      With one of the smallest budgets in League Two, Accrington Stanley have sealed a historic comeback to League One - for the first time since 1947.

      After finishing in 13th place in 2016/17, Stanley upped their game this term and took English football's 4th tier by storm.

      Accrington topped the pile with 93 points, five more than runner-ups Luton Town. Along the way, the team grabbed an incredible 29 wins - four more than any other team in the competition.

       

       

      Billy Key was Stanley's top scorer with 25 goals, picking up League Two's Golden Boot award, helping his side finish with a +30 goal difference. 

      When it comes to assists, Sean McConville was Stanley's main supplier - the cultured midfielder being one of only six players in the top 4 tiers to reach double figures in league goals AND assists in 17/18.
