Football: Corsham goal machine James Lye has distanced himself from the praise he and strike partner Simon Gray are receiving.
The forward bagged two hat-tricks at the weekend, one for Corsham Town at Odd Down on Saturday and the other for Corsham Centre in the 10-0 Chippenham Sunday League Premier Division demolition of Miller Sports 24 hours later.
He netted again in Tuesday's 3-0 Les Phillips Cup win over Wellington and, coupled with Gray's opener, the pair have each hit 11 this season.
But 26-year-old Lye doesn't believe they should be getting all the plaudits ahead of Willand's visit to the Southbank on Saturday.
He said: "We are playing well together and enjoying ourselves, but we wouldn't score if it wasn't for the rest of the team supplying us.
"I don't mind who scores the goals, as long as we win, though hopefully a few people will chip in with some more."
But it was Lye who put struggling Odd Down to the sword with a clinical display of finishing to claim his treble within the first half an hour.
"I'm probably playing the best football I have done, because I have played in the Western League for a few years, but a lot of it is down to the team," he said.
Assistant manager Graham Learmonth praised both forwards and believes they can be the catalyst for Corsham's success.
"They can definitely get 40 goals between them and they compliment each other with James playing on the left and Simon on the right.
"Goals win games and they are as good as anybody in the league. If you have good strikers you are going to be in the top seven or eight."
After the Toolstation League Premier Division win at Odd Down, which saw them go seventh, Corsham entertained Wellington in the Les Phillips Cup First Round on Tuesday.
Gray volleyed the hosts ahead and Liam Fullam made it 2-0 midway through the first half.
The visitors were awarded a penalty on half time when Jamie Moss handled but Nicholas Gingell saved the resulting spot kick.
Then a quarter of an hour after the break, Lye continued his scoring run and ended the game as a contest.
