Strikers: Ralph Allen in the thirties - 32 in 28 (I think); Killer in '76 (16 in 16 before being sold). Wide Midfield: can be anything between 10 and 20 a season. 15 is good. Centre Midfield: Anywhere between 8 and 12 a season is good for us. Bowyer was excellent (15 in '96 was it?)

10 and 20 a season?! that is very optimistic. Our strikers often don't get more than 10 - in the last 20 odd years I reckon only Bowyer, Jackson and Jase got to double figures. Maybe Graham Stuart?
I would say a decent rate for a striker would be 17 to 22 and that would be for a club right at the top end of the table .. Last season Tractor Boy Murphy was the top champ scorer with 27 .. he had an exceptional season .. Hornet Deeney and Dusty Blackburn Rhodes were next with 21 .. for a midfielder/winger ? .. somewhere around 12 to 15, but you'd need two doing that to get anywhere .. the mark of a good team is when the goals are spread around .. BUT .. no good scoring lots if the defence is as porous as a colander ..

Well it depends what sort of wide player you are...Jacko in league one got well into double figures, as did JBG last season. In past years, Johnny Summers would often score you 20 a season from the wing, as would some other stalwarts of bygone days (Hirst for instance). Stockholmaddick asked what was a good scoring rate - I gave my opinion on what is good, not what they actually do each season

Rule of thumb is generally 1 in 3 for striker and 1 in 5 for a midfielder.
I would say 1 in 2 for a quality striker.............have a look at Jimmy Greaves & Cloughie's records. Alan Shearer is probably closest in the era.
our best over the past 40 years (since I've been watching) has been Killer, Mendonca & Benty - with BWP & Andy Hunt coming close but only over a short period of time.
'Kashi joined Metz from LB Chateauroux in 2012 and scored one goal in 86 outings during his time at the club; .. so don't expect too much/too many from Ahmed
I guess depends on time on pitch as Jordan Cousins 86 games 5 goals looks a low return but as with any younger player there must be a high % of coming on as a sub for a few minutes.
