Age Gap Between Scorers...

Postby Beyond The Pale » Thu Apr 22, 2021 11:29 am

I was thinking this morning about the age gap between Perch & Sinclair this morning after they scored against Scunny the other night.

It is around 15 years I believe & I can't remember a bigger age gap between scorers in a Stags game.

I'm probably wrong, but can anyone remember a wider age gap for scorers in a single game?

Going back a few years now with this but my first thoughts were Les Robinson or Scott Sellers. LR didn't score for us but SS got two.

In both games Sellers scored so did Liam Lawrence, one was the 6-1 hammering of Tranmere. I think Lawrence was 21 and Sellars 38 so a good 17 years difference.

Doesn’t beat it but Maynard and Knowles was a gap of 14 years last season.

Bishop and Walker vs Oldham. That must be a similar age gap. 15-17 years at a guess.
