Progress – Rams points and positions

Since Nigel Clough was first appointed, the stated aim has always been year on year progress. Although this hasn’t been completely linear, this seasons 10th finish was the best yet – even though our points tally wasn’t high as 2011/12. Difficult to get your head around? Take a look at our handy graph to get an idea of how we’ve done since Nigel took the reins. The graph begins with Nigel’s first half season.

So some progress over the years. However, if you want a sobering thought – the three relegated sides in 2008/9 were Norwich, Southampton and Charlton. We all know where Norwich and Soton are now and even Charlton finished above us this season somehow. Who says you don’t have to go backwards to go forwards?
