The forward, who joined Charlton last summer after leaving Cheltenham Town, scored two goals in Saturday’s 3-2 home victory over Carlisle, securing the top spot in the third-tier goal-scoring charts. He is currently three goals ahead of Devante Cole from Barnsley and Jamie Reid from Stevenage.
This marks the third consecutive season that May has reached the 20-goal mark in League One, with previous seasons seeing him bagging 23 and 20 goals during his time with the Robins.
Reflecting on his recent performance, May stated, “I’ve now scored in four consecutive matches. I hope to maintain this momentum in the next eight games and strive for the golden boot, that’s my goal. I’m also eager to see how far our team can go.”
Being in contention for the golden boot at this stage of the season is a significant personal achievement for May, who finished joint-second and third in previous seasons. He expressed his determination to continue scoring by emphasizing the importance of hard work on the training pitch and continual improvement. Despite a brief slowdown in his Charlton career, where he scored 19 goals by early December but only one in the following 13 outings in all competitions, May is focused on reaching new milestones, aiming for 30 league goals in the ongoing campaign.
