Jack Barham chalked up the milestone when he opened the scoring in a 4-0 victory.

He became the 111th different Maidstone scorer since the stadium opened in 2012, with their total goals in all competitions standing at 447.

Club photographer Steve Terrell has shared nearly a decade’s worth of stats, featuring plenty of old favourites and a few names you might have forgotten.

Paul Booth, a player who needs no introduction, scored the Stones’ first-ever league goal at Whatman Way.

It came from the penalty spot in a 5-4 opening-day Isthmian South East defeat by Walton & Hersham on August 18 2012.

Booth also scored Maidstone’s second goal that day and netted seven league goals in total at the Gallagher, putting him ninth in the all-time list.

Frannie Collin, the 18th different scorer after joining from Tonbridge in 2013, tops the chart with 24 goals, one clear of Alex Flisher, while Jay May is third on 18.

With Booth on his own in ninth, four players share 10th place with Ade Olorunda, Joe Pigott, Stuart King and current Stones star Joan Luque all on six goals.
