There was an even better thread mid February congratulating Leeds and Sheffield United on their promotion and one notorious poster getting his GCSE Maths muddled.

I’ll save their blushes and not bump it.

Think you’re being a bit too gallant here agreenwood.
Go on, bump it!

I think the real hysteria was in the final week of the transfer window when people seemed to be treating any slight rumour as fact (Foster to Ipswich for £25m anyone) and convinced that every single player vaguely linked with another team was going.

Good shout this one. The weird thing is I haven't really changed my opinion in terms of the players Brought in apart from them being a bit better at this level than I thought. It's a promotion built on the team not the Individuals. We probably didn't make any signings of huge individual quality in the summer but we made clever signings which fitted a system and Parker had a real idea of what he was trying to create.

The signing of Edwards was the final piece which unlocked the attacking side.

Correct. My prediction of the autos with Leeds probably wouldn't have come true without the Edwards signing. Now, let's see if we can clinch the title.

At 1 point prior the speed & frequency of people leaving you could be forgiven for having doubts that the furniture & fittings weren't bolted to the floor. Literally anybody was up for grabs & with the right contractual circumstances more would have left it was only down to a combination of lack of other interest & binding contracts & player inclinations to stay more didn't leave.

He's been quiet recently, but then Foster has been out injured and not had another opportunity to prove he's the best striker in the division!

And his whipping boy Brownhill has scored 16 goals from midfield!

Never thought I'd see a top level club chairman climbing into a skip to get the ball! As shown in the latest Keeping The Faith video.
