Since we moved to Sixfields I make it,

14 Seasons in League 2
10 Seasons in League 1.

Worryingly though looking at our league one finishes they have been;

4, 22, 18, 20, 24, 14, 9, 21, 16.

Only two top half finishes makes for grim reading.



How about the past 40 years as I am pretty confident that in my supporting lifetime we've spent a fair bit longer in Div 4/3/2 whatever you want to call it? I know I waited from 1978 to 1986 for the first promotion. Sixfields may be a golden era by comparison!
My perception is that we get a nose bleed when we reach the dizzy heights of League 1.

Your memory is not betraying you.

Since we got relegated from Division 2 in 1966 - 1967 - I didn't know where to start from until the move to Sixfields it was;

6 seasons in League 1
20 seasons in League 2.

This backs up the obvious, that the move to Sixfields had a huge positive impact.

I really hope we are still clinging on when we play away at Walsall.
Even better finishing off the season at a packed out Sixfields needing a win and probably needing a couple of results go our way.
Away games at Blackpool and Bury  will finish or reignite the hope.

The big match tonight is just about to kick off. 

Are you all on the edge of your seats like me?  Or, is it just me that has a chair full of animals trying to unseat me?

We saw they were a decent team when they came and played us......slowly picking up points, a few wins and draws...pretty much mid-table form. They were 11 points behind us two months ago.......

Just looked at the table and saw that only the top three and Doncaster have conceded fewer goals than The Dale......I fancy them to escape.

I agree.  They are in a very false position.

They are currently all over Bury - as in looking for their 3rd goal, not wandering aimlessly around the town centre.  Obviously, they regard attack as the best form of defence.....  Smiley

 We can only hope that Walsall, Oldham, Wombles and the Dongs don’t pick up form. Rochdale have it in them to get out of trouble!

We have a run of winnable games, but having scored the second least goals (behind Bury) and conceded the most, how do those teams perceive us? They must be up for beating us.

We don't have winnable games, we've not won in 9. Can't see where we get two or three wins from tbh.
