Should have had a bet on Chuba to do it this year!
I've been avoiding mentioning it. Fingers crossed for Chuba. He'll be in a very exclusive club if he can finish this off. I'm buzzing every time he scores.

15 was Ricard's best season , but 31 overall , yesI think Hamilton Ricard came close one season with 18 league goals.
I may be wrong, but I think he still holds the record of being our top Premier league goal scorer with 31 goals. I’m sure someone will correct me if I’m way off the mark!
Took Hamilton for a ride on a steam loco at the NYMR, I was the driver.I think Hamilton Ricard came close one season with 18 league goals.

Thanks B_I, wasn’t too far out!15 was Ricard's best season , but 31 overall , yes
Brilliant Si, that is class!Took Hamilton for a ride on a steam loco at the NYMR, I was the driver.
I don't think making bets on an individual player to score was a thing back then.Wikis telling me Hickton got 24 in 1967-68, the same again 1969-70 and 25 in 1970-71.
Wow, Cloughie got 42 in the 1958-59 season and 39 the next year. Would bookies even take bets on him to score back then?
it was only in the early 1990's that the trebles rule was lifted on football betting. This stipulated all football bets must be multiple bets with 3 or more selections up to this point.
So if Akpom had taken the second pen and scored he’s our highest league scorer since the 60s?
Ok thanks. Was it clough in 1960?Needs to get to 26 for that. Sorry my post above probably isn't very clear, I was a having too nice a time yesterday evening. Hickton got 25 in 1971 and Akpoms on 21 now. 5 more before the end of the season and yes, he's top man since 1960 (I think?).
Topics like this are why we really need Erimus back on the board.

It’s possibleI expect him to get to 25, can he get to 30? Its doable if he stays fit and we keep this form up.
