Lawrence Yaku

Having been discarded by Wealdstone, Yaks had been impressing at Ruislip Manor when he was asked to come along to pre-season training at Northwood in 1999. His first two games, in friendly matches, saw him score four times, at Bedfont and against Wealdstone and it soon became apparent that we might have something special to watch.

Yaku's first season produced an astonishing club record of 61 goals in all games - 36 of them in our Isthmian Division Two promotion season. That form continued the following season at the higher level, this time netting 47 goals - reaching 30 for the Isthmian season with a final day hat-trick. In his third and final year at Northwood he "only" managed 37 competitive goals! He continued to be a prolific goalscorer at Maidenhead United, and joined Hampton & Richmond Borough in August 2005.
