PLAYERS SCORING 20 GOALS IN A SEASON

As of the end of the 2019-20 season there have been forty times when players have scored 20 or more goals in a season.

Grenville Morris did it four times in the early 1900's, while Wally Ardron did it in four consecutive seasons in the early 1950's. The last player to score more than 20 in a season was Lewis Grabban in the 2019-20 season.

Three players made it to 20 goals before the end of the year - Wally Ardron (1950-51) and and Pierre van Hooijdonk (1997-98) made it by the end of December but David Johnson amazingly scored his 20th goal in 2002-03 on November 30th!

These are the players scoring more than 20 goals per season (competitive goals only), ordered by the most recent season:
