Ramifications Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Just wanted to know, what is our lowest league position of all time? This is only for curiosity, I think Liam and the team are doing fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramifications Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 Cheers. But I was wondering if you knew the answer on any given week? Reason being, when we were 13th place last week wasn't it? I thought, maybe this could be the lowest position we have ever been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well when there were only 12 teams you could suggest we were very good or very bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think we have ever been in Div 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is going to care we were 13th in September, it’ll be about where we are at the end of the season. Rammy03 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is going to care we were 13th in September, it’ll be about where we are at the end of the season. It’s a fair point though, just an interesting fact or observation. It won’t matter either way. in our brief stints in the third tier, has there ever been a time where we’ve lost the first game of the season, for example, and sat in 17th or something? Or was 13th, as temporary as it may be, the lowest we’ve ever been. Ramifications 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foreveram Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I cant give you a direct answer but in the 84/85 season when we finished 7th, after 9 games we had 11 points, 3 less than we have now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost the opening game in 84/85 1-0 at Bournemouth but to be honest back then nobody bothered with league tables till at least 6 games in. Incidentally the other 3 opening games when we were in the third tier we won all 3 with an aggregate score of 12-3 TigerTedd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love stats like this, even when they are largely meaningless. But it's fine and reasonable that you're not interested.

What does it matter that we had a fantastic evening out in Leeds in 2019, when our very next day out was pretty crap? What does it matter that our very own Branko Strupar scored the first Prem goal of this millennium? What does it matter what the score line was for the 1903 FA Cup final? One winner, one loser. The score line is immaterial! etc... etc... Ramifications and Carl Sagan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
