Default Top goalscorers

A lot has been said about our goalscoring, or more accurately lack thereof.

So, to start off, I'll say that, as of the Ebbsfleet game, we have three joint top scorers in the league - and one of them is Shaun Pearson.

The two goals at Ebbsfleet were both Beavon's and Pearson's 5th league goal of the season respectively, putting them level with Mike Fondop - who has spent half the season on loan, and a good chunk of the half he was here not getting gametime.

In case anyone was curious about the tallies in all competitions, Beavon and Fondop are equal with 6 (Beavon scoring in the Weston-Super-Mare FA Cup match and Fondop scoring in the FA Trophy match vs. Boston United)

I've never known a team whose joint-top goalscorer was their centre-half, let alone a play-off chasing team.

I suppose a good follow up question would be to predict who will end up as our top scorer, and ask has there ever been a time where a defender has been a club's top goalscorer in a season?
