Naismith
Mbokani
Bamford
Grabban
Lafferty
Jerome
Van Wolfswinkel
Hooper
Becchio
Elmander

How many would you see were successes? Jerome and Grabban at a push. Makes for pretty grim reading

    - Yes, I was thinking that too (NCFC) - mr carra, Aug 31, 14:48:05
      - I even have my doubts about Flecky as a goal scorer. Great timing and great character but (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Aug 31, 14:51:43
        
        our third highest top-flight scorer (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Aug 31, 14:59:14
        
        Pretty sure Bowen finished as top scorer one season when Rosario and Fleck played up front (n/m) (NCFC) - Adster, Aug 31, 14:58:25
        
        Wasn't he a pen taker though, and a good one at that? (n/m) (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Aug 31, 15:00:42
        
        nope, no pens. (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Aug 31, 15:09:36
        
        Mark Bowen definitely took pens.I remember him missing at elland road and Anfield. (n/m) (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Aug 31, 15:13:55
        
        his misses were 92/3 (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Aug 31, 15:18:51
        
        Fair fo's wasn't really clear to me what he meant. (n/m) (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Aug 31, 15:21:13
        
        Fun Fact KLAXON (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Aug 31, 15:26:51
        
        Just like Daryl Sutch (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Aug 31, 15:30:05
        
        them shoot-out ones don't count (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Aug 31, 15:35:33
        
        Not sure I remember him ever taking a penalty? (NCFC) - mr carra, Aug 31, 15:02:50
        
        Ian Crook used to play sublime balls into the box for him quite regularly (NCFC) - Adster, Aug 31, 15:10:16
        
        maybe joint I thought? (NCFC) - mr carra, Aug 31, 15:00:09
        
        Could have been (n/m) (NCFC) - Adster, Aug 31, 15:01:37
        
        Indeed (NCFC) - mr carra, Aug 31, 14:56:37
        
        Like Mark hughes- a scorer of great goals rather than a great goal scorer. (n/m) (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Aug 31, 15:04:24
        
        or Gossy (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Aug 31, 15:06:48
