The previous 2 seasons were only memorable for Town's 4th appearance in an FA Cup Final. Luckily, Clem Stephenson was on hand to turn the tide of failure back to success. There was a slight hiccup early on the season, when Alex Jackson left Leeds Road for Chelsea, just 4 games into the season. He had already scored 7 goals during the season including a hat-trick in his last match, a 6-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford.
