Dirk Gently1871 Royal I remember that we had to play 3 away games on the trot at the begining of a season once. Was the year we moved to the Mad Stad. IIRC it was because it wasn't fully ready yet.
Was that true, or am I imagining stuff again?
No, that's right - start of 98/99 season. But for that we asked the other club(s) if they minded changing the games.
I've always had this sneaky suspicion that starting out with 3 away games ruined that season for us - if we'd had a big home win early on it might have boosted confidence. Total rubbish, of course, because we were shite and going nowhere, but I still can't shake the feeling that we were robbed by lazy builders.
