...Town may well be sitting in their highest league position in over 40 years...top of the Championship..! (apart from a brief moment under Steve Bruce)...
Not since that Tuesday night on 14th April 1970 have we held this lofty position after a glorious night at Leeds Road when Watford were despatched 3-1 and Jimmy Nick and the lads did a lap of honour holding the Championship Trophy around the pitch in front of over 20,000 ecstatic Town fans !
What a night !!
I was there, although little did I realise this was to be but a brief encounter with the top etchelons of football...
The signs were there in the 1968/69 season when we had a late rally losing only 2 of our last 13 games and conceding only 6 goals in the process, to move up from 13th to 6th...we only let one goal in from our last 5 games and then went on to win our first 3 games in the promotion season.
The rest of the season was a dream....including a 1-0 away win at...Cardiff City.
It's nice to be back isn't it ?
4 weeks tonight...

just a run in the park ...hopefully grayson will "ramp it up" as we go through these pre season kick abouts..
get an 11 that he feels we could start with and stick with them for a couple or 3 games before the big kick off..
I hope to god jordan proves us wrong by being something other than a goalscorer..he wont score 40 goals this season, nothing anywhere near, someone else is going to have to weigh in with a good number, lets hope jordan can start "making" a few...
