Who will be our top scorer this season?

[Box of Frogs]

As it stands:

CMS on 11

Ulloa, Barnes and Spanish Dave all on 9

Buckley and Orlandi on 7

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Obviously CMS is out for the rest of the season.

Ulloa is currently scoring for fun

Barnes is back after a seven match lay off and on Saturday's evidence, has not forgotten where the goal is

Dave is our regular penalty taker and arguably the calmest finisher in the team

Buckley and Orlandi both hitting goalscoring form too

 

[Sussax]

CMS 11
Barnes 11
Lopez 10
Ulloa 10

 

[Stat Brother]

Anyone other than Ulloa and we are promoted, (assuming the play-offs count).

Cos he's definitely going to get the 3 needed, if someone else does as well those 6 goals will do nicely.

 

[SeagullSongs]

Barnes 12
CMS 11
Lopez 10
Ulloa 10
Orlandi 8
Buckley 7

 

[OSRGull]

Barnes 17 for obvious reasons

But either Barnes or Lopez.

Barnes for me, think he will make up for the "accidental trip" on the ref by bagging a few others.

Wouldnt also say Ulloa is scoring for fun recently - last couple of games anyway - but a rest will do him good.

Could be a DH.

OK maybe not the last couple of games, but you have to say Ulloa's record since he signed is pretty damn good!

Barnes did look like a man on a mission on Saturday. Lets hope he can keep his emotions under control for the next few games.

Am I right in thinking Barnes needs three more to reach his half century for the Albion?

Two things stand out from those stats - firstly how clinical Spanish Dave has been. Remember the first few months of the season(?) - some NSC'ers would have paid his air fare back to Spain. He has really come into his own, a classy finisher and a general all-round fantastic player.

Secondly, Ulloa has really been a revelation - I know CMS has been injured and Barnes suspended, but it says a lot that a player has signed in January, not played until February and is still in line to be our top scorer.

 

[BensGrandad]

I have gone for Ulloa because I think that having had a rest he will be given more opportunity than others in the run in. Despite what many say I think that barring the injury CMS would have been up there in contention but that is something we will never know or perhaps we will next season.

 

[Bakero]

No doom merchants suggesting CMS so far.

Edit: Checked the poll and stand corrected.

 

[Box of Frogs]

What is the highest number of players we have had with ten or more goals in one season?

Could this season be the highest?

Well there's only ONE so far.

Two years ago Murray, Barnes and Wood all did.

A few years before that I THINK we had a season where FIVE did. Cox, Robinson, Hammond...

Ulloa

Despite Barnes performance at the weekend i only really see him getting game time from the bench.

12 - Spanish Dave for me. He's in the right place at the right time a lot, scores pens and is ruthelessly clinical most of the time.
11 - CMS & Ulloa. Obviously CMS won't score any more this season but Ulloa will have had 2 weeks rest and will definately score twice between now and the end of the season
10 - Barnes. May get more but his inclusion on Saturday will be the exception rather than the rule. Ulloa will start most and Barnes may only get 20 mins per game until the end unless we've already secured 4th by the time we play Wolves, then he may play to rest Ulloa again.

 

[Twizzle]

Blimey - so many seem to think we will have lads scoring 2each in 2, and bagging several in merely 2 matches!
Personally I don't think we'll run roughshod over Leeds or Wolves, and a 6-1 v Blackpool isn't precedent for continual thrashings!
We may fail to score in one of these fixtures, so 4 points and I'd be well happy.
That would probably see us finish above the scum as well - they would need 2 wins and a draw at least, to top us.

You do realise that we might have FIVE games left?

 

[Seagulltonian]

Barnes and Ulloa, banging in the goals for fun, both to end up joint-top scorers on 15 each
