Quoted from RichMariner
In 97/98 we finished third, on 72 points from 46 games, and won the play-offs (as if anyone can forget).

We scored 55 goals in the league that season.

We've scored 55 goals this season already, and we've still got 7 games to play. It's likely we'll also surpass 72 points from just 44 games (or at least we should, if we want to finish in the top 7).

Obviously the cup runs in 97/98 season added to that sense of greatness, but in general our performance overall in the league this season has been on par with results in 97/98, if not better.

Clearly no one wants us playing at this level, losing to the likes of Solihull etc, but you know, in 97/98 we had good League 1 players in League 1. This season we have good National League players playing in the National League. It's all relative.


But we were not playing the likes of Dover in 97/98 who we have score1 in 6 of goals against this year. Instead we were playing Fulham Watford  Bristol City Burnley etc etc

Like he said though, it's all relative.
