Quoted from grimsby pete
I seem too remember that Clive scored his 19 goals in a season that we did not do very well.

When he was injured and could not play in many games in another season and hardly scored we finished a lot higher up the league.

Which does not make much sense as we were a lot better team when Clive was in it.


Long thought it was just a case of our stars not aligning at that point.

Post Buckley and early Laws we kicked on and moved on in terms of our play.  But it came at the time when Clive was injured.  Ivanogate is always pointed to as the reason that team crumbled away from a promotion change, but that isn't true.  The wheels had already started to come off a bit and results were tailing off, we peaked a couple of months earlier around November time.  

Livvo and Forrester plugged away up top but neither were prolific at that level, had Clive been fit for most of that season...

Prior to Jack Lewis with the 21 goals in the 1974-75 season, it was Matt Tees with 27 league goals in the 1971-72 season. Brace scored 19 that season as well, also Hickman with 13 goals.

Quoted from cardiffmariner
Okay, so received a message from a mate this morning saying he’d just read an article in The Times (I know) which has Town down as the team with the longest wait to have a 20+ goal scorer in the top 4 leagues. According to the article it was Jack Lewis in the 74-75 season.


Not read the article but surely there is someone who has never done it and therefore have been waiting longer than us. I'm thinking of relative newcomers to the EFL, Sutton perhaps?

Think it's based on which club has been waiting the longest (whilst a league club), therefore we've been waiting longer than Sutton due to our time in the league compared to theirs.

By the looks of it, 2020–21 could be the season with the lowest goal scorer in any season in our entire history and I think he was brought in January transfer window.

Didn't Michael Reddy bag quite a few in the play-off loss season? Seem to remember Jones got in to the mid teens, maybe Reddy just fell short?
