Strikers names that still send a shiver down the spine

Maybe because we've been in so many leagues over so many seasons, there aren't as many of these as there used to be. However, in this league, any players names that leave you concerned. Must confess I didn't even know Jordan Rhodes was still playing until he came on on Sunday but I heard a few around me utter those immortal words 'well he's bound to score'. Anyone else with that reputation still against us?

Steve Claridge

Billy Bastard Sharp.

Evo had an agenda with him !

 

[SeasideTerrier]

Kevin Phillips any team playing against dreaded him and fans always panicked when he came off the subs bench. One of our own for a while but best not mention that.

His goal at Brighton away is still one of my fave goals of the 'new' era

 

[bfc1993]

Nardiello another one I felt always scored against us then did nothing for us

 

[Bigjoel]

Yakubu... that 90thmin winner in fa cup against us.. was the longest trip home..

 

[Ockers]

Luis Boa Morte .... for obvious reasons

 

[Thatseasider]

Luis Boa Morte .... for obvious reasons

Did he ever play against us? I don’t remember that.

 

[mad-link]

Bob Taylor for Bristol City
Paul Barnes
Philiskirk & Reeves

 

[Brett&Murphs.]

Ricardo Vaz Te

That stung that one. Not so much in hindsight.

 

[LA1 Seasider]

I’m gonna go ahead and pre-empt the inclusion of this guy in about 10/15 years and just assume he’ll score against pretty much every team he ever plays against (including ourselves) - Erling Haaland. The thought of seeing him playing against us sends a shiver down my spine but I hope it happens nonetheless.

 

[Brett&Murphs.]

Could be wrong but remember Bobby Zamora scoring a few against us.

 

[Allmodcons]

Jimmy Greaves and Bob Latchford.

 

[Cuthbert]

Billy Bastard Sharp.

He always did well against us for Scunny and others. Respect him as well.

 

[IlProfessore]

Jimmy Greaves and Bob Latchford.

Yes Jimmy Greaves whether playing for Chelsea or Tottenham Hotspurs.

 

[BlackpoolWolf]

Steve Bull and Andy Mutch

barnes always springs to mind - york, burnley and bury.

stuart rimmer always seemed to notch too in the 80s and early 90s - chester and walsall.

 

[stan007]

Barlow, Muir, Beckett.... those and a fair few other lower league strikers seemed to ALWAYS score about us

a guy called Lee ?? Bolton?? more of a winger maybe but always seemd to run rings around us too

 

[stan007]

Barnes .. Rimmer - bloody hell bringing back some bad memories this thread hahaha

 

[TKL_Seasider]

The way Leicester are going we may have to contend with Paul Barnes’ lad Harvey next season. Shiver at that!

I think you mean David Lee. He was great playing against us. We had him on loan towards the end of his career and he was knackered.

Ricardo Vaz Te

that's peter barnes' lad i think.

 

[TarletonTangerine]

Iain Hulme always used to score against us for Tranmere. Had a successful stink at the Knobbers too

Stink?

 

[FessParker]

Nope , Harvey is Paul Barnes ' son.

 

[Ockers]

Did he ever play against us? I don’t remember that.

You're right. I'm such an idiot

I meant Ricardo Vaz Te

 

[TarletonTangerine]

Stink?

Auto correct at its finest...9 times out of 10 when it comes to PNE stink works better.

 

[eatmygoal]

Nope , Harvey is Paul Barnes ' son.

yep, fair enough.

 

[look.its.luke]

Bob Crowe.

Oh...I see what you mean now.

Underrated

 

[TKL_Seasider]

No. If he was Peter Barnes’ lad he’d be about 57! From Wiki: Barnes was born in Burnley, Lancashire,[5] and brought up in Countesthorpe, Leicestershire.[6]He is the son of former professional footballer Paul Barnes

that's peter barnes' lad i think.
