Nicked this idea off a thread on facebook and have amended it slightly (mods please delete this thread if it’s already been done)
— Best signing — Worst signing — Worst selling — Best manager — Worst manager — Best moment — Worst moment — Best goal

— Best signing - James McKeown — Worst signing - Serge Makofo — Worst selling Not necessarily a sold player but releasing Padraig Amond after promotion back to the football league — Best manager Paul Hurst, for getting us back into the league — Worst manager - Russell Slade. His appointment and subsequent losing streak almost got us relegated back to the conference. — Best moment - Easy, conference play off final, 2016. Even if it was at least a year too late. — Worst moment - relegation out of the football league, 2010 — Best goal - Nathan Arnold, conference playoff final 2016. Not technically the best goal but for pure emotion it wins it for me.

I expect there’ll be a lot of similar answers in this thread, but, perhaps controversially, for me the penalty shootout defeat to Bristol Rovers hurt more than relegation in 2010.
In my heart of hearts I knew we deserved to go down, but that play-off final defeat felt so unjust.

That's spot on - no pun intended - totally crushing to lose on pens like that, and weirdly inevitable after that incompetent tw@t Joyce didn't send their keeper off

Haha, maybe he'll be lenient as it's New Year... and we might be getting Ollie, and... oh well, probably not, I await my deserved criticism for daring to bring this up!

— Best signing Omar Bogle ( not necessarily the best player but his goals helped us back into the league and we sold him on for a substantial profit)
— Worst signing So many but for the expectation we had and the flop he turned out to be - Charles Ademeno
— Worst selling Not a sale but letting Podge go..... a genuine fans' favourite who the board & management should have fought to keep
— Best manager Paul Hurst ( if only because he brought us promotion and some hope getting back in the league)
— Worst manager Neil Woods
— Best moment Nathan Arnold sealing it. Still sends shivers down my spine now when I see the build up, the goal and his and our celebrations
— Worst moment Final whistle at Burton. I couldn't believe our board, management and team had let us down so badly
— Best goal Nathan Arnold's Wembley goal ( closely followed by Jamille Matt's winner vs Notts County to seal our FL status )

— Best signing - toughie this, probably Podge, without his goals who knows where we would be. — Worst signing - Far too many to mention. I think for lack of effort more than ability probably Dixon or Kelly of Slade II. Welsh was a bit of a disaster as well. — Worst selling - Probably should not have sold Bogle. Yes the money was nice but it was wasted. With Bogle we might have had a good crack at the playoffs that season. — Best manager - Got to be Hurts. No real competition. — Worst manager - Again Slade would take some beating. — Best moment - Thinking the takeover was going through this summer. — Worst moment - Realising said takeover was not going through. — Best goal - For importance the Podge penalty. For satisfaction Arnold and for quality any of Connell's goals.
