Yes indeed,Gilfillan ,though relatively slight of build,was a very able striker.Regarding the above especially the comment about Ray Smith in connection with goals scored in Div.3(Lge 1 now).
Ray Smith played in 111 matches & scored 36 goals between 1962-66(average 3.08); Mike Beesley played in 79 matches & scored 35 goal between 1962-65(average 2.257); Eddie Firmani played in 36 matches & scored 16 goals(average 2.25) and finally Bobby Gilfillan played in 65 matches and scored 33 goals(average 1.96). So maybe Bobby Gilfillan should be given a little bit more credit for his goals/games record. I was lucky enough to have seen Eddie Firmani play for us many times both in Division 3 & 4 and not only was he a class player, but he was also a top top bloke to go with it.
Re. Your percentages,remember Beesley played a lot,and Firmani quite a few games in defence.
