Goal 1,500...coming soon!

Posted December 27, 20159 yr

My calculations have Inverness on a competitive total of 1,493 goals in all competitions. Just 7 away from the landmark 1,500!
The next games are against Hamilton, Ross County and then Stirling Albion - it could 'go' in that cup game...or perhaps I'm jumping-the-gun! (or, some may argue....'the shark'!)

500: Davide Xausa v Airdrie (2000/01)
1000: Grant Munro v St Mirren (2007/08)
1500: ? (2015/16)

We should have a sweep about what minute ?

:laugh: Yeah, I was thinking the same - or a 'first goal scorer' sweep - which would obviously be our goal 1500...
Heck, I hope it's not an own-goal by Stirling - that would be disappointing!
I think Tansey would be a good percentage call to get goal 1500, as he takes the penalties and the within-range free-kicks....
But it could be a Warren header or a Vigurs or Polworth wonder-goal. I'd expect Storey to be favourite with the bookies for first scorer, but it really could be anybody!

If your heading up to the match why not ask CJT for a printout for 1st scorer for the pub. 50% goes to winner and the rest to CJT as funds for the supporters bus.

Sounds more like a cheeky vodka scam to me !! :smile:

All above board, our bus that went down to Hampden made £2.75 profit after expenses. :whistle:

Only kidding.

I think we're looking at a stuffier Albion side that will sit in and try to frustrate us. The last time they were flying high at the top of the old div 2 with Allan Moore as manager who foolishly tried to play football against us.

Can't wait though, where are we meeting?

Ross Draper!!
Well done to him! He doesn't score many, but he's notched the milestone goal!
One for pub quizzes nowhere. except perhaps the Innes! :lol:

Apparently it may have been the 1499th

Well done Ross.

Good to get that milestone out of the way for the Cup replay.

I too am glad! Don't have to 'worry' about goal 2,000, for around 7 or 8 years!
The breakdown of goals:
League: 1,237
Scottish Cup: 123
League Cup: 93
Challenge Cup: 47
Europe: 0
Although, largely irrelevant, It would have been ironic if say, Dani Lopez had notched it before he left the club. But, all 3 milestone goals have been scored by players who have been significant contributors for us; Xausa (500th), Munro (1,000th) and now Draper (1,500th).
