Who Is In Charge Of The Race For The Golden Boot?

By Sam Elliott

Is it all over? Is there any stopping the leader with such a big advantage with the games ticking down?

No, not the National League title race, we’re talking about the mission to land the divison’s Golden Boot.

The only thing stopping AFC Fylde freescorer Danny Rowe from getting his hands on another one is a goal blitz.

He’s done the business again this season after destroying all in his path last time out in the National League North, a season which he scored 50 times in all competitions.

With 23 so far, the rest need to find form and fast. Tranmere’s lethal duo James Norwood and Andy Cook weren’t helped by an Easter weekend off but with games in hand, who knows.

Here’s the official standings and remember, only league goals count towards the tally.

Danny Rowe (AFC Fylde) 23 goals

Andy Cook (Tranmere Rovers) 19 goals
