boxing Day for Ox U.

Definitely not happening

Lee Nogan seemed to score against us all the time.

Lee Nogan's the first name that sprang to my mind too. I remembered him being pretty poor when we had him on loan which made it worse. More recently Roy O'Donovan very similar and I think he scored a hat trick against us too.
EDIT: Just noticed you've already mentioned him Ricey!

I think I'll have to have a bet on Ladapo for first goal when Plymouth come to Roots Hall. You just know it's going to happen!

 

[Paddington Blue]

Cauley woodrow, Ben Reeves, Freddie Ladapo and Mitchell Pinnock have all added to our woes in recent weeks and if we don’t buck up our ideas could contribute to sending us down. I am certainly not looking forward to seeing wordsworth back in a few weeks as he may feel he has a point to prove.
