Goal and assist so far today - that's 3 goals and 2 assists since joining Cheltenham. Seems to have settled in fairly well.
We're decent enough..

 Another goal and an assist today for Aidan. 6 goals and 3 assists in 1200 minutes since his January move, impressive start to life across the water, yet another who at 24yo still has a chance!

Has not had a linear career trajectory but this is him proving himself consistently at the highest level he has to date so it will be interesting to see how far he can go. I remember he had a couple of decent loans out of Hearts and then moved down to England but back up to Scotland for personal reasons (per Hartlepool manager at the time) and ended up down the divisions in Falkirk as a result. Settled and scored at Sligo. Settling and scoring at Cheltenham. Hopefully things do continue in this more linear manner!

Ruairi Paton is another example. Young strikers/attacking players need to be learning the craft at a young age regardless of the level and it’s often a positive to be learning it multiple divisions below your potential ceiling if it means your getting regular gametime. 

Jonathan Walters,Daryl Murphy Kevin Doyle high profile examples of this.

Keena is currently part of the worst attack in the history of English league football at Cheltenham Town. They're 10 games into the season and they haven't scored a goal yet, he's played in every game so far. Things got so bad at the weekend that he was taken off after 35 minutes to try to improve things. That didn't work either though so the problems are presumably more than just him. But not a great position to be in all the same.

Seems a fairly arbitrary point in time to declare a side "the worst at (insert whatever) in history"?

On Keena specifically, he managed 6 goals and 3 assists in 19 league games for Cheltenham in the 2nd half of last season, which would suggest he's capable of performing at that level.

Well, no professional team in England has ever gone this long into a season without scoring a goal before, so I guess that makes them the worst.

Came on as a sub but no goals tonight. For him or for Cheltenham. They already had set the record for the longest time from the start of a season to go without a league goal, but now they've also equalled the longest time without a league goal at any point in the season.
