Praise for in-form striker from big Mick

Last updated : 18 August 2004 By Deano
Howard has now scored nine goals in the last 10 games (including the
end of last season), and has been the Town's top scorer for each of the
last three seasons.

Harford said:  "Howie's been exceptional. On Saturday he was
outstanding, particularly in the first-half.  I don't think he lost a
header and his hold-up play was superb."

Howard, in 141 appearances for the Hatters now has 69 goals to his name
in all competitions.
