Ashley Ward provided a physical presence in the attacking line, while Dean Sturridge proved a clinical finisher, ending the season as the side's top league scorer. Puma manufactured this away kit, which featured the Panda sponsor on the front. Jim Smith managed the team as they adjusted to the intensity of Premier League football at the Baseball Ground.
