Just reading the latest thread on Glenn Murray and thought I'd see whether he has any chance of catching our record goal scorer, Tommy Cook. I was saddened to see that TC's wiki page doesn't even list his Albion exploits; entry written by a cricket fan....

Any chance someone could fix this? It's not right, is it?

He'd have absolutely romped it had it not been for the unfortunate Croydon incident.

Yes, bit myopic, isn't it (and unfortunately, no, I don't know how to fix it!)

Not a lot of data there....and it has our record singing wrong, innit.

Time someone posted a proper biog.

Incidentally Charlie Webb's entry is decent. I wonder who did that. Calling [MENTION=4470]Tim[/MENTION] Carder
