Absolute no brainer, Martin Scott.

Managed one of our best ever squads with probably our biggest ever budget and was an utter disaster, Boydy scored 29 the season before he was sub for Micheal Procter on the seasons opening day. We got relegated with loads of good players, all of the other people mentioned had a far tougher job.

Spot on. That squad could have challenged for automatic promotion that year with the right manager.

That Scott season was absolutely brutal, this game in particular sticks out for me.

The atmosphere at the game was toxic.

That Blackpool game was one of the few times I gave an opposition player a standing ovation. Name escapes me but think he played for us later on and was utter gash.

Tryig to think who else i gave a standing ovation to now, did Ainsworth once have a blinder against us?

He had a few cracking games against us, but I seem to remember him getting a good reception from our fans when he was subbed in one of his later games, so probably Wycombe?



Yeah that will be it, think he was pretty old at the time.
