[Archived] More Rovers Trivia


Recommended Posts

Posted

Since WWII,Rovers have had 10 defenders who score 10 or more goals in their careers(cup and league play).See if you can name them.(Some long forgotten names on this list)

No clues yet.If you are stumped I'll offer some.

I can only think of Colin Hendry in recent times. Looked up a few others who I thought might have had ten goals or more but to no avail.

John Waddington was a healthy goalscorer from Centre back.

Derek Fazackerley also chipped in.

Graham Oates was another defender who scored 10 goals in blue and white.

Colin Hendry.

Chris Price.

Kevin Hird.

Glenn Keeley.

Posted
Henning Berg

Craig Short used to score quite a few

Berg & Short only scored seven and four times for Rovers, respectively.

Posted

Chris Samba has quite a good record 6 in around 70 something games, and even though he only scored 3 Markus Babbel was also dangerous considering he scored them in 25 or so, games.

Stephen Warnock looks like he's soon on his way to double figures aswell. I think you should consider players dont make 300+ appearances for Rovers (or most clubs for that matter) anymore !

He scored two of them VS Boro' if I remember rightly in one game. Boxing day it was, scored a last minute equaliser.

Bill Eckersley must have scored a lot more than 10 because he used to take all the penalty kicks.

Matt Woods? Probably close on ten if we include own goals.

Posted

I think Bob Crompton must be one of them. He played well over 500 games so a good chance of hitting double figures.

Crompton did well playing on after WWII.......

Been going since 84 and I can think of

Faz (took pens)

Moran

Hendry

maybe Mail (also took pens), not sure about Keeley. Certainly wouldn't class Atkins as a defender either.

I would assume long standing players such as Clayton would have got 10+ but then pure guesswork from me there.

Our poor quality set pieces clearly being highlighted over the past 10 - 15 years.
