Last Boro player to top the division

Ah ok. Someone on here gave me duff info the other day then. 😁

So as things stand, who last scored 24 league goals in a season for us? I know Slaven's best was only 21 (which he got twice I think).
So Hickton scored 24 in 69-70, but he scored 25 in 70/71, so I guess that's Akpoms next target to make it best Boro league goals in 52 years

The target after that would be John O'Rourke who got 27 in 66/67, which would be the best in 56 years.

These are both very achievable.

At a push he might challenge Alan Peacocks 31 goals in 62-63, but that'll take some going. 31 would be the joint best since Cloughy in 60-61 with 34 (cloughy's worst season!) AND would mean only Camsell, Clough, Fenton, McClelland and Wilson had scored more in a season.
