Scored 15 goals in a season played out of position?

And hasn’t done it anywhere else since

I almost laughed when I heard Robinson say that they were looking to buy players in January, what with the HMRC issue still hanging around like a smelly fart..

Having said that, bringing in Jordan Graham, Kieran Agard and Devante Cole would mean a fantastic January. We can still dream.. ?

Nope, but would have liked him to have stayed in the squad last season or at least been recalled from that loan in Jan. Prime example of a confidence player.

Got 15 last season for Mansfield and 18 season before for us. Played in the right role he's a goal scorer

But do you think he could of cut it with us? He’s not better than we have already.

18 for us? As you say 15 for Mansfield but why didn’t they take up the option?

He started 31 games. He came off the bench 23 times. He scored 19 goals (15 goals scored when he started, 4 goals when he was introduced from the bench). It's all black and white mate.

Not according to wiki but I think that’s 6 league goals, whennwe bought him I watched a video of him playing for Dundee and thought wow here we go but tbh was very disappointed. There was one goal that I enjoyed against Rotherham when Johnson did what he was brought in to do playing on the wing going past the Rotherham players and delivering a great cross for Hemmings to tap in and it was almost repeated a short while later.

Which is Hemmings game, which didn't happen that season. I remember us playing under Clotet with balls coming in left and right with Obika and Thomas nowhere near them. In a scrappy game where you can get lucky down the left or right, having Hemmings in there would be a good start for finding a goal.

Having said that, Mackie is more than capable at being in those positions now he's fit and his overall game is so much better. Wouldn't mind him extending that pay to play contract or even just giving him a permanent until Summer 2020.

Obika or Hemmings?
Smith or Hemmings?

Smith or Hemmings?

I thought that KR said Hemmings didn't want to stay and wanted to move back to the Midlands?
If that us the case then he wasn't an alternative to Obika.
I am with Bazzer on this. I had high hopes that he would be an excellent striker for us. He scored a load of cup goals but not an awful lot of league goals. He didn't hold the ball up well.
He has hardly set the world alight in League 2 ever since.

 

[bazzer9461]

Exactly he’s not better nor are they any better, the best we can hope for now is Mackie, Whyte and Henry with the rest chipping in.
