At the end of last season we set a target of a 6th place finish, that was well documented, and its created conjecture. But following the accelerated acquisition strategy and the activity of the club in the summer transfer window the new target that the playing staff agreed with the board for the 2009/10 season was 70 points. THE TRAJECTORY of recent results was below this requirement and the board felt that there was no evidence that the situation would fundamentally change as quoted in the chairman’s statement. The owner the chairman and myself all worked to give mark any resources that he might require to achieve that goal.

Updated Stats Post Fulham Away game.
Looking very achievable now IMO. 27 Points possible and still 17 needed to hit that target set by Mr.Cook and his team. A Possible Stat could be 5 more wins and a couple of draws.
