His goals also kept us up in 97/98, lest we forget.
Come on, let's not rewrite history here.
I'm grateful for his contribution, but I'm not having it that Dunc's goals were the only thing that saved us that season, which is how I read the above statement.
He scored 11 league goals, which undoubtedly helped secure safety. But looking closely at the goals which won us points (a goal in a 2-1 win or an equaliser in a drawn game, for example, compared to goals when we lost the game anyway).
Dunc helped us gain 5-7 points that season, which obviously helped keep us up...but it wasn't the only factor. His goals contribution relating to PL points was very similar to Speed (6 points), and even Madar (5), for example, even though both of those players scored less goals that season.
