Which Season Was Better?; 03/04 or 09/10

So we've just had a fantastic season and gained our highest ever league position! Awesome!

Just wondered whether you guys felt this season was out best or was it back in 03/04??

I just did some research and back then we finished 10th, a position lower than last season but we scored the same amount of points: 50pts

Last season we won 13 games (8 home, 5 away), in 03/04 we also won 13 games (8 home, 5 away)

Last season we lost 14 games (2 home, 12 away, in 03/04 we only lost 12 games (6 home, 6 away)

Last season we scored 38 and conceded 47 (GD -9), in 03/04 we scored 43 and conceded 48 (GD -5)

Last season we were 20 points behind the 4th placed side, in 03/04 we were only 10 behind



So if you look at the stats, 03/04 was marginally better! However I think the fact last season was the first after promotion and a low budget, i'd probably sway to last year as the better of the two, but not by much as we were far more consistent in 03/04, but we didn't get anything close to the 12 game unbeaten run!

I prefer 03/04 for two obvious reasons.

The football was better.
We never lost to Villa.

9/10 season , we were realy dreadfull football wise in 03/04. If itwasnt for the Forse we would have been relagated, last season we were quite comfortable in most matches.

The older prem seasons were the best. The atmospheres we created were insane. Just a joy to behold.

Far better kit and a better support then I reckon. But on the negative side we had the worst manager in the club's history.

Now now... :copno:

Quite harsh considering he got us promoted to the prem in the first place. Lets just say he really should have left on a high in 2004.

In 03/04 the football was so drab. Only the virtuosity of Forssell stood out. Hoofball.

03/04 was simply better not because of the football tho..

But because of the atmosphere, and the way we made St Andrews the most intimidating ground in the country **thumbup

Didnt matter what the football was like or who we were playing, us bluenoses were defintetly the 12th man back then, worth going to St Andrews just to be part of it..

Now we have boring football and a s**t atmosphere..

Where did it all go wrong?
