Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 13:31:03 Some one please explain to me like I'm a dumb ass.
What EXACTLY is the record that Parkin is after? Don't just paste what was on the Adver site because that didn't explain it properly. What EXACTLY is Peter Eastoe's record??? Reg? Anyone? Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 13:33:12 Is it just a club record for goals scored at this level?
Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: Titch on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 13:33:54 My impression is that Eastoe scored 26 goals in one season and it is that that parkin is trying to break!
Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: Titch on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 13:34:27 Of course it is just a modern day record not an all-time swindon record!
Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: Reg Smeeton on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 13:41:04 ......there is a bit of crap going on here, because they keep going on about SSP scoring 20 goals for 3 consecutive seasons, but the real currency is league goals scored and last season SSP managed 19.
The post war record for a season is jointly held by Bill Stephens in 46/47....Bob Edwards on 56/57 and Peter Eastoe in 74/75 and is 26 league goals. SSP managed 25 in his first season....and now has 21? so a chance to break the post war record. Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 13:49:23 would the play offs count as part of the season?
Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: Titch on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 13:52:31 I would imagine so as it is part of the league campaign!
Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: Reg Smeeton on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 14:05:19 No PO's don't count as part of the season.....they count as other in goalscoring charts.
PO's are a separate comp at season's end. Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: Titch on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 14:09:49 Interesting! Suppose that makes sense really! Never really realised they actually classed the play-offs as a sepearate comp altogether, just assumed it was an extension of the same comp!
Thanks for the increase in knowledge Reg! :) Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: sonicyouth on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 14:27:17 Quote from: "Reg Smeeton" No PO's don't count as part of the season.....they count as other in goalscoring charts. PO's are a separate comp at season's end. I've had this conversation with you before I believe and it seems as if some people consider it as league goals/appearances and some don't, there's no real consistency to it. For the sake of Sammy I'll pretend it does count as league gaosl. Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: janaage on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 14:30:22 I don't think Mr Richard Banyard counts them as league goals. I'm sticking with that. Pressure's on Sam.
Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: sonicyouth on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 14:40:17 He does, I looked on there earlier.

Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 15:27:43 Why have they only started mentioning the record this season then? I'm sure nothing was said about it in the previous two seasons when he obviously came close?
Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: janaage on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 15:37:07 Probably cos the Adver have nothing else to write about at the moment.
Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 15:39:59 It's just odd that it hasn't been mentioned before but now they're suddenly getting excited about it :?:
Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: janaage on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 15:46:33 It's taken them three years to get on Banyard's site and look up the stats.
Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 15:48:53 Well, it was mentioned before but it is probably just a slow news time at the moment.

Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: Reg Smeeton on Wednesday, March 23, 2005, 17:46:16 I debated with Banyard abiout PO goals not being included as league goals....and he agreed that they should be in others, but he didn't have space to do it......it was probably on thisis..
The old Rothman's now Sky Sports yearbook, generally regarded as the football Wisden always lists PO goals separately, which is good enough for me. Title: Parkin's scoring record Post by: janaage on Thursday, March 24, 2005, 09:27:21 Is it too late to switch back? :wink:
