Err when has he started matches? His goals to minutes on the pitch ratio must be streets ahead of anyone else in the squad. For the record, Ellis: 574 minutes, 4 goals - a goal every 143.5 minutes, but one was a penalty, which I know some don't count, so that would make it a goal from open play every 191 minutes. Taylor: 2414 minutes, 10 goals - a goal every 241 minutes, but take away the four penalties and it's one from open play every 402 minutes. Blissett: 789 minutes, 4 goals - a goal every 197 minutes BUT, you have to give Matty some serious credit as since he lost his place in the side for the Kidderminster match his record is 981, minutes, 7 goals - a goal every 140 minutes. Two of these were pens, so that makes it one from open play every 196 minutes. So if you take out Taylor's nightmare start to his Rovers career, all three strikers have an almost identical record of goals per minute open play. Why do goals against Dorchester not count?

Do I really need to answer that? All the stats are league games only, which I think is only fair.

Also, it's worth noting that Ellis has scored 8 league goals for the Gas. All of them have been as substitute apart from the two he scored in one game against Rochdale two seasons back that probably earned him his 3-year deal. I'm not holding that against him, by the way. So, 21 league starts for the Gas, and in 20 of those games he couldn't find the net. Maybe Clarke has it right at the moment using him as an impact sub? That's not to say he can't push on and become a regular starter in the future.

I disagree. Mildenhall is contributing by pulling his own player by the shirt towards him. Not sure what that means. Mildy's allowed to pull his own player, but the Dart isn't allowed to back in. No - Mildenhall isn't allowed to pull his own player to gain an advantage.

But what manager would ignore the team's strongest players to get promotion? Every team 'rebuilds' during the summer. Get promotion then sort out who will be here next season.

So to get this straight if Marty Taylor has a bad game & doesn't score we ignore that in his minutes to goal ratio but tough s**t Ellis & Nathan every minute good or bad counts? I take it the Conference will be letting us replay those games we didn't win at the start of the season?

If we get promoted then he may well Keep Mildenhall as we could cope with his pay demands,but as it stands these two are probably 2 of the highest paid players on the payrol

I take it the Conference will be letting us replay those games we didn't win at the start of the season? No. I put down their stats as clear as day in my post and simply made an observation that Taylor's recent form is much improved. I don't really see the issue in that?
