WHO is the Welsh Premier League’s leading goalscorer across all three main domestic competitions this season?
Perennial chart-topper Rhys Griffiths of Llanelli? Bangor City’s on-fire Jamie Reed? All-time league record marksman Marc Lloyd Williams?
No. The player with the most goals in the Welsh Premier, Welsh Cup and Loosemores League Cup combined is a midfielder having the season of his life.
Rhyl’s Mark Connolly has netted a remarkable 26 goals this term – almost as many as he managed in his entire first four seasons with the Lilywhites.

League is becoming a laughing stock |
|
Sunday 21 February 2010 |
 FORMER Newtown and Llansantffraid manager and TNS and Technogroup Welshpool general manager Graham Breeze says the organisation of the Welsh Premier League is becoming a laughing stock.
Breeze spoke to welsh-premier.com after hearing that the Bala v Llanelli game had been cancelled today.
"I have been observing from a distance the recent shambolic goings on and this week has really brought the comedy show to the fore," he said.
"The Welsh Premier League is making unbelievable and unwanted demands on semi-professional clubs yet its own behaviour has become farcical and completely unprofessional.
"This month has been a classic. Firstly the league announced that the Welshpool v The New Saints and Carmarthen v Rhyl games on Easter Monday were cancelled so that Rhyl and The New Saints could play the Loosemores League Cup Final at Airbus.

PHIL Clarke eases into the comfy chair of the interview room.
Like a moggy curling up in front of a roaring fire in winter, the Hawke's Bay United soccer player adjusts his 74kg frame before engaging in the question-answer ritual.
It's not easy to decipher his Liverpudlian accent but he has no qualms about hitting the rewind button to massage his words.
What he reveals, though, about Toxteth, the inner city area of Liverpool on the Merseyside of England, needs no interpretation.
"It's a slummy, black-populated area. You are already labelled even before you kick a ball,'' the 21-year-old midfielder tells SportToday before their New Zealand Football Championship (NZFC) match against YoungHeart Manawatu in Napier on Sunday.
