PauloPerth Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I realise you lads have other distractions this week, but any Well fans with stats on the clubs' top premier goalscorers able to contribute here... all the best for Saturday! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desp Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) Pretty sure Scott McDonald became the leading goalscorer in the post-'75 era last season, didn't he? Something like 77 goals. @capt_oats will be the man for this. Edited May 16, 2018 by Desp 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forzapars Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Dunfermline fans seem to have heard about Nicky Clark having already agreed a pre-contract with you. Anyone heard about it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on some of his past posts on Steelmen I wondered if @crazylegsjoe might have an idea on that sort of thing? Seeing as we're getting an all new website in the coming months I'd have said an archives page with top 10 all time top scorers etc info and that sort of historic data would be a worthwhile addition for general reference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al B Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I know it's notorious for being wrong on these kind of things and often doesn't include everything, but Wikipedia has Scott McDonald and John Sutton both on 66. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a link for that? I was sure I found a wiki page ages ago that had a list of top scorers but I've never been able to find it again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah I just looked on their individual player pages, and it has their games/goals for each club underneath their photo. Again all Wikipedia so more than likely wrong, but: Esteban Casagolda - 196 Tommy Coyne - 59 Dougie Arnott - 59 David Clarkson - 49 Michael Higdon - 40 James McFadden - 37 Edited May 16, 2018 by Al B 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are and they aren't. Most media sources credit a goal to Zaine Francis-Angol against Aberdeen in 2014, that the club credit to John Sutton. It was similar to the Barry Robson/Faddy penalty for Scotland against Iceland where it's really hard to tell. The club will officially say Sutton has 67 league goals, but any kind of stats site will tell you 66. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone heard about it? I know Saints had spoken to him last month and he was rumoured to have signed a pre contract with us. Tommy has backtracked on 1 of the pre contracts that were offered, was hoping it was him tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI Top scorer in the Belgian 2nd Division these days, for a team who’re managed by Nigel Pearson and recently released former Celtic wunderkind Tony Watt-presumably cause he couldn’t get a game ahead of Casagolda.

Not for me to put two and two together, but were those shirts and footballs from the club shop really for his grandkids...? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al B Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 For interest - my post from the other thread... Missed an obvious one...can you add Louis Moult in between Higdon and McFadden? 38 Goals. Further Edit - Found the wiki list, some fairly major edits: Willie Pettigrew scored 80 goals, but that was between '72 and '79. Stevie Kirk - 63 Willie Irvine - 49 John Gahagan - 38 Bobby Graham - 37 Brian McLaughlin - 37 Jamie Murphy - 34 Lionel Ainsworth - 25 Owen Coyle - 25 There's a ton more below 25 but I'm sure that's enough. As an aside, our all-time record goalscorer is Hughie Ferguson with 284 goals in 288 games!! Jesus Christ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlipperyP Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Never been in this thread before, probably never be back.I'd like to wish all the supporters a great day out on Saturday, win or lose.I would like to wish all the players the greatest day and make history, that will live for you to the day you leave this earth, as if you win, you will leave not just here memories of the fans standing on sidelines, but memories for grandchildren that will be born in 10 & 20 years from today.
