Leighton McGivern is now playing for Waterloo Dock in the Liverpool County Combination. To date (23 Sept) he has scored 15 goals in just 8 games.
 
You could give him his Sunday name, Leighton Terence McGivern-Henshaw, like they do on Wikipedia.:D
 
least he got a club! think he will go higher than that though good luck thought he were a good player jst never got a chance
 
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
 
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.

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.
 
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.

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

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

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.
