Even naughtier to omit the number of games he's played over that time when compared to others  How many players (who we’ve had available to pick from in that timeframe) would have scored more goals in as many games? Asking for a friend  We need Marvo as not sure if pens don’t count, or only count as half a goal. |

I don't think Eppiah (not Appiah) was more productive in 10 minutes than Sam was in 75, if why was most of the west stand on it's feet applauding him when he was subbed? They were applauding the decision to take him off |

he might need to up his game and run around even more.
That would have been like asking Usain Bolt to run a bit faster |

New two year contract signed...if he carries on the way he has been, he'll end up 4th overall appearance maker behind Fowler, Sampson and Gleasure.

Sam Hoskins signs new two and a half year contract.
Good news, hopefully Horsfall, Roberts and McWilliams to follow.

He signed in 2015 when Buckinghams walked off site, he's signed a new contract until 2024 which is when the leasehold break clause is. Coincidence?!  Hopefully the first of a few extensions / new contracts |

One of the best abilities is availability and that is one thing Sam always is. Outside of his cruciate injury when we were managed by Justin Edinburgh in L1 he has barely missed any time. At L2 he is an effective enough player, that can be utilised in a multitude of positions. Is he good enough to be a starter at a top half L1 side? In mine and most others opinions that is a no. But his attitude and effort cannot be denied.
Look at the additions we have made in January, the majority are already not available for multiple games in a row. I think he has been maligned because in recent years he has been seemingly un-droppable. As a winger he has his limitations, he dosnt really have the trickery to beat men, more so just relies on his pace.
But he has been an excellent servant for the club. Do we need utility players in L1? Yes. Is he very effective in L2? Yes. I know our strikers have not pulled up trees this season but he has clearly outscored all of them combined, so hes doing something right!
It could also be argued this season has been his best ever, therefore he is still improving. I think if we want to solidify ourselves in L1 he should not be a regular starter. But regular off the bench / occasional starts I have no problem with whatsoever.
How many players have been part of 3 promotions with us?!
Roberts, Koiki etc next please.

Well said lordjord.
Arise Sir Sam.
Also, Samuel Tobias Hoskins - could be straight out of a Dickens or Trollope novel.

I am really pleased the club have secured Sam's services for another two years. I know he polarises opinion at times but I for one would rather have him in our team than playing for the opposition against us. He always seems to be admired by commentators during our brief appearances on TV and by opposing fans when you read their forums.
Well done Sam and thanks for choosing us.

I am also pleased Sam has signed an extended contract but there are 2 things I would like to see him improve.
1. His dead ball corner kick delivery is not as consistently as good as Pinnock's.
2. His disciplinary record, he picks up far too many avoidable yellow cards including another last night.

Agree with that. Our disciplinary record overall isn't great - 17th worst in L2 to date. https://fbref.com/en/squads/986a26c1/Northampton-Town-Stats |

Congratulations Sam, hope your new baby boy let you have some sleep last night. Maybe we will be seeing the Hoskins name on a Cobblers team sheet in future years.
