The crazy thing about that season is that I never even thought about getting relegated because I just assumed it couldn't happen to us.

 

In retrospect, finishing 13th was basically a miracle given what we had to work with.

There should be a dedicated injuries thread although it would probably be over 1000 pages by now.

 

 

Was just thinking this, some sites I've looked at have us at 7 first team players out, but I feel it's more than that?

This reminds me of that season under Roeder where everybody was injured all the time and the matchday squad was Peter Ramage, David Edgar, Shola Ameobi, and eight randomly selected fans.

 

Except we're somehow still good, I guess.


Paul Huntington at left back drilling one in away to Spurs. Matty Pattison down the same flank ran riot that day. Chimbonda didn’t know what hit him.

Antoine Sibierski made 39 appearances and scored 8 goals.

 

No, that's not a typo.

Was a no brainer to sign him permanently after the loan spell. Sad how things have played out with injuries.

 

Got that first injury at the worst possible time. Was absolutely fine up to them, his injury got Botman in the starting XI and we moved Burn out there, then we went on that great defensive run. I think we'd have been just as solid with Targett over Burn and we might have even won a few more during that spell where we seemed to draw loads as he offered something going forward too.

I'd be surprised if he got any meaningful minutes. He barely played when he was fit before and when he did he looked way off the pace. He won't be a shoe-in ahead of Burn so I can't him being brought up to speed slowly. 

Would expect us to try and shift him in the summer.
