We've all been singing about Ricky taking us to the premier league since Pards bought him from Bristol Rovers, but now he has effectively done it (with a lot of notable support from the rest of the team) I am curious, When did you actually believe what you were singing? For me I think it was around October when we were top of the league and Mr Lambert had proven he could cut it in the Championship.
I don't know about him single handedly taking us up, but I always knew he'd do well in the NPC. So much to his game, the best £1M signing ever. I thought we'd do well this season, but we have done far better than I had imagined. A great collective. Fasure.
Late November, and then again in February. Until the first point, I was ecstatic given our start, but we weren't running away with the league...a bad two or three game stretch and we'd be in the playoffs, any more and we'd potentially be falling out of the top six. When we extended the lead to eight points, I started to believe. When we overcame a bit of a December/January wobble and remained in the top two despite several difficult games, I became convinced that we had what was necessary.
