interesting read

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

That's a fantastic read and makes me want to live through that season again. If only we could have some more of that freedlowing attacking football this season.

 

[Daffy Duck]

I really liked that article, and calling us "probably League One's greatest ever team"...... wow!
But then that Carlisle game was a bit special

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

With all the idiots we get from other teams on here "we're brilliant - you are rubbish" it is good to remember there are people who can appreciate what is going on at other clubs.

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Oh, and the "stutter" only happened after the Championship was won.

I think it's quite possible we will. At the start of that season we signed Casper, Calde and Paints which shored up the defence and allowed a lot more attacking impetus.

This season we have signed Kusz, Bridge and Bruno.

Nice article.

This is bull though: 'they eventually won by only three points after a late stutter to promotion'.

After the Walsall game that clinched the championship everyone knows we took our foot off the gas. Well we do anyway.

...Apologies Dick Knights Mum. I've only just seen your earlier comment. Seems like there is an echo in here

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

He certainly knows his stuff about us.

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

I enjoyed that, thanks.

League One's greatest ever? Wow.

 

[Mellotron]

League One's greatest ever? Wow.

We were VIOLATING teams that season. It became the norm to win 4-0 or 4-1.

What memories of that Carlisle game. Just home from hospital the day before after another operation with instructions to rest, not get excited and generally take it easy. Listening on the radio through the roller coaster of fortunes that made that game - ultimately to hear that extraordinary commentary on that extraordinary goal from Liam. No chance of a quiet restful afternoon to recover, I nearly burst my stitches!

Superb Albion article

We all like it when neutrals say nice things about our club, right? Then get a load of this article talking about great football league teams; in this instance our Championship winning side of 2011/12. It really is a terrific read. Penned by the fair hand of a Carlisle United fan since you ask:

True. It's still quite a statement and quite an accolade, though.

That'll learn me. Just seen the other thread. Feel free to file this one under bin whilst I slip out the back door unnoticed.
