Becks:-
30 goals for the second season running. The first time a Leeds United player
has done it in consecutive seasons. Only the late great John Charles has ever
had two 30-goal seasons in a career before (1953-54, 1956-57).
Already this season, Beckford has become the first Leeds United player since
the 1920s, and only the second ever, to score 20 goals in three consecutive
seasons. Tom Jennings was the first (1925-26, 1926-27, 1927-28).
I'm a big Beckford fan, but I feel I should point out that neither John
Charles, nor Allan Clarke, nor Jimmy Hasselbaink ever played two consecutive
seasons in the 3rd Division.
