    I know brb will accuse me of having too much time on my hands, I have just noticed something which I've clearly missed before.
    Championship win in 1963/4...............won 23...drawn 14...lost 9.
    Championship win in 2012/3...............won 23...drawn 14...lost 9.

    It's a funny old game. :emoticon-0142-happy

    Just to make it stranger.
    in 1963/4 we scored a total of 59 goals,
    our goal difference in that year was + 29,
    and in 2012/3 we conceded 39 goals,
    we scored 66 which if multiplied and divided by 4 = 9,
    and if you take 2012/3...............won 23...drawn 14...lost 9. add all the numbers 201232314 and minus 9 = 9.

    and even stranger...I'm now 9 minutes late leaving for the pub on my way to the match.

    I might have tempted fate with all this 9 malarkey, Bradford scored in the 19th minute. <doh>

    Scored by none other than Dominic Poleon who's name contains an anagram of nine!
