Bob Brodie Trophy: Whittaker holds seven-goal lead at the top

Steve Whittaker of Cemaes Bay is seven goals clear in top spot as the Bob Brodie Trophy enters 2020.

The annual competition for the leading goalscorer in Anglesey senior football is now in its ninth season and commemorates Bob, a former manager and player on the island, who sadly passed away in 2011.

Since then, there have been five Anglesey League and three Welsh Alliance winners of the golden boot, with the holder of the record for the most goals going to James Ryan, who netted 72 for Caergybi last year.
