    Anyone know the breakdown of his goals , does he take penalties ?
    I know he scored a few early on for chesterfield
    I don't think a single goal of the 9 were a pen. Clarke won a penalty against us earlier in the season and the bald #10 ended up taking it, and scoring.

    Indeed. But even better luck to Leon Clarke, eh?

    If it means we don't see Hayes lumbering about any more then I'm all for it

    18 month deal? Really surprised we gave him a deal that long.

    There goes the theory that we can just send him back if he causes trouble. Powell must be very confident about him and in Powell I trust...

    Think he may start on Monday. BWP looks like he's carrying an injury to me.

    If BWP doesn't start and is not injured then I'm a Dutchman.

    Liked the YouTube clip above. Some very nice touches there and a good mix of finishes. Shows a bit of quality.



    Scored goals with both feet as well.

    Interesting. I'm not sure if this is true, but I heard a rumour that some other players who used to play for us have scored when they've gone on to play for other clubs later in their careers.

    Oh FFS! So we can't mention that a former player who's just moved on from us having had a bit of a mare in recent months has made a good start at his new club?

    And Leon Clarke didn't score for us today.

    Useless!

    POWELL OUT!!

    Source?

    It's getting a bit silly with all these rumours. If you've heard something then tell us where or keep it to yourself.

    Benson ? If you're trying to make a comparison with Clarke it's hardly fair given Benson starts for Swindon and Clarke is a squdie for us. Like comparing apples and pears. Benson has gone and that's good because CP didn't think he was good enough. Move on ffs.

    Jeez chill out no one is comparing them, maybe people are happy for Benson, I'm glad to see him doing well.

    I'm happy for benson but the post by Miserabloldgit was not written just to say well done Benno. IMHO it was a bit of a snipe and given CP didn't rate Benson that's good enough for me.

    It is Benno's level i am glad he has scored and played regular, but if like di canio says they will win the league, he better get used to the bench again

    maybe people dont agree that benson wasnt good enough shooters, their allowed their opinion. Benson was a good player with a great attitude, Clarke has issues over his, when the going got tough I no which player I would have around. Having said that, I am just pleased for Benno, hope it works out well for him cos he deserves to prove he can score goals
