These boots were made for scoring...28 November 2000Hat trick hero Lee Hughes has revealed the secret behind his scorching scoring form - Derek McInnes?s boots! Injured West Brom skipper, McInnes, out for the season with cruciate knee ligament damage, offered Hughes a pair from his own locker when Albion?s star striker complained that his current ones were tatty. The £5 million-rated hitman laced them up for the first time against Gillingham, and has since plundered two hat-tricks in consecutive matches. "Derek has got no chance of getting them back, they?re my lucky boots now" said Hughes. "My old ones had holes in them and I needed a new pair. I was going to ask the kitman, Dave Matthews, for some, but Derek offered me a pair. They?ve helped me enjoy what has been a perfect week." Looks like we've stumbled on Derek's secret now! I wonder how many more pairs he has in that locker...
