It was a long hard slog this season, but unfortunately the Imps once against finished bottom of the League and this time was almost as bad as the last. City last finished bottom of the league two years ago when Francis Green's efforts were shocking to say the least, and this year it was Dany N'Guessan who's less than convincing performance saw us finish bottom.
Two years ago was the first time that City finished bottom of the table on Soccer Night. The ITV show ran a "Load of Balls" competitions in which a player from each club had to put a ball into the net from various positions. Francis Green's 4 minutes and 13 seconds was the worst by a long way, although almost half of that came because of penalties for the ball being thrown back to him.
Two years on and Dany N'Guessan has again seen City fail miserably at the show's season long competition. This time is was "Heads and Volleys" and to say Dany wasn't very good is an understatement. He gained just two points in the minute allotted to him, whereas virtually every other side managed over 10 points.
The competition was played weekly with a new team from the Yorkshire and Lincolnshire region taking part each time. Hull City won it with 17 points, Mansfield came in with 15, Leeds with 13, whilst Grimsby, Wednesday and Bradford all had 11.
