yes & no

We engaged in full-on petting with relegation that season, but only from a position of mid-table security.

Our league form from March onwards went:
D L L W L L L L L L D L

And, never forget, the following last-day results would have sent us down:
Coventry @ Villa, a draw or win
Leeds 7 - 0 Norwich
Notts Co 0 - 8 Luton

This is why, on our bench that day, was a sub GK.
Just in case.

100 pts for anyone who can name that sub GK ?
