Don't be silly! If we ended up eleventh we would get "we should have made tenth, tactics all wrong, doesn't know what he's doing, Barber out, sort it out Bloom".
Nearest that I can think of was 1971/72. Although not in the relegation zone, we went from mediocre mid-table to promotion in the last couple of months of the season with, I think, an unbeaten 12 match finish.
Not only that, I believe we became "famous" for the number of times that we scored in...
