Daniele Giovanni Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Apart from a 4-4 draw v Manchester United, it was a very depressing season, went the last 17 games with 3 draws and 14 defeats, 21 points (2pts for a win), That was one bad 9 months, first time in 3rd division, eventually big Jack was the one who brought us back to life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kentowl Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Eric McMordie came on a short term loan and ended up top scorer with 6 goals. Turned down a permanent move in favour of York City. When things are bad I remember those days. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original game postponed as FA Cup semi at S6. Owls needed to squeeze loads of games into latter part of season after postponements for weather etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
