Not sure. Just before that massive dive bomb 3 seasons ago? May be 4? We were getting result that put us near the top 6 .
Last season under mark robins . The team looked good players that had been underperformaning under other managers looked good (baker). Outside chance of the playoff for the first time ever and one round from wembley. As soon as he left we have just dived bomed to the lowest point the club has ever been

Agree with this, when we had mcgoldrick and robins I was looking towards the top of the table rather than the bottom, when they left it all went to pot

Same for me
i agree last year with mcgoldrick and robins it was the best ive seen in years then our owners couldnt get the money out to sign mcgoldrick this is the reason robins left and the chances of us going up if they would of invested in him i think we wouldnt be in the mess we are now

The last time any of us had any optimism
a little chink of light that was soon snuffed out when SiSu lied to Robins and he walked

Mine was in the run-up to PAs announcing Otium were preferred bidder.
I felt with 4 (including 2 mystery) bidders - we were highly valued as a prospect. New ideas & solutions, a new feel-good attitude & culture coming in at the top that would immediately begin to cascade down & throughout the club. Excitement as everyone rallied to the cause.
Instead I feel let down. Just left with the same old situation of being demoralised & digging in for yet another die-hard type season with a "let's go down fighting" approach.

I was optimistic when we came down to League One. I thought we can get out of this league at first time of asking. Things looked up when we got McGoldrick firing in shit loads. Robins had the team performing and I though we can do this. Then things went very Tits up!
And here we are today. Screwed!

Away at Sheff Utd in FA Cup quarter final, winning 1-0 with only a couple of minutes left and then the ball went out for a Utd corner.......

The season after we dropped from the Premiership, till about 25-30 games in when it all fell apart & the instant promotion fallacy died.

I really believed then as well, was so convinced we were going to Wembley.

Yes me too. Soaking up the atmosphere of a full stadium. Promotion charge on, Wembley in touching distance... All gone in a few weeks.
