You could give him his Sunday name, Leighton Terence McGivern-Henshaw, like they do on Wikipedia.:D

Re: Leighton McGivern

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

Let's all give our thanks for the fact you aren't the manager.:rolleyes:

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

good player but did not get a shot good look
:dummy2:

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

well how come he has scored 15 in 8 games either he is playing in the blind league or that he can get a shot/s on target

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

i once got 8 in 3 games many moons ago n i was really crap.:rolleyes:

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

Isn't the Liverpool Combination about 5 levels lower than football league :confused:

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

Googling shows quite a few match reports where Leighton's scored. Try here: "Waterloo Dock" "Liverpool County Combination" mcgivern - Google Search.

One of the posts shows that he was also a top scorer for Waterloo Dock in 2005 before his move into league football.

Posted via Mobile Device He was a good player like said wasn't given the chance he needed shame he didn't get even a conference club which is a shame as he has the talent.

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

so what yer saying is nobody,even conference clubs gave him a chance, cos he's good enough?:confused: don't take up scouting.:D

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

He's probably a good player at the level that he is playing. Rocky would be a good player if he was playing at that level. Doesn't mean to say that he is a good player at football league level. It just shows how good he is when he can only get a game for Waterloo Duck in the Liverpool Combination.

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

I remember the great goal he scored against macclesfield and then got his leg broke,he never got a chance after he recovered.I for one wish him well,hope he goe's on to better things.

Leighton McGivern made 22 appearances for Stanley (5 starts and 17 substitute) and he scored 2 goals.

Leighton McGivern made 30 appearances for Rochdale (2 starts and 28 substitute) and he scored 1 goal.

Not bad for a striker in league football is it? 52 appearances (7 starts and 45 substitute) scoring 3 goals. That is how good he is. I think he has found his level - Liverpool Combination not Football League.

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

And Coleman thought that form was good enough to sign him for Stanley as a much needed striker?:confused:

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

You're overlooking something Bagpuss. Where was he born? No you're wrong, it wasn't Manchester.:rolleyes:

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

I was being sarcastic as I'm one of those who thought Leighton wasn't given a chance to prove himself but it does seem now that he has found a level of football where he should attract some interest so maybe another club might take a gamble on him.

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

well I liked him and he brought some comradeship to the club aswell

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

i like you red, but yer no centre forward.:D

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

come on spill the beans, how could you possibly know that??? :rolleyes:

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

He was a fans' favourite because he was quick and put a lot of effort into his game. This blinds the fact that he scored once in a blue moon. The stats don't lie. I agree that he has found his level. At best he's a Conference North player.

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

But to be fair (and why not), as I recall most of his appearances for Stanley were only for the last 10 or 15 mins in games that were already lost ....

Re: Leighton McGivern
 

He was never fit enough. When he was an Everton trainee he was super fit. He never got back to his best shape.
