Conor Sammon

Recommended Posts

I don't get the pessimism I've seen on Facebook about this. Steven Davies has scored a goal for every 5.5 appearances, Conor Sammon has scored in every 5.3 appearances. One wanted to be here, one didn't. Seems a fair enough trade.

Nice to see you back ROK, the voice of reason. 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

facebook is full of the worlds worst people - if you could bomb a website then it would be that website, then maybe.. LTLF - but god damn it... **** facebook!

Bananas ain't the truth. People who post on DCFC's posts are patricularly some of the worst. Well actually, I think they may just be the usual scum who float up to the surface when you're not winning every game by 4-0.

I had to delete the page off my account, some of the people on their are completely clueless, most dont actually watch the team they just comment on the results which some of the time do not reflect the game.

Myself im pretty happy with the transfer dealings this summer, i actually think we have a pretty strong squad weve got more than just a decent first 11 for the first time in a long time weve got good options on the bench. Good times ahead i feel.

So, I've just quickly thrown together a list of players who've played in the Championship and SPL and plotted their goals for game in the SPL against their goals per game in the Championship. The result is the strikers who have played in both score roughly 0.648 times their SPL scoring rate in the Championship. Below is that plot which used 15 players all of whom have made the top 10 scorers in the SPL:

There is an obvious chance of selection bias here as only players who had good records in Scotland were used. The red dotted line represents a 1:1 ratio between the two league and the green dotted line represents a 2:1 ratio (with SPL Goals: Championship goals).

Conor Sammon's best season in the SPL saw him score 15 in 23 games, whilst he scored 17 in 65 overall. If we take this as the upper and lower bounds of his scoring rate and use our SPL conversion then in a season where he manages to play 40 times we would expect him to score somewhere between 7 and 17 goals. That would represent a good return, especially if he does offer that hard working forward aspect up front. Let's see how he gets on here.

whaaaa? "ive errr ............just thrown something together"

We still have a few irons in the fire as well. Freeman sounds like a cert, and then Clough's talking of possibly one more striker and an experienced midfielder.

I'd be very happy with that.
