Jimmy Quinn in nets for them most of the second half iirc

There were 22 teams in the division two seasons previous.

 

38 stopped up the year before.

 

I thought we held the record till west ham dropped?

 

 

Since the 38 match format was introduced in 1995-96 only West Ham (42 in 2003) hav been relegated with more than 40 points. But Bolton (1998) and Sunderland (1997) also went down on exactly 40.

 

Didn't we go down with the then record total?

 

Never mind the Everton debacle,we were robbed at home to Leeds.

 

Either would have kept us up.

 

And West Ham at home. Sure we had two goals disallowed in the first 10 minutes, ended up drawing 1-1.

All the very best Toddy. Man City away clinching the title us one my best days watching football. We played some great football under him and if we went one down nobody cared because we knew we would score and usually win.

 

I would love some of the team spirit he created now which showed itself v Wolves at " The Battle of Burnden" Who started the brawl? Most people forget.

 

 

John Sheridan started it. Top man !

 

And all the very best Toddy.

Good luck Colin , best ever season to be a Wanderers fan .Scoring goals for fun & only four defeats all season

 

My two mates at the time wanted Toddy sacked after relegation but they still refused to give him credit after our

 

record breaking season ........their line was it was all down to the players , self management then !!

 

Needless to say neither of these two tossers  go down to watch the team anymore.

Best of luck Colin, get well soon!

 

That was some team he put together 96-97- McGinlay, Blake, Thommo, Frandsen, Gudni, Johansen, Taggart...the list goes on!

 

Top man is Toddy

All the best Colin that was the best season ever!!!!

John Sheridan started it. Top man !

 

And all the very best Toddy.

Ricky G, Jussi, Gudjohnsen to name but a few of his great signings for us.

No idea on the clue, but Steve froggat?

Or Geoff Thomas as he did some charity cycling if I remember? If wrong I cant remember any more dog heads

Bonus point to Tomski. I used to go in Manny Road North seats then and had a great view of it. Thomas was poleaxed..m
