And another late goal for Donny. Looks like it could be the winner against league leaders Walsall. Donny looking good for promotion.

They drew 2-2.

Also 1 win in 5 for Donny.

Absolutely brilliant finish, well worth a watch.

I went to the Donny game on Saturday and they were comfortable winners, nobody in League 2 has been consistently good, making it the most exciting league by far. Genuinely unpredictable.

One of the best days of Billy's career.

Promoted for the sixth time in his career.

Got to be the best striker outside the PL of the last 30 years. Shame he never made the step up properly, but he's made a career of scoring goals for fun in the EFL. Absolute legend. Hopefully now Donny are up he'll be allowed to play in Bash's testimonial game.

Booting a ball into the stands as well. That’s basically his 1st Interview passed for when Wilder goes again.

Everyone knows Billy Sharp scores goals.

Yet he always somehow finds space for himself in the 6 yard box. Absolutely elite at it.

And an amazing shithouse as well

Get him back at the end of the season. I don't care if it's as a ballboy or even a player, just bring him home. This squad are gutless and we need to bring in some players/staff that possess some steel and heart.

If only you could bottle that and put it in our current squad's half time brew.

After scoring Saturday Billy has 261 all time English league goals, which is 32nd of the all-time list.

4 more to get past Jamie Cureton, then I think there is only Shearer and Sheringham who have more goals and have played in this millennium

Amazing stat.

Question - has he ever played in a play off final? I can't recall him playing in one for us (probably completely wrong) but not sure if he's featured for any other team either.

I think I am right in saying he has never played in any play off game. He was injured both times we made the playoffs when he was with us. His 6 promotions have all been automatic.

What about relegations? I am pretty sure he’s been with us when we’ve gone down, in his first stints, but can’t recall. He was with us when we came down under Hecky wasn’t he?

One relegation with us. 2020-1.

There may be others with his other clubs.
