Dear All
This has definitely been the most barking mad season in my 40 years supporting the club - if you doubt what I'm saying, here's some proof:
The season can pretty much be divided into four parts - horrendous start, fantastic recovery, another horrendous run, another fantastic recovery.
Horrendous part (Ipswich home to Derby away, then Brum away to Blackburn home) Played 23 Points 15.
Double that and you're vying with Bolton for bottom spot - we'd maybe shade it on goal difference.
Superb part (Rotherham home to Reading away, then Forest away to Fulham home) Played 22 Points 47.
Double that and you win the league.
Those effing transfer windows had a terrible effect on everyone, players included, but a couple of international breaks brought about a complete change of form.
Finally, fair play to DS - some serious questions were being asked despite having been dealt a crap hand, and he has come up with the goods when we were sliding towards a relegation battle (his words not mine).
Regards
Gordon
