Despite scoring just 17 points - his worst score of the season - striker Leon McKenzie, nephew of former British boxer Duke, delivered a knockout blow to his rivals by jumping above Ipswich striker Alan Lee to the top of the Index with 92 points.
Michael Doyle is just four points behind in third after his magnificent late winner in the 2-1 victory over Preston at the Ricoh Arena pocketed him a season-high 33 points. He has also contributed 28 passes, 19 crosses, nine tackles and four interceptions.
