palmy_cammy Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I would love to see Lyle reach number 2 on that list before the end of his career. I think he's got it in him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's averaging better than a goal every 2 appearances. Only Jim Patterson, as well as Rutherford and Dougan can claim that, though to be fair Andy Thomson, Ian Reid, Billy Houliston and Rowan Alexander aren't far off it. McChesney's 12th position is pretty remarkable considering he was never a striker and usually a defensive player. It's testimony to a 20 year career though. Others such as Tommy McCall, Bobby Black and Jimmy Robertson were wingers rather than strikers so their totals are also pretty impressive. John O'Neill played the occasional game as a forward in his second spell but by and large he was a midfielder. He has 27 penalty kicks in his total though. Likewise Tommy Bryce was a forward in his first spell with us but a midfielder by the time of the other two. Dobbie was the designated penalty taker for a period in his first spell but doesn't have many spot kicks in his total. Lyle has been designated penalty taker for the last three years when on the pitch (since McGuffie left) so he has a few penalties in his total too. Jackie Oakes and Jackie Law would probably be much higher if World War 2 hadn't robbed them of six years (of course had they been playing regularly in that spell they may have moved on). Fair chance one of them might even have gotten as high as No 2. Edited March 28, 2017 by Skyline Drifter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reilly played in that league too and Clark scored cup goals against Rangers, Hibs, Kilmarnock, Morton & Partick Thistle in that period. Clark played about 20 odd of his appearances as a midfielder. They both have decent goal records with us. I have no idea why so many Queens fans are desperate to pretend Nicky Clark isnt a quality striker. He was outstanding when converted to a striker regardless of what level he was playing at.

I know he wasn't prolific before and spent lots of time in the midfield of a failing side, but I'd have thought he'd scored more than that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was reasonably surprised Allan was so keen to get Nicky signed up when he took over but to be fair he saw something the rest of us hadnt and changed his position immediately. It was an inspirational change though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did play a few games up front but generally only as an emergency. Played many games in midfield and ended his career as a full back so as SD says his goals total is impressive. Great servant to the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
