Nick is now third in this season's Celtic League leaderboard of accumulated points, behind prolific scorers Felipe Contepomi and David Humphreys.

Missing most of last season due to injury, Nick's best Celtic League points tally for a season is 187 (Celtic League & Cup) in 2003/4. However he played 22 games that season and only 12 so far this season, a much better return per game. Nick now stands fourth in the overall all-time Celtic League points tally.
