Philly Cheese Steak Hughes

Just checked my own stats and here's the two guys records with Harps:

Con McLaughlin scored a total of 110 league goals with Harps in 314 games. 36 of these goals (156 games) came in the old one-tier LOI set-up, with 74 goals (158 games) coming after the formation of the First Division.

Kevin McHugh has scored a total of 124 league goals with Harps in 253 games (to date). 24 of the goals (87 games) have come in the Premier Division. He has scored exactly 100 First Division goals (166 games) to date, while he also has another five goals (8 games) in promotion/relegation games which I'm not sure if they count as league goals - they were all scored in games where Harps were the First Divison club.

These players, along with Brendan Bradley, are the only three players to have scored more than 100 LOI goals for the club.

Hughes got something like 27-28 goals for Kilkenny in his season there not 15 so I wouldnt be using wiki for my stats.

So what about Andy Myler . . . did he spend many seasons in the Premier?

He has 133 LOI goals in total, so if his Premier Division total could be subtracted from that you'd have the figure for the First Division.

We really should get some sort of group for stats nerds like us.

For the record hughes scored 3 goals for Pats in the Premier Division

Reliable LOI stats are annoyingly hard to find.

And five for us in the First.

Myler had a fair few seasons in the Premier in fairness. Rovers, Drogheda, Longford and Bray for starters (though he didn't score many for Bray). I think he was half and half First and Premier with us, but only scored 13 goals in total. Athlone and Monaghan were where most of his goals came from, and they were all in the First. I'd say he scored close on half his goals in the Premier, but that's a very rough guesstimate.

we need some sort of organisation to track all results and stats. its criminal that this simple question can't be answered with one quick online search

Yep. Hard work trying to get stats together for a project I'm doing on Pats.

On that note, if it ever helps anyone, I've line-ups as well as cumulative goalscoring and appearance stats for a bit over half of all UCD's senior games (i.e. since joining the league in 1979).

Likewise if anyone needs any pats stuff, PM me. I'm more certain on th recent stuff (obviously)

Antonio Izzi scored a load of goals for Cobh in division 1 many moons ago

That'll really attract the chicks :D It'd be like the Big Bang Theory with Dodge as Sheldon and PineappleStu as Howard.

it would be good if we could put together the lineups, goals, cards etc for every LOI game. it would be a lot of work but the lack of records is criminal

Whereas 'normal' LOI supporting is like driving a pussy wagon? :)

He didn't score many for us iirc, althought Marty the Longford Statto will probably be on to contradict that soon. :)

cheers macy!:D myler was top scorer with nine goals in the 2005 season for us , he spent half a season in 2006 but didnt score at all..

Was that nine in total or just league goals? Doesnt really matter either way just curious. I remember he scored a typical Andy Myler "proper striker's" goal against Linfield in the Setanta Cup at home and there was great expectations but he just didn't have the pace to play the role that was asked of him. I think Dave Mooney in '07 was the only time a forward of ours really clicked within Alan Mathews' system and that was down to Mooney deciding he was actually going to prove himself that year. There'd been only flashes previously for various reasons.

sorry for misleading you longfordian it was nine goals in total that season three in the fai cup, one in the setanta one in the UEFA Cup and the rest in the league which was a paltry four!

Dunno if this is any use to anyone. Only goes up to 2008:

http://www.rsssf.com/tablesi/iertops.html

In all comps in 2006, Philly scored 22 goals for DundalkFC.(maybe a club record ??)
The following (2007) season, his form took a dive and he only scored 7 times.

Still looking into this,he may have scored more times for us.
