Under Kennedy: 11pts in 13 games (0.84 ppg)

Under Gunning: 1pt in 1 games (1.00 ppg)

Under Holloway 35pts in 23 games (1.52 ppg)


Holloway's PPG over the season is 70pts, which probably gets us to just missing out on the playoffs. It's good, but it's not spectacular. We'd probably be slightly disappointed with that season in isolation!

I cant help but think as well if we were in a position to actually be challenging for the play offs at this stage then the players would give that "little bit extra" which could well work in our favour in a play off push.

As it stands we cant reach them so the players are pretty much coasting now it seems.

I mean you could argue that’s Holloway’s PPG is potentially dragged down by the earlier games where he’s had to slowly undo all of Kennedy’s bad work.

Hypothetically, if Holloway had taken over in the summer, had all of pre season to work on shape, tactics, fitness etc would his PPG be higher.

A moot point & unprovable but speculative all the same

Well, unless things go spectacularly wrong with the contract, next season will be that.

Starting to look a bit squeaky for that Beamish Line. Can Clem claim our two worst finishes in succession?

  • We have 7 games left this season
  • We currently have 48 points from 39 games, at 1.23 PPG
  • Last season, we achieved 54 points from 46 games at 1.17 PPG
  • The last ten games, we're running at 1.4 PPG (WDLWWDDDDL)
  • We need 1.00 PPG from here to beat the mark and reach 55 points
  • Stretch goal: get to 60 points to beat the Beamish Line too: we'd need 1.71 PPG
  • Wild hope: get to 73 points for the average last playoff spot, we'd need 3.57 PPG (tricky that)
  • In 22/23 under Lindsay/Morris/Gunning we reached 61 points, which we'd need 2 PPG to beat
  • In 18/19 under Brown/Wellens we reached 64 points, which we'd need 2.1 PPG to beat
  • In 17/18 under Flitcroft/Brown we reached 68 points, which we'd need 3 PPG to beat

Remaining games are: (current league positions)

Wimbledon (H) - 5th
Fleetwood (A) - 12th
Bradford (H) - 2nd
Grimsby (A) - 7th
Bromley (H) - 13th
Gillingham (A) - 19th
MK (H) - 17th

8 points from 6 games should be doable, although we love a draw lately.

Forty years ago today we played at home to Southend in front of a crowd of less than 3,000.

Town were sat 11th in Division 4, and we were about to start on a journey in the next 10 years that would lead us to the premier league.

It just goes to show how things can turn around.

That must be the famous game when Macari had just been sacked and the fans got him reinstated. Remember it well... 40 years ago, mind boggling. The next few years after that were utterly fabulous...

He came and sat in the North Stand about 3 or 4 minutes after kick off, he was sat about 4 rows behind me and got a standing ovation. I'm sure a couple of people went on the pitch too to protest although I could be wrong.

That was an incredible day. It showed the positive power of protest. Helped surround Macaris car after the game. Something changed that day for sure.
