I'm not a big believer in second season syndrome - how many times has it actually happened? Only Hull, Reading, Ipswich and Bradford spring to mind in the last 15ish seasons (45 promoted clubs) - surely first season syndrome is more common!
I'd completely forgotten about that match - and it looks incredibly significant in hindsight! At the time I've got to admit I'd more or less let go of the autos given our run!
