RodneyTrottersFC 0 Posted February 7, 2014 Last post for today:After having won the Championship, enjoying being 1st place for 22 games, we were having a terrible attempt at the top flight. We found ourselves bottom, having won just 3 games, with 7 games to go.Then we beat United 2-0; and so began a comeback to marvel at. It meant we had managed get to have our own survival in our own hands.I watched that game in the pub with my brother and unfortunately, I can remember it well... We got thumped for 6 at Fulham, meaning we got relegated with 33 points.It''s crazy looking back 9 years: Bolton finished 6th, Middlesbrough finished 7th and Charleton finished 11th!Our attack ranking that season was 15th (currently=18th), with a goals per game of 1.11 (c=0.79) despite failed to score being 37% (c=38%).Our defensive ranking was the worst in the league (c=17th) by a margin of 11 goals and -10 GD.Then, as we all know... We failed to go back up for many years and even fell into the 3rd tier... We got thumped 7-1 on opening day and soon pinched their manager... The rest, as they say, is history....Don''t get me wrong: I am one of Hughton''s biggest anti-fans but I do feel the poor guy had tough luck to follow our best manager for a long time :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RodneyTrottersFC 0 Posted February 8, 2014 Wow... Talk about unnecessary lol could understand it if it was a post solely about slamming Hughton"get a life" ... Ha! At risk of sounding like a diva: you dont know me, who do you think you are?"try and enjoy the football" important word there is try... I cant help it if I find Hughton''s style and our performences hard to enjoy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
