Assists often recognize the player who put most of the work in Gary Linekar was a great goal poacher but it was those around him that created those goals. Assists recognize that.
RE: Assists often recognize the player who put most of the work in What about the old fashioned term "making a goal"? as in "Hayes scored a wonderful hat trick, and made another two", sorry picked the wrong player to clarify my point.
RE: Assists often recognize the player who put most of the work in It's easier to say assists and easier to use that in stats. p.s. You've not objected to the American spelling of recognise though!
RE: Assists often recognize the player who put most of the work in And the dutch spelling of Lineker, LINAKER.
RE: Assists often recognize the player who put most of the work in We used to say you "set a Goal up or made a goal for whoever " in my younger days.</p> I don't like American English creeping into our game. But it is nice to see players given credit for "setting up goals". </p> One of the ugliest examples of American English is Cleats. </p><div style="text-align: justify;"></div>
?????????????? I have cleats on my bicycle pedals-what's american about that</p> Ultralight... And So Much More!</p> The Speedplay X Series' innovative design and unrestricted float changed the shape of clipless pedals and continue to prove that user-friendliness, comfort, and improved performance are all attainable in a simple, lightweight package. The unique shape of X pedals provides knee-saving lateral rotation, without the self-centering action inherent in most pedals - your knees don't have to work against spring tension. Their compact, low-profile shape positions your foot closer to the spindle, for optimal power transmission, not to mention the unmatched cornering clearance. And their dual-sided design provides the easiest entry/exit of any clipless pedal. In fact, the X Series is so innovative that it won a Designers Choice Award from ID Magazine, the premier publication in the field of industrial design. Whether you're a pro racer or a first-time clipless pedal user, no pedal is easier to use or offers more performance than the Speedplay X Series.</p> Key features:</p><ul>[*]Easy dual-sided entry: no kicking it over, no looking down, no fumbling. [*]Half the weight of most other clipless systems: <ul>[*]X/5 Chrome-Moly pedals per pair - 220g [*]X/2 Stainless pedals per pair - 198g [*]X/1 Titanium pedals per pair - 150g [*]X <font color="#ff0000">cleats</font> per pair - 85g [/list][*]Non-centering free float minimizes the potential for knee strain. [*]Unbeatable cornering clearance: X/1 - 39 degrees; X/2 - 37 degrees; X/5 - 35 degrees. [*]Large contact area, extremely stable cleat-to-shoe connection. [*]Compatible with virtually all 3-hole and 4-hole shoe mountings. [*]Standard step-in, turn-out entry and release. [*]Built-in grease port for easy bearing lubrication. [*]True locking mechanism - engagement security is independent of spring tension. [*]<font color="#ff0000">NEW X/5 </font>features needle and cartridge bearings for improved durability and easier servicing. [*]X/5 incorporates an earlier release angle than the race-oriented X/1 and X/2. The X/5 needs only a slight heel twist to exit, so you'll have no worries about getting out when you need to. [/list] Note: X-Series pedals are not compatible with Speedplay Zero cleats nor are X-Series cleats compatible with Zero pedals.</p>

RE: Cleats That must be why the Yankees are http://www.barnsleyfc.org.uk/bbs/images/emoticons/******.gif footballers if they play with rope round their feet.</p> </p> </p>
Sorry about "recognize" I teach English over here (oooh the irony) and a lot of my spelling has altered as a result (color, theater, etc) as for the Lineker part - I was in a rush - sorry
RE: Assists often recognize the player who put most of the work in But isn't a cleat a blade rather than a stud. Anyway - I've got some baseball cleats so stick that!
