I know! I had a peruse because Reg had pulled out that one season where we started like this but finished flat on our face.
Now, if I limit it to only seasons we went up, only 1995/96 would have a better start after 11 games when I go back to 1985, if we were to win tomorrow. So that's equal or better than 5 out of 6 promotions. In 1995/96, we started with an extra win after 11 and carried on winning for a few more, but then hit a drop in form in November.
To me, the preponderance of data suggests we should be happy, as it happens, the data was not necessary in making me feel happy.

Oh you and your facts!  TBF I'm minded to agree with Reg that we should be aiming for autos, if only on the grounds that I don't see 3 teams better than us in this division. |

It's OK Paul,we'll be matching two of the three Automatic seasons if we win tomorrow, and the two we would be matching or beating were at this level. I hear a win tomorrow and Reg is hosting a street party, with bunting.

There's just way too many imponderables to be thinking about bunting designs just yet. I mean, who the hellas going to bake the saffron buns!  |

Still undecided on going to the game, probably stay on the piss.
1 nil to the town and the goal wont come from a corner.

0 - 1
Ian (or the Ginger Messi) with a belter of an own goal. Floated from 36yds intended as a back pass to LMc in the 3rd minute. Only for it to get a little more wind under it, float higher and catch the keeper too far off his line. Newport will then allow us to have all the ball and soak it up with a combination of dirty tackles, play acting and parking the proverbial. No one will come out of it looking too great. Except Reg of course. Well, that will be what the history books say.

Very optimistic that we will win.
