Fewest prem wins in a season, most consecutive games without a win (which we can still extend), most pl defeats in a season, fewest goals in a PL season, most goals conceded in PL season, worst goal difference and fewest clean sheets were all set or equalled by us in that season.

Equal heaviest F A Cup Final loss with Watford. First English team to get banned from Europe. Only team to ever let the greatest English manager the game has known walk away. I'm flat out depressing myself now. Champions to third division in 9 years? ('75 to '84). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the answer btw.... Perhaps it's unprecedented! We scored 7 against Southend in the league cup... but didn't concede seven 1990-91- We conceded 6 against Chelsea and 7 against Liverpool, but scored 6 against Southampton and Sunderland. Pretty close. Do I win a signed and lightly soiled Kenny Burns jockstrap as a booby prize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob The Badger Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 We were also (I'm 95% sure) the first team to apply to have a sponsor on their shirt but were refused. @Sith Happens - Yeh it was the early 70s' and it was an accounting issue. I *think* it may have had something to do with a transfer or two - Terry Hennessey rings a bell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So less money going through the books. Whisper that in case the EFL give us a retrospective points deduction. Bob The Badger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamNut Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Get it right lads. it was irregularities in the books and something to do with payments to Dave Mackay associated with his column in the programme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I thought it was attendances as well, but that may have been part of the accounting irregularities. Anyway we still won another trophy on the back of being disqualified and a positive first when we won the Watney Cup, which I believe was the first sponsored football competition.

The ‘consolation’ of not being in Europe was that we were allowed to enter the Watney Cup, a glorified pre season friendly tournament which was played on a group basis followed by a semi & final We became inaugural winners of the tournament by beating Man U (with Charlton, Law, Best etc) 4-1 in the final at the BBG Gee SCREAMER !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
