Next records for Copps

[Chris Black come back]

I think that for us he is on a total of 545 league appearances consisting of 486 starts and 59 substitute appearances.

He cannot now this season pass 500 league starts but with a full season next year he can expect to pass 500 league starts and with a good wind 600 league appearances if we make play offs this season perhaps.

He is also on 580 total league starts and 79 substitute appearances for all clubs, so he is now on 659 league appearances. Again with decent wind he could make 700 league appearances next season.

Can’t see him passing 600 league appearances next season - if we don’t make the play offs that would mean he would have to play in every single game next year. Even if we made the play off final (assuming those games count?) then he could only miss 3. Never mind good winds, he’d need the full force of every god ever imagined behind him to manage that.

Still to even be speaking of these numbers is remarkable. Will be very badly missed when he does eventually hang up his boots.

One factor that we all hope is that if we make the league one playoffs this season, we won't need to next season.

We could make the Championship playoffs next season of course!!!

CBCB - I don't think Playoffs count as League Appearances. By the way the 545 does not include the three 2007-08 playoff matches.

But great stats and targets for Copps 

[Chris Black come back]

He is at 737 in total but some of these are in conference for Exeter City. He might just make 800 in all competitions by end of next season.
