Shrimpers wideboy best at assists in football league!

Last updated : 18 January 2012 By westfield shrimper

Hall: Rallies team-mates

Ryan Hall: Top of the assist league outside the big boys

We are used by now to seeing a Ryan Hall cross ending up in the back of the net, but it's still a surprise to see that our very own wideboy is the No.1 footy assistant in all four english divisions with 14!

The Spanish superstar David Silva of Premier League leaders Manchester City, along with League One Sheffield United's Stephen Quinn, are in fact both three behind.

In the whole of 2010/11 he was also the best, with 16!

Last season when 21-goal Barry Corr was the main beneficiary, but in his absence this campaign it's been spread around the team with super sub Bilel Mohsni and eight-goal centre-back Mark Phillips certainly having taken advantage of the Dulwich born boy's accuracy.

If Millwall are taking a look I would think he's signing-on fee has increased to another level!

Peter Whittingham of Cardiff and Mark Yeates at Watford are the best in the Championship with 10 assists each. 

While at Roots Hall, right-back Sean Clohessy is second behind Ryan, on 4!
