Default Battery question

Just a quickie , my battery had about 5.9 volts on it when trying to turn engine over , the batterys about 3 months old , but basically i thought i had an alternator problem and maybe still do getting 14.2 volts direct from alternator ? cleaned all terminals etc , everything looks great ,

Now took my battery out and was charging for about 18 hours or so and now its back in car , but could there be a chance it is now weak ? my fans are trying to come on but cant ? as soon as i put jump leads on to my batt the fans fire up as per normal with the tempreature etc ?

Could my battery be knackered even though its just been charged ? answers on a postcard please ? this is doing my nut man

Help appreciated by one pi$$ed of cosworth owner

My hearts telling me change the battery and my heads telling me to change the car lol
