The 50 year cut off is a bit odd. If it was changed to 100 years our Underachiever Rating would be even higher!

Shows how far we have fallen Exhibit 92929274684

I'm not sure why MK dons are in there, as it's supposed to be based on at least 15 years of football. They only paid for their league place ten years ago.

Nice to see us higher up the table than Scunthorpe. When's the last time that actually happened?

Certainly would.

It's strange though as we seem to be allergic to the 3rd tier of English football having only stayed there one season, the last 5 times we have been at that level.

We won the 3rd tier title in 1979/80 having been promoted the previous season, then spent only 1 season there in 1987/88 on our way back down to the 4th tier. We then went up again in 1990/91 having been runners up in Division Four the season before. We were then relegated back to the 3rd tier in 96/97 but bounced straight back up and then most recently passed straight through the division in 2003/04 on our way back down.

What would I give now for 1 season in the 3rd tier though.

Agree with you there Les

Although there's one troll on here giving out a red cross so assume they don't seem to agree with you liking the idea of a season in League 1

Surprised the cut off wasn't 1992, SkySports can't seem to see past that year...
