Beckford finished top scorer in the division with 34 goals and was the first Leeds striker to pass the 30-mark since Lee Chapman in the 1990/91 season.

Either the competition included cup goals or they're talking shit.

So the golden boot for League 1 won't go to the person (well, people) with the most League 1 goals?

Goals and clean sheets in The Coca-Cola Football League, Carling Cup, Johnstone's Paint Trophy and FA Cup sponsored by E.ON have all counted towards the PUMA Golden Boot and Golden Glove awards.

It's just the PUMA golden boot, a new award brought in this season. Cox and Lambert still win the league golden boot.

They also have the PUMA golden glove, which is most clean sheets. Its just another 'sponsored' award.

Leeds are desperate to win anything, even a dodgy corporate award.
