The only two 20 goal strikers in promotion years in my lifetime are Tees and Amond. In the Third Division Championship season the goals were spread around - Drinkell 16, Kilmore 15, Cumming 14 - Joe Waters chipped in with 8 as well.

Most of the promotions in my lifetime have come from teams who spread the scoring around the squad.

Special Brew Drinker Posts: 7,638 Posts Per Day: 1.34 Reputation: 79.65% Rep Score: +43 / -11 Location: Norfolk Approval: +8,658 Gold Stars: 23	We need two strikers to contribute 20-30+ goals between them. Then we will see the natural result of more space in the box and other players getting close to double figures But the key is those two main strikers. Maybe the game has changed but Tees & Green, Tees & Brace, Rafferty & Hunt, Rafferty & Portwood, wymark & Drinkell, Lump and Reddy …… you need dangermen to open up the space befor the Souzas and Mcatees can make their Joe Waters/Mike Brolly style contribution. “If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.” ― John Stuart Mill, On Liberty."

Said with tongue firmly in cheek, btw. "Don't shine that light in my face, mate - I've just lost a pint of blood."
