Boro' Debut: vs Tamworth (H), 08/08/2009
Charlie Griffin arrived at Stevenage Borough with mighty big shoes to fill in the summer of 2009 following the departure of goalscorer extraordinaire, Steve Morison. However, it just so happens that Griffin himself comes with a pedigree for scoring goals judging on his performance during the 2008/9 campaign. Despite being part of a struggling Salisbury City side, he notched more than 20 league goals over the course of the season and could plug a gap that would otherwise be desperate to fill.
With that in mind, expectations were high that Griffin would make an electric start to his career by racking up the goals in the early stages of the season. Plenty of service was available to him, while the other striking options complemented his instinctive style of play. It was encouraging that a man who can score freely at the wrong end of the table had arrived at a team with greater resources and greater aspirations, and delivered a healthy return in a 2009/10 season that didn't always allow him to play as regularly as he may have wished.
Stats include expunged Chester City fixtures in 2009/10.
