Watching the Albion

[Merseyside Seagull]

Having watched the Albion for over 30 years, I was wondering whether there was any other club in the league, where oer that period of time, you could have watched a team play in all 4 divisions, play off semi final and final and every round of the FA cup.

Probably not. That's all!!

Cardiff City?

 

[Blackadder]

Cardiff haven't been in the top division for some time. Definitely not 30 years.

Wimbledon must be close. (Play- offs?)

 

[bhaexpress]

Fulham for a start, Bradford City for another and the Huddersfield and Bristol City. I think the two Sheffield clubs and Pompey as well.

Oh and Swindon while I think about it.

 

[Gully]

Watford...definitely all four divisions and an FA Cup Final...not sure about the play-offs though.

they beat the mighty leeds at cardiff 2 or 3 seasons ago. that donkey henderson (should've stayed at the big club) scored a penalty.

Oh and Swindon while I think about it.

swindon - fa cup?
fulham - 30 cup final in last thirty years?
hudds - top flight and cup final?
brizzle - cup final?
sheff weds - no sure they've been div. 4
sheff u - cup final?

Sunderland maybe have done it! weren't they in the fourth in the mid eighties?

Sorry just read the divisions bit, have to work today ! Weds have been in Div 4 though. Hudds have been in the top flight too.

 

[Gully]

Weds have been in div 4, definitely, I think they may have been promoted out of it the same season as Watford...and possibly Brentford.

 

[Icy Gull]

Portsmouth have certainly been in all 4 divisions, been in every round of the cup but I don't think they've been in the playoffs?

Thinking may hurt Frank...

they lost in the play offs semis in about 93 (?) guy whittingham and TVS bumming them, i remember watching it on tv.

 

[Perry Milkins]

Apart from all those teams none other can say that they have watched their team in all 4 divisions blah blah..unless they built aquaducts that is..

 

[Gully]

So, the general consensus is Brighton, Pompey and Watford.

 

[Peter Grummit]

No not Pompey in playoff final. I thought just Sheff Utd not Wednesday were in the bottom division?
PG

can somebody look into sunderland, i can't be bothered see.

 

[house your seagull]

ah i have just checked, no they haven't - only the third - in which they spent one season only and won the championship 87-88

 

[Gully]

Don't think Sunderland have ever played in the bottom division, think they only ever had one season in the third tier (87/88)...they came down with us the previous season and we both went straight back up again.

 

[drew]

However, don't believe any other club mentioned has been involved in a game of death and finished 91st two seasons running!

 

[SurreySeagulls]

How about the mighty Wolves, well my mate likes um.

Been in all four divisions, FA Cup and won the Play offs
