Quoted from Jarmo.Is.God
I think we as fans, should just enjoy the remaining 11 games with basically 1% chance of relegation, and maybe 10% chance of play-offs being realistic.

It's a good time to sit back and relax at BP, enjoy the football MJ has produced, and just enjoy being able to watch our team again.

Then next season, we go again!

Yep. We haven't had a "normal" season in quite a while. Last year was a dogfight, the one before we had three different managers and then it was back to back to back to back playoff campaigns. I'm really enjoying feeling comfortable and not having expectations for the end of this season.

I agree we need to be realistic, and I would always advise trying to enjoy the football, but I'd hate to think a more laid back attitude transmits itself to the pitch. With 12 games to go and (effectively) 8 points adrift there's still a lot of hope.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Short answer: No

Longer answer: there have been 30 seasons when three of the four have been in the same division:

Town, Lincoln and Hull have all been in the same division for 11 seasons (1905-08, 1909-10, 1912-15, 1919-20, 1933-34 in div 2, 1961-62 and 1978-79 in div 3).

Town, Lincoln and Scunthorpe have all been in the same division for 9 seasons (1951-2 in div 3(N), 1958-59 in div 2, 1968-72 and 1988-90 in div 4, 2004-5 in league 2).

Town, Hull and Scunthorpe have all been in the same division for 2 seasons (1964-66 in div 3).

Lincoln, Hull and Scunthorpe have all been in the same division for 8 seasons (1959-60 in div 2, 1983-84 in div 3, 1996-98 and 2000-2004 in "new" div 3).

And before anyone else points it out, yes, I should get out more.


Maybe a typo Mike but 78-79 we were in Division 4 ( promoted under John Newman with George Kerr as the assistant )

Blimey, someone actually read what I typed? You're quite right of course and I can't see where that error has come from. Of course, that means you probably shouldn't trust the rest of it either...
