I honestly have no idea. Closest I’ve found is 2007/2008 when Phillips and Miller had 24 and 16 goals each.
If we’ve ever had it, I’m sure Ska’d will pop up in a couple of hours with a full database of information. Whenever you’re ready Ska’d....

Thanks - general feedback from friends is 57-58 Sir Bobby Robson & Ronnie Allen.
That seems a long time ago - not checked myself, but Astle & Brown + Phillips & Kamara 06-07 must have been close?
RE: WBA vs Preston - Match Thread - Ska'dForLife-WBA - 14-04-2019
Phillips & Kamara in 2006-07 if you count playoff and/or FA Cup goals (unfortunately Super Kev didn't quite make 20 in the regular season).

Well done Ska'd, if it's not to much work, how about just in the league, it would be interesting g. Thanks for your efforts.

I seem to remember in 65/66 that Astle, Brown, and Kaye all got 20+ goals (and Chippy got about 15) - but that number included League Cup goals (which were plenty that year).
RE: WBA vs Preston - Match Thread - 4evaabaggie - 14-04-2019
Well, I think we can safely say our only route back to the greed league is by beating the inform seals in the play offs ........ unless both
Leeds get no more than three more points, their currently 82 GD +27
Blades get no more than five more points, their currently 79 GD +30
Albion get twelve more points, we are currently 73 GD +25
We could do it with blades getting six points but only if we turned around a five goal goal difference deficit.
Clutching at very very thin straws but clubs do bottle it, if they each lose the next two, we win our next two, pressure mounts on them. 2002 we overturned a wolves team who looked odds on but their bottom fell out ...... keeping hoping until friday, it will be all over then.
Of course blades and Leeds could lose all four games, we would then only need three wins but that would require my local farmer installing a runway in his field next to his sty's .......

On quest, I think they said the last time in the league was 57/58 but I don't know personally.
