5 Season defining moments

[Sexton Blake]

I tend to think that every game following the Orient win was season defining. Following that we went on a run where every team we played was a place above us and each time we beat them we went above them.

The Mansfield win for me was when I was fairly sure we would make it even though there was still plenty of work to be done afterwards. It just felt pivotal and I didn't leave near the end and miss a ton of goals for a change.

Bleddy Yeovil defence!

Ok, then.
1. Hiring Matt Taylor & Wayne Carlisle as coaches
2. The Orient win
3. The comeback against Yeovil
4. Beating Mansfield away
5. Beating Doncaster away

 

[Avening Posse]

Sticking with Tisdale when things were stark in November
Brown back to partner JMT
Winning at Orient
Winning at Portsmouth in January
Being able to train on the new pitch at the Cat and Fiddle whenever we liked

Taking a slightly different slant...

Jake Taylor adapting to the central midfield role.
The signing of Reuben Reid.
The return of Troy Brown and JMT together in the centre of defence.
The return to form of Craig Woodman.
The run of goals from David Wheeler.

and some credit to the Board...for 5 key decisions

August...authorising the loan signings of Stacey (and Croll) even though the squad was up to numbers
September....authorising the signing of Reuben Reid even though the budget was spent
Autumn...sticking with the manager even though the results and table looked bad
November....handling the 'giving notice to the manager' issue so that it didn't cause major turmoil as it so easily could've done
January.... turning down 'really serious money' for Ollie watkins

Good list, Andrew. Better than mine, which just focused on results. Can we swap?

To clarify. Notice was given on the Manager's CONTRACT, NOT the manager.

Either way, it remains the only thing to do with city from this season that makes me ashamed
