Paul Culpin was one of my favourite strikers. Knew how to score and loved a pint. His goal against Fulham in 1988 is my favourite Cobblers goal of all time. A Marco Van Basten style volley past big Jim Stannard!
I liked him aswell, and I remember that goal. My point though is he didn't really do much 'work' for the team other than score goals and these days strikers need to work to a team ethic. I'm not saying this is right but this is why Joe needs to adapt his game and clearly our recent managers don't think he has done enough to warrant a place in the team.
