How many relegations have you endured?

This is my third (not counting that tortuous season with Cumberworth Under 13s).

 

Sadly, I've seen one more relegation for The Reds than I've seen promotions - and I've seen five promotions.

 

five for me
was one of yours into div 3 north?

 

2 relegations and 1 promotion.

 

2 promotions (96/97, 05/06) and 3 relegations (97/98, 01/02, 13/14)

 

My 7th relegation - 6 Promotions.

 

Four in total, in 47 years of watching. One of those was from the Premiership, which I think doesn't count, so that's about 1 relegation every 16 years or so. Not a bad record for a club with no dosh, must have been some very good management in there for most of the time.

That means I'll be 75 before we get relegated again.

Also seen 5 promotions, all of which count, so over the years it's 5 - 3 to the promotions. Could be worse.

 

1997/98
2001/02
2013/14

On the contrary, promotion in 1996/97 and 2005/06. First started watching in 1988.

 

No. The first relegation was 1959 from Div 2 to Div 3 - I think they'd just changed from 2 x regional Div 3 to Divs 3 and 4.

The other relegations were. 1965 (to Div 4); 1972 (to Div 4); 1998 (to Div 1); 2002 (to Div 2); plus this season.

On the happier note: promotions were: 1968 (to Div 3) when we were invincible at Oakwell; 1979 (to Div 3) under Clarke; 1981 (to Div 2) under Hunter; 1997 an event I never thought would happen in my lifetime; and 2006 at the Millenium with the best four penalties in a row I've seen from The Reds

 

Same ^

 

every one since 1960... dunno how many that is

no doubt some one will tell me.

 

ahh yes your right
saw the 65 one but couldn't remember too much tbh. then all the others after relegations and promotions.
talking to my dad last year and can't remember whether he said we had been relegated to div3 north once or twice. will ask him on monday. he's been watching since 46

 

Re: every one since 1960... dunno how many that is

same as me see above

 

Four Promotions: 78/79, 80/81, 96/97, 05/06

Three relegations: 97/98, 01/02, 13/14

So I'm winning 4-3. And to be honest, I don't really think of 97/98 as a relegation season, it was an amazing experience. Although 05/06 wasn't much of a promotion season either. The play-offs were brilliant, but the rest of the season? meh. There were many seasons in what is now The Championship during the 80s and 90s that I enjoyed far, far more than that promotion season.

 

4 promotions, starting with the 1979 promotion under Clarke.

3 relegations.

 

so that means

4 promotions too

 

I enjoyed the 99/00 play off season more than the 05/06 one. Think we had about 4 or 5 players all get into double figures goal wise. Hit Portsmouth for 6, Blackburn for 5 and had a few more 3 n 4 goal routs. Plus that day at Wembley no matter how bitter/sweet it was was an amazing experience

 

You got your timing right !

 

3rd for me.
