Moore Targeting Ten Goals - Ipswich Town News
On-loan midfielder Sammy Moore says he is targeting at least 10 goals this season after opening his Brentford account in Saturday's 2-0 victory at Chester City.
Moore, who is with Terry Butcher's Bees until January, says he had been getting some ribbing about his failure to score before now: "The lads have been giving me a bit of stick about when I would get my first goal, so it was nice to get it.
"I have set a target to get into double figures, which would be nice for a midfielder.
"We knew it would be tough coming away from home and with Chester fourth in the league. They are a good side.
"We rode our luck at times and they could have been 3-0 up in the first half.
"We knew we had to come out and be better in the second half and once we got the first goal we knew we could get the second - and it came."
Moore, an FA Youth Cup winner with the Blues, says he is happy at Griffin Park: "I have really enjoyed it from day one at Brentford.
"All the management and staff have been first class. I have enjoyed playing every Saturday and I hope it continues."
The former Chelsea and Charlton academy player signed a new one-year deal with the Blues in the summer.
