But as we presumably signed [spoiler alert] Conroy instead, I'd say it worked out well for us.

Four goals in two years? Even Ian Helliwell had a better record than that.

Pickering had been a good player but we signed him when he was completely knackered with injuries. Those four games for us were his last and he was only 29.
