Review
Following the previous season's mid-table position, gates at
Leeds Road drastically fell, no match recorded a crowd of more than 15,000 during the season. It wasn't helped by the dreadful start made by the Terriers, which costEddie Boot his job in earlySeptember . Town failed to win any of their first 9 matches. Tom Johnston would replace Boot and brought inJimmy Nicholson ,Tony Leighton andJohnny Quigley . But, Town's form didn't seem to completely improve until Town reachedDecember .Town's new acquisitions would help Town's form improve during the second half of the season, which would see Town lose only 3 times in the second half of the season. It would see Town finish in 8th place with 44 points, 12 points behind 2nd placed Northampton Town.
