[Albion] Ashley Cole

[AZ Gull]

Is he the oldest player to score at the Amex?

Bruno hasn't scored at the Amex since April 2016 when he was a mere 35 years old.

Kevin Phillips would have been around 38 when he scored twice for Blackpool at the Amex in 2011.

Edit - I've checked and my rudimentary maths has Cole being 32 days older than Phillips was when he scored at the Amex. I can't think of anyone older who would have scored.

Prior to today, Emile Heskey was the oldest scorer at the Amex (scored for Bolton on February 13 2016). He was 7 days older than Kevin Phillips was when the Blackpool striker notched his brace.

However, Ashley Cole is 25 days older than Heskey was, so he now takes the accolade.

Who would be the youngest then?

I'd hazard a guess at Jake Forster Caskey who was 17 years old when he scored in the win over Southampton in January 2012.

Correct.

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Correct.

Good cause I believe he took the title of youngest scorer from a certain boggle-eyed gravity whore from up the road.

He did, although 3 players younger than Zaha (although not as young as JFC) have subsequently scored at the Amex: Sean Murray for Watford, Nathan Redmond for Birmingham and Ademola Lookman for Charlton.

Who?

Who?

The scumbag that cheated on poor Cheryl.

 

[LamieRobertson]

I thought Huddlestone did ok but must say they looked a different team when Marriott came on. Nugent was poor,

Wasn't just Marriott coming on...they changed formation too

The scumbag that cheated on poor Cheryl.

The same poor Cheryl who was convicted at Guildford of abusing a cloakroom attendant.

She was Tweedy then not Cole or any of the multitude of married names she has had since.

Still the same low life person irrespective of the name she had at the time.

Who?

one of the best English players of last two decades, gets a comical "who?"

This. Nearly phoned 606 to ask they and test of media to get their noses out of top 6 and anyone who’s played for them’s arses But what’s the point? They’ll never change. Leicester still get patronised and they won the bloody thing.

At the time of the singing he wasn't a professional footballer?

Or not, as the case maybe.

 

[Justice]

His positional play was top draw just like our Bruno.

That's a caption for a video of Cole's goal, not a headline for the match report.

(Unless something has been changed on the website?)
