Lee Gregory on 69 goals for Millwall after being awarded their one in EFL Cup loss to Fulham

BY RICHARD CAWLEY

Lee Gregory has moved on to 69 career goals for Millwall after being awarded their goal in the EFL Cup defeat to Fulham last month.

Initially it had been credited to Tom Elliott.

But we had a story a few days later revealing that Gregory was claiming a final touch.

And Millwall confirmed on their Twitter feed today that the striker had now been credited with it.

At a meeting of the Dubious Goals Committee, it has been confirmed that the goal scored by #Millwall in the 61st minute of the @Carabao_Cup defeat to @FulhamFC is to be credited to @lgreggers9 pic.twitter.com/tJ8wUoMbxW

It means Gregory has seven goals this season – clearly leading the way in the scoring charts.

He has netted 69 times in 203 appearances for the Lions.
