Snodland looks like it sounds. Most of us round here avoid it if we can.

You ought to be able to get into one of the Portman Rd surface car parks, just make sure you get there early enough to find an alternative if there's no space.

Conor Chaplin closes in on his 50 Town goals
at 15:25 10 Dec 2023

Chappers is joint 25th, with Mich D'Avray and Tommy Miller.

To get into the all-time Town top 10 goalscorers, he needs another 25 in all competitions, to be equal with Jason Dozzell.

Those he needs to overtake are:

Kevin Wilson, 49 goals
Jimmy Leadbetter, 49
John Elsworthy, 52
Colin Viljoen, 54
Darren Bent, 55
James Scowcroft, 55
Bryan Hamilton, 56
Simon Milton, 56
Pablo Counago, 61
David Johnson, 62
Chris Kiwomya, 64
Gerry Baker, 66
Daryl Murphy 67
and Frank Brogan, 69

Using strike rate an alternative measure, Chappers is in 5th place at 2.5 games per goal a quite remarkable figure, given that the 4 above him are all out-and-out strikers (Ray Crawford, 227 goals, 1.56 games per goal; Ted Phillips 179 goals, 1.64 games per goal; Tom Garneys 143 goals, 1.9 games per goal and Gerry Baker 66 goals, 2.29 games per goal).

The correct English translation means Islands of the Dogs, not a reference to horrible little yellow birds. You may go on holiday with a clear conscience.

Get your MP involved, There's nothing like a complaint letter on House of Commons notepaper to concentrate the minds of civil servants. I should know, I worked on a branch (not as a taxman) of the Revenue many years ago.

Town Record Goalscorers
at 12:08 11 Sep 2023

Post 2000 top ten goalscorers are:

67 - Daryl Murphy
61 - Pablo Counago
55 - Darren Bent
48 - Tommy Miller
45 - David McGoldrick
42 - Conor Chaplin
37 - Marcus Stewart
34 - Alan Lee
34 - Freddie Sears
32= - Shefki Kuqi
32= - Jonathan Walters

Another season like the last for Conor Chaplin will see him top of this list. Here's hoping!

The list doesn't include those who scored most of their goals pre-2000, such as David Johnson (62 goals), Matt Holland (45) and Richard Naylor (40).

I've no doubt that Murph would have been comfortably in the top 10 if McCarthy had picked him to play in cup games. We never got past the third round of the FA Cup and just twice beyond the first round of the League Cup in McCarthy's 5 years at Town, albeit Murph left 2 years before McCarthy.

Billy Reed was the first Town player to be capped for his country, playing for Wales in 1954 against Yugoslavia and then just once more. In the 67 years since then, 9 other Town players, Cyril Lea, Mick Hill, Geraint Williams, Gavin Williams, Lewis Price, Wes Burns and Nathan Broadhead, plus 2 loanees, Tom Lawrence and Jonathan Williams, have played for Wales.

Before tonight, the highest number of caps awarded to any of them, as Town players, is 4 each for Wes Burns and Nathan Broadhead.

Broadhead has overtaken them all tonight, with his 5th cap and (I think) his first start, all in not much more than 6 months, since his substitute appearance (and debut goal) against Croatia on 25th March this year.

Stop Press: Wes gets his 5th cap as well!

Congrats to them both.
