ontariored Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) Apart from being in Division 1 {Premier} for a blink of the eyelid to being in the lowest division for a short spell, nothing much really. The world has changed. Humans have walked on the moon; the music world changed with an Elvis and one can ask Alexa any question and be assured of an answer while sat anywhere on the Karzee. However, our team is in the same spot every year, same ground, with similar talent, albeit with different formation, running down the same wings, depressed or unhappy we aren't going up. And we sing the same song about a wee bird with a red chest, which we all get excited about. How many people jump off an infamous bridge?

Pezo Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 You could say all teams have got better at an equal rate so we are a lot better just not in comparison to other clubs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City played on the third tier for much of that decade, and were inferior to Rovers for some of it. Now we're pretty cemented in the second tier and are chasms apart from the Fewers. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon bristol Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 Ive been going for nearly 40 years, and weve come close to the top flight once in that time, thats 1/3 of the clubs history now.

Port Said Red Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 We were in the top flight for 4/5 years, thats more than many clubs have managed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralphindevon Posted October 4, 2021 Report Share Posted October 4, 2021 When the Premier League started everyone thought it would become an elite club for the rich clubs only. 29 years later a staggering 49 clubs have played in it……but not us. 50 sounds a nice round number 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we were top flight for a period around the start of the 20th century, too, certainly around our sole FA Cup final appearance. Obviously no one alive now who saw it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinatra was even quoted as saying he rarely saw him take a drink away from the stage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searching the internet, past, less known, supporting acts all said the same thing years after DM's death. Engelbert Humperdink joked about the same thing during his Hawaii concert in 2018.
