Breakwood Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Quick question...what's the record for furthest relegation of a team that played in England's top league and who was it?Before the Premier League, you've got me.Oxford United are currently in the "Blue Square National" formerly the Conference.If you wanna be specific there are a bunch of clubs that dont even exsist anymore. But Oxford might be one of the best known candidates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshSteeler Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Quick question...what's the record for furthest relegation of a team that played in England's top league and who was it?Before the Premier League, you've got me.Oxford United are currently in the "Blue Square National" formerly the Conference.If you wanna be specific there are a bunch of clubs that dont even exsist anymore. But Oxford might be one of the best known candidates.If you mean Accrington , Glossop , Bradford PA etc these are reformed or unassociated clubs.

Viper Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 I'm just really getting into soccer, and my favorite team is Arsenal (still pissed that Henry is gone, he is my favorite player) but didn't the season just end a month ago or something? Oh well Arsenal is 1-0 so all is well so far.Well, Arsenal did look bloody awful for most of the Fulham game (couldn't finish to save their lives, very nearly gave up two own goals, and of course Lehmann's gaffe in the first minute - and this is coming from a fellow Gunners fan, mind you), but still managed to come away with three points, and without Henry no less. While they'll have to get their together quick to get a sniff of the title, they did beat a team that they should have beaten. Their repeated failure to do so last season is really what cost them the Premiership title. As long as they can keep this up consistently, and hold their own against the rest of the "Big Four", the Gunners should be fine this year, with or without Henry.

kewp80 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Liverpool won their first league opener in 5 years over Aston Villa, a beautiful free kick by Gerrard won it in the 86th minute.

He's the Joe Sakic of football!Take out the hockey reference and you may well be Andy Gray. Marseille lost by the way, 2-1, but I'm at least content that Algerian Karim Ziani scored the season's first goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedsunited Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 -9. We will rape and pillage League One. They've never seen the fortress that is Elland Road and 25k madmen singing Marching On Together in unison.The only way we're playing Bradford next season is if the FL tacks on another 15 point penalty - and i'd bet it'd still come down to the wire!

MrAsterisk Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Lyon's season looked to be off to the perfect start, winning the first league game in fine fashion after sweeping every trophy available to them in preseason. Now, not so much. Unfortunately, Marseille haven't the firepower to capitalize. And Kim Kallstrom will have no problem filling Malouda's shoes; don't worry about that.And speaking of all the raping and pillaging, don't know if anyone watched it, but Bremen 0 - 4 Bayern. Incredible counter-attacking by Bayern for the middle two goals; the first was a penalty, the last a marvelous shot by late substitute Andreas Ottl that caught the Bremen defense off guard.

MrAsterisk Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Boy, did this thread die.Anyways, all the dominoes have fallen, and overnight "it" (many its, in fact) finally happened. Chelsea solved their right back crisis bringing in Brazilian Beletti from Barcelona. This signals the end of their interest in Daniel Alves for the time being. Moving the other direction at Stamford Bridge was Arjen Robben, for whom Real Madrid have finally had their bid accepted, and Gabriel Heinze is now a Galactico as well. Phew.And Kasey Keller was bought by Fulham. That makes four Americans and an Algerian, so they may have a new supporter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
