Great read Dave I wish we could emulate what we achieved last time we got promoted under GT it would be brilliant I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope the Gods are on our side.

I seem to recall that the Barnsley game came the day after we beat Hull 5-0 to go top. There was a tremendous photo of one of the goals by Terry Weir in the programne of the Barnsley keeper rooted to the spot and the ball sailing over his head but can't remember the scorer.

Just been looking at that season... apparently we won three games in three days from 1st-3rd January (including a cup game against Leeds). Surely that can't be right?
