I believe things would have been so different, if we had (and should have, remember) beaten Lincoln in the first game.
After that despite some promising performances, but little reward, we had matches like Morecambe which was the first nail in the coffin for Dean Austin. And then there was Mansfield ....
KC was brought in to keep us up, and at least he succeeded but let's be honest the football was poor. At times KC mystified us with some of his team selections and tactics.
As for next season who knows what is in store for us .....
I think losing against Cheltenham and Port Vale put paid to our PO chances. Not all the football was poor; it was inconsistent tho’! We seemed to play better away than at home with the Crewe result indicating we could play when the mood/mentality was right!
