I believe Turner was in charge that game. It was our first game after we were relegated the season before. Sturrock came the year after.

Turner was in charge in the first game after relegation  vs Colchester at home and we lost 4-1 didn’t we?

Best game probably the 4-1 win over Burnley about 12 years ago. Played them off the park that day.

 

We beat them 8-3 over both games that season but they still got promoted whilst we languished in mid-table.

 

But favourite was away to Brighton about 8 years ago. Was a horrendous journey and the coach only arrived at 2:55. Up until then it genuinely looked like we'd miss the game. 

 

But once Giles Coke scored that screamer all the stress was forgotten.

 

Also won the quiz on the coach, with a perfect 35 out of 35. Won a massive £16.

Apologies if we’ve had this thread recently. 
 

I liked this game…  

 

(I hope I’m right in thinking it was the first home game of that season) 

 

 


i share your liking for this game as it was when it felt like we were a genuine championship promotion contender at the start of the season. The season before that was all the unknown.  
 

We then went and drew 0-0 at Norwich didn’t we (cough *bus*) and that was a fantastic start against two relegated PL sides.

 

I also liked the 4-1 win over Burnley with Sodje scoring a couple
