What's going on?
Last year: the lowdown
Team of the year: 1. Wycombe. 2. Rotherham. 3. Millwall.
Footballer of the year: 1. Darren Caskey (Reading). 2. Martin Butler (Reading). 3. Jamie Cureton (Reading).
Goal of the year: Jamie Forrester (Northampton v Brentford): Stunning 20-yard lob volley on the opening day of the season. Brilliant technique.
Moment of the year: Wycombe reaching the semi-finals of the FA Cup.
Best manager: 1. Moore (Rotherham). 2. Sanchez (Wycombe). 3. Preece (Bury).
Best chairman: John Majedski.
Find of the year: 1. James Hayter (Bournemouth). 2. Nathan Ellington (Bristol Rovers). 3. Tom Youngs (Cambridge).
Best business: Reading snapping up Jamie Cureton for just £250,000; Rotherham getting Robins on a free.
Worst business: Brentford losing top-scorer Andy Scott to Oxford United!
Best atmosphere at kick-off: Walsall.
Best goalkeeping performance: 1. Gary Kelly (Oldham v Stoke). 2. Kevin Dearden (Peterborough v Wrexham). 3. Martin Taylor (Liverpool v Wycombe).
Worst outfield performance (by a landslide): Brian Wilsterman (Rotherham v Wrexham) And he still scored! Was released in May.
Best chant: 'WE ONLY NEED TEN MEN!' (Wrexham-Rotherham, FA Cup).
Prat of the year: Paul Alcock (A ‘Premiership’ referee who’s too quick dishing out cards).
Breath of fresh air: 1.Wycombe Wanderers proving there’s still magic in the FA Cup. 2. Rotherham proving money isn’t all that gets you out of this division. 3. Luton going down and taking Kennilworth Road with them.
Weirdest game: Reading 4 Oxford 3 – a derby Reading made particular hard work of but it’s in just for the absolute clanger by ex-Oxford ‘keeper Phil Whitehead – you must have seen it! (They Think It’s All Over?)
Funniest manager: 1. John Hollins. 2. Andy Ritchie. 3. Barry Fry.
Best comeback from injury: Nicky Forster (Reading). Out nearly all season and made a massive impact in the last couple of matches.
Biggest cock-up: Bearing in mind I’ve already mentioned Phil Whitehead (Reading v Oxford): 1. Bristol Rovers selling Cureton. 2. Wigan getting through managers like Sunday dinners. 3. Port Vale’s first half of the season/Northampton second half.
Friendliest club: 1. Wycombe. 2. Oldham. 3. Northampton.

Worst prediction by myself: Rotherham to go down!
Player to follow in 2001-2002: 1. Earnshaw (Cardiff). 2. Zamorra (Brighton). 3. Trundle (Wrexham).
Biggest hopes for 2001-2002: 1. Wrexham to win promotion. 2. Oxford to get a new ground. 3. The Bloomfield Road development to be completed.

Worst programme: Rotherham.
