To be honest, Woods’ problem wasn’t so much losing games as not winning them. His loss ratio is is actually one of our best in the last 20 or 30 years.

Here’s a bit of trivia for you. Since Bill Shankly left in 1954, which permanent Town manager has lost the lowest percentage of his games in charge? Clue: it’s probably not who you’d think.

That Woods team certainly found some creative ways to draw games they should have won and lose games they should have drawn.

Judging by recent revelations, probably something to do with double-vision or the DTs!

Aye, the aforementioned Bradford game was one of a run of 7 draws in 8 away games (5 of them goalless).

I remember the game unfortunately, bloody cold day and a crap match from both sides.

I was there, but I remember virtually nothing from the game. I actually thought we lost the game 1-0 after Rob Atkinson brought down Michael Boulding but it turns out that was actually the previous year and we lost 2-0.

According to Soccerbase records It was 24 games without a win which included 1 FA Cup game (a loss at home to Bath City) and 1 JP Trophy game (away to Leeds) so 22 league games without a win.

The last win before that run was a JP Trophy game against Hartlepool and before that there were three League losses so taking it on League games alone it was a run of 25 games without a win.

I had in my head 25 league games (yep, it was) - but 5 Newell and 20 Woods (plus Woods had the 2 cup games mentioned)
