Thread: Is Moore the best forward in the league?

    Re: Is Moore the best forward in the league?

    Great first goal today, kind of goal not really associated with a target man. I really think he's been great, not sure why he got the odd knocker on here when he signed.

    He’s been a hero & he’s knackered, it’s been a one man show up front. We desperately need a alternative for him next season. He won’t get much of a break over the summer.

    .....
    Bothroyd's two extra goals that season came in the League Cup against League 2 Burton (a game we won 4-1) and League 1 Peterborough (a game we lost 2-1).

    McCormack scored 23 in total with one extra goal in League Cup against League 1 Milton Keynes (a game we won 2-1) and second extra in FA Cup against Championship Reading.

    Chopra didn't score any extra so was stuck on 22 for season.

    Jerome scored two extra, taking his total to 20, with first against League 1 Colchester United and second against Arsenal.

    Earnie scored 26 goals that year with 5 extra coming in League Cup against Leyton Orient and First Division, West Ham

    If he goes on to have decent performances at the Euros, I foresee Cardiff struggling to keep suitors at bay.
    I wonder what his goal tally would have been with 20000+ supporters in the ground.

    I don't think that we'd have got too many 20000 + crowds this season.

    More from Moore, more fans due to more points, more or less

    He's our first 20 goal striker in what feels like an eternity and has gotten those goals in a team with severe limitations, including barely reaching 30% possession in many games.

    Give the guy a freakin break.

    I think you have to factor in the number of creative players our strikers during the Dave Jones days had providing chances for them. I spend a lot of time these days moaning about our midfield, but I must admit that with McPhail and Whittingham, plus players like Ledley and Burke, City fans were spoilt in the late noughties and early tens.
