 The T-Ender: Andy Hoskins profile
Hosky's record is all the more remarkable as his 2003/4 tally is more than the total he grabbed in all of his previous three campaigns at Meadow Park and beats his previous personal best of 33 goals scored as a brash 18 year-old playing local football for Brockworth.
The prolific quantity and consistency of his goals may be new but Hoskins is a popular player who richly deserves the plaudits he's received this season.
He had seemed content to drift into local football with Brockworth, but Burns saw him as a wasted talent and persuaded him back to Gloucester City, a decision neither can have regretted.
