Our last 10 seasons opening results show that you cant read anything into losing on the opening day as we've lost the last 3 openers & had 3 very different seasons.When weve won on day one we have had a good season though so lets hope its 3 points on Saturday.

07/08 - Lost away at Luton - Mediocrity
06/07 - Lost home to Swindon - Promoted
05/06 - Lost home to Bradford - Relegated
04/05 - Won home to Bradford - Play offs
03/04 - Won away to Peterbrough - Play offs
02/03 - Won away to Carlisle - Promoted
01/02 - Drew home to Mansfield - Play offs
00/01 - Won away to Lincoln - Play Offs
99/00 - Lost Away to Peterbrough - Play Offs
98/99 - Drew home to Cardiff - Relegation dogfight

Thanks to MadJohns In The MadCrowd for the stats.

To be honest, Groovy any opening fixture at all on its one is not an indiaction of how any team is going to do.Even after a good couple of games and we'd beaten Orient last season fantastically who were the leaders and we still had the worst season in our modern history.

Worst season in modern history last year?????????

What about the scotty season?

Last year was below average and definately not our worst season in recent times.

Sorry, the most frustrating season in modern history then - relegation season was definitely the worst.

Ah memories.... I was at the Orient game & we were in such control against the team at the top of the table that it looked certain that we were going to stroll up into the Championship........

Kinda depends on what you call 'modern' I think like, to me the 90s is modern and in part the 80s.

Guess Im just old therethere

The most frustrating seasons are the 2 promotions,we were close enough to touch the champions trophy & came 2nd.
