TOM Bradshaw is the first Millwall player in 28 seasons to score in four consecutive league games in the second tier – and will match Alex Rae’s record if he finds the net against Stoke this Saturday.
Bradshaw has five goals in his last four games – against Luton, Leeds, Brentford and Cardiff – and is aiming to match the run of Rae in the 1991-92 season.
Bradshaw has scored seven goals in all competitions this season since returning from a cruciate ligament injury.
The former Barnsley striker has averaged one goal every 120 minutes in this campaign, the third-best record in the Championship.
Only six players have scored in four or more league games in a row in the second or first tiers since 1945.
