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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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