Not wishing to clutter up the hope thread, but out of interest I crunched the numbers of leading scorers of sides finishing in the auto slots in Div 4 for the 18 seasons of the 21st century.
So that's 18 seasons, giving 54 separate promotions. What it reveals is that 37% of auto teams have had a 20+ goalscorer, whereas 63% of auto teams have not had a 20+ goalscorer. No side has had 2 20+ men.
In that time the single most prolific was Andy Morrell of Wrexham who scored 34 goals in 02-03 as they finished 3rd. In only 5 of the 18 seasons has the team winning the league had a 20+ goalscorer. Last season Billy Kee managed 25, previous to that it was Craig Davies with 23 at Chesterfield in 10-11.
On 7 occasions Div 4 has been won with a leading scorer with no more than the 13 Luke Norris got last season. On 2 occasions a team winning Div 4 has had Gary Roberts a wide midfielder as leading scorer with 11.

This figure surprises me, I still want a 20+ goal striker though as well as spreading several goals between the rest of the side  |

Innis stands at 6'5". Built like a tank. Arrested a couple of years ago for smashing a bottle over someone's head.

Played under Brown when on loan at Southend so not a bad shout.

An impressive number of 8 loan clubs over the years - since 2013. Would have thought that by now Palace must know if they want him or not.
Nothing beats a giant brick shithouse in L2.

Should fit right in
His father went to prison, his mother a drug addict, he has 3 police cautions and was a former alcoholic. Chequered history off the field to say the least! |

tbf, he was released after 3 days on appeal. Still doesn't sound like he'd be an immediate shoe-in for helping out with the Football in the Community after school clubs, though |

Alfie Potter chose not to play Friday in case he got injured.
Alfie Potter can fuck off as far as I'm concerned.
