Joey Harper Scoring Record Confusion

[SeeBass]

I've just read through Wikipedia that Joe Harper's record of 199 goals in three hundred appearances was 'upgraded' to 205 in three hundred appearances.  Can somebody explain why or how this would be if not an idiot being funny and editing his page.

AFC Heritage states 199 in 300 games

I'd go with this SeeBass

Big Al, spoken with somebody at club who informs me his Dryburgh Cup goals are now included in overall tally.

Confused mate.

Were his Dryburgh appearances included in his 300 games  ?

Wheel him out as a sub for taking penalties to nudge him over the 200 mark.

I remember this topic, many years ago, when his goals tally was increased from 199 to 205, i seem to remember his final goals for club were against Cowdenbeath ?

The greatest ever goal scorer for the mighty Dons.

I very much doubt we'll see his like again.

 

I thing that goals scored in friendlies were added.
