Shackell and Vokes share lead after Yeovil win

Last updated : 15 January 2014 By Tony Scholes

Both now have 107 points but both need to watch out as Danny Ings, surprisingly some way behind them for much of the season so far, is catching up quickly after a good start to the year and is now only 20 points behind.

Ings took first place in both the man of the match vote and the player ratings for the Huddersfield game and in the following games at Southampton and Yeovil was second in both on both occasions and that's given him 22 points so far in January, and that has more than halved the deficit between him and top place.

Vokes was the winner at Southampton and Dean Marney won both in the 2-1 win at Yeovil, and this despite one poster on the message board describing his performance as: "Industrious, but for me nothing more. Not convinced that Jones and Marney will be good enough to see us into the promotion slot."

With the site and message board now more stable, normal service will be resumed for future games and the vote for the Sheffield Wednesday home game will be available on Saturday evening, approximately one hour after the final whistle.
