Without traipsing through Tim Carder's book, who are the Albion's all-time top 10 goalscorers in the second tier of English football? League matches only.

Two players share equal billing on fifth and on seventh.

Go...

He only scored a maximum of 14 and I'm not sure how many were in the cup.

Johny Burne must be in there, and possibly Mike Small

Pretty sure your right.

Wardy may well feature though.

It may not help identify him, but the guy in 1st place has more goals than the two players sharing seventh combined.

It's going to be someone unexpected at number one, I reckon. My money is on Terry Connor.

Correct answers as they come in...

1. 50 - Terry Connor
2. 33 - Danny Wilson
3.
4.
5. 26 - Robert Codner
5.
7. 24 - Ashley Barnes
7. 24 - Peter Ward
9.
10. 21 - Dean Saunders

Three on the list are from 50-odd years ago.

Not that unexpected. Four seasons as a first choice striker, with two of them being serious promotion campaigns.

I wonder if Danny Wilson gets in there, seeing as he took our penalties in the mid-1980s...

...to those whom were not part of the glory years. One never seems to hear him held in such high regard, unless I am listening to the wrong people.
