Did anyone else have to have a double take that didn't say Jonathan Aloisi or am i losing my sight?
They weren't at the club at the same time.John Aloisi was a good player and very underrated, I think he was just unfortunate to be at Coventry City the same time as Dion Dublin and was therefore often left on the bench.

Huckerby, Keane, Roussell, Hartson all there at some point during his time with us. Always thought we should of kept him when we got relegated.As soon as I posted that I suddenly started thinking I had probably got my seasons wrong, was it John Hartson then? I seem to remember Aloisi was used more of a squad player then a regular starter, but always looked like he had potential. Who was getting picked ahead of him?

Scored 20+ (I think) in a season for Pompey and should’ve been retained in order to fire us back to the prem. Absolutely no need to sign Lee Hughes.Again I may have got my facts wrong, but didn't he also score a shed load of goals at Portsmouth the year before we signed him and also looked good playing for Australia in the World Cup? A old school centre-forward who liked an aerial duel with defenders. Ironically we could do with a player like that now.

I saw him play a few times for Pompey before signing for us and was well pleased when we got him. Had a decent career. Including playing in serie A if memory serves me correctly.
He was no eion Jess. What a waste of £2m
Whelan, Huckerby, Roussel, Keane. He had a few injuries whilst here as well tbfAs soon as I posted that I suddenly started thinking I had probably got my seasons wrong, was it John Hartson then?

We signed him in December 1998 and he had scored 17 by that point of the seasonScored 20+ (I think) in a season for Pompey and should’ve been retained in order to fire us back to the prem. Absolutely no need to sign Lee Hughes.

John Aloisi left ccfc for none football reasons, which I’m not putting on here. Use your imagination.
I predicted my assertion would be wrong. However, 26 goals in 60 games (according to Wikipedia) is not a bad strike rate for Pompey.We signed him in December 1998 and he had scored 17 by that point of the season
This thread did not go the way you wanted it to.Watching Ireland v Czech Rep u19 UEFA championship QF.
Young player Afolabi just scored a very good goal. Looks quicker than Thomas and is looking for a club. He's worth a punt from what I've seen and could pick him for nothing

Rumour has it we’re not going to re-sign John Aloisi for footballing reasons ie he’s quite old for professional football now.Robins was going to sign him until Aloisi got mentioned.

Who’s he?Yes, Afolabi could be worth a punt.
Several punts probably but the Irish are now in the eurozoneYes, Afolabi could be worth a punt.
We have many punts here in Oxford!Several punts probably but the Irish are now in the eurozone
So 17 goals in half a season in the second tier of English football. In pro-rata terms that would make him a 30 goal a season striker.
