They began their season with a defeat away at Shrewsbury Town. They then provided a shock during the League cup beating Championship side Nottingham Forest. They marked their first home league game of the season with a win over Stevenage F.C. The season then continued to be disappointing, eventually resulting in manager Peter Taylor leaving the club, with Peter Jackson taking charge as interim manager.

Interim manager Peter Jackson subsequently decided on a retained list, with 9 players released.
