Relegated again, it's ok though, they will walk league 1 for sure this time...

And they took the piss out of us mercilessly when we were relegated.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

To be fair they did say they'd get out of the Championship at the first attempt.
My problem is reconciling my gross behaviour with my net income.

two consecutive declines. Incredible.
is there a precedent of teams that have relegated two consecutive leagues?
Is there any antecedent that they were later promoted?
I hope my questions will be understood.

Jesus Christ I see they’re relegated and it’s hilarious considering some of their fans are absolute idiots... but you have the same mindset as those morons.

Luton dropped like a stone but that was because of financial problems.

Pretty sure Yeovil went Championship to League One to League Two not that long ago.

If I remember rightly Northampton Town were promoted with us to Division 1 in 1964/65 and after one season in the top flight suffered 3 relegations in 4 seasons ending up in Division 4 by 1968/69.

I guess you all remember that! <whistle>

Not sure how accurate, but just goes to show how fortunate we were and how things could have been...
