1962 - Oxford enters the league at the expense of Accrington Stanley</p> 2006 - Accrington Stanley enters the league at the expense of Oxford.</p>
Just to be pedantic (would you expect anything else) Accrington finished top so replace the bottom side Rushden & Diamonds. Oxford will be replaced by the playoff winners. i.e. if it was only 1 up and 1 down then Accrington would still be going up but Oxford wouldn't be coming down.
Unbelievable our pedant is wrong To be really pedantic Acrington Stanley resigned from the league mid season due to financial problems. So they didnt actually "finish" bottom.
RE: Unbelievable our pedant is wrong But they were replaced by Oxford which was my point. Oxford are not, strictly speaking, being replaced by Accrington, I don't believe that I mentioned that Accrington were relegated! Have that! ff
hang on so the point is all that is important Not the total correctness of the post in all respects ff
RE: hang on so the point is all that is important Well point out where I said that Accrington were relegated and I will retract!
Girls please ! 'Twas but a simple observation about the two teams coincidentally changing fortunes with each other after 44 years.</p> Don't overdo it please!</p>
