Regular users of the site will know we like to pull the legs of Iron fans once a year.
We took a year off in 2006 - though anyone suggesting a title challenge this season would have suggested we were April Fool's - but in 2005 we told you how Glanford Park would be renamed the Jeep Car Park in a sponsorship deal.
Other commitments saw us miss 2004, but in 2003 we revealed how then Iron manager Brian Laws planned to adopt a black and white striped kit to help the players pick out each other.
And a year earlier we had exclusive details of a plan to save then-crisis-club Lincoln City - merging with Scunthorpe to form North Lincolnshire United.
