Wednesday 14 September 2016 12:40, UK
Newcastle striker Dwight Gayle heads the winners of the first Sky Bet Goal of the Month poll - and you can watch the strikes you voted for right here!
Gayle takes the inaugural prize for the Championship for his first goal in a 4-1 win over Reading, beating off competition from Norwich midfielder Jacob Murphy's goal against Blackburn and Fulham midfielder Tom Cairney's strike against Leeds.
Gayle's free-kick won a whopping 69 per cent of the vote, which was held on skysports.com and the Sky Sports apps and is new for the 2016/17 campaign.
In League One, Jay Spearing's volley in Bolton's opening-day win against Sheffield United was voted the top strike from the first month, ahead of Jay Emmanuel-Thomas' strike for Gillingham against Shrewsbury and Mark Marshall's goal for Bradford against Coventry.
Plymouth's Graham Carey scooped the Goal of the Month award for League Two.
Carey's second goal against Mansfield last month lead the way in the public vote ahead of Alex Kiwomya's goal for Crewe against Newport and Dan O'Shaughnessy's Cheltenham effort against Mansfield.
The Sky Bet Goal of the Month awards will celebrate the best goals scored in the Sky Bet Championship, League One and League Two throughout the season.
Each month, a panel of three representatives from the EFL, Sky Bet and Sky Sports will pick the best three goals scored in each of the three divisions, to form the Sky Bet EFL Goal of the Month shortlists - but you'll decide the winner.
