Bramble Set To Overtake Moncur Record

Last updated : 19 October 2006 By Footy Mad - Editor

Shola Ameobi is Newcastle's second highest goalscorer in European competition, but still a million miles away from the GOALden Boy, Alan Shearer.

However, a goal against Fenerbahce for Titus Bramble and he would equal the scoring exploits of striker Patrick Kluivert.

The under-fire defender seems to produce his best performances in European matches and has already scored four goals. That makes him, along with John Beresford and Toon legend Bob Moncur, the highest scoring Newcastle defender in European competition.
