Hello and welcome to season 20. The finish line feels like it’s in sight now but what twists and turns are in the way? The first challenge is to get Man Utd back into the Premier League. We’ve cleared the decks somewhat over the summer and the rebuild starts now… Or does it? Breaking News in Manchester

August

Gary Neville as Man Utd manager writes it own headlines. He takes my seat because Crystal Palace asked for me to go back and I decided to accept.

It’s a decent start back in the palace. We win our first 3 before having a wobble. Middlesbrough are currently 2nd so are in form but the loss against Carlisle was very disappointing.

The team hasn’t changed from my year in Manchester and this was a great result away at Newcastle!

September

Only 1 win in the league which is disappointing but we do progress in the League Cup. We aren’t scoring enough and we are conceding a lot which is worrying. It might be time to break this team apart and rebuild.

October

It’s really weird at the moment. We can’t beat the teams around us but we played brilliant against 2nd placed, European chasing Everton!

Our best performance since August.

November

November is a massive for us. 15 goals scored and only 2 conceded. We progress in the League Cup as well.

This win away at City was very good. Zidane, Zanotto & Delaunay are all new signings who seem to have lifted the team.

December

Another good month. We are in 2nd place behind Arsenal, again! The loss against Leeds we had a couple of players injured and suspended but the performance was really poor!

One of my old teams are brushed aside in the FA Cup. This is a good result as Coventry are one of the top 4 fighting for the title at the moment.

January

The loss to Arsenal really puts us on the back foot again with them. We are now 9 points behind. We are in the League Cup Semi Final and the 5th round of the FA Cup so the aim is silverware this season.

February

Disaster to start the month as we crash out of the FA Cup in the 5th round and lose in the Semi Finals of the League Cup in back to back games. We do make it 3 out of 3 in the league though. We are just 1 point behind Arsenal at the top of the table.

March

2 wins and a good draw away at Everton. We are in to the business end of the season with only the league to focus on.

April

April gets off to a rocky start with a draw at Villa and a dismal loss against Swansea we then win 4 on the bounce which means we head into May with 2 games to go and a 3 point lead over Arsenal… who have a game in hand.

May

Well we win our 2 remaining games so we uphold our end of the bargain.

Did i mention how much i love Ipswich?

20 seasons. It’s taken 20 seasons for this, for us to win a top division title. This is easily the most memorable title win for me ever.
