Picking up just one win and three draws out of the 21 regular season matches, the Knights finished at the bottom of the table, 20 points behind 7th placed Melbourne Victory.
Their joint leading scorers were Englishman Simon Yeo and teenage whizkid Jeremy Brockie, with four apiece.
Sean Devine scored three goals, while Joshua Rose, Jeremy Christie, Neil Emblen and Xiaobin Zhang all managed to find the back of the net once.
By the end of the season though, he had become a regular starter, scoring a brilliant double at home against the Newcastle Jets.
This was followed up by a fantastic strike to earn a draw with Sydney FC, and a goal in the Knights' final game of the season, versus Melbourne Victory.
