Keepers Ball Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 Just looked at our history of the past 60 years and came across a worrying stat. Apart from the glory years of the mid 60's and 70's , Bristol City have never spent more than 5 seasons in the second tier of the football league, going down to the 3rd in the process 1955-60 1990-95 1998 And more worryingly this is our 5th season !!!!

Economou Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 The only time in recent history we've stayed in 2nd tier for a long period of time was when the chairman kept faith with the manager ie. Alan Dicks. I'd imagine he was unpopular with the fans after a few disappointing seasons however he kept his job and the club reaped rewards eventually. I believe Gary Johnson could have done a Dicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
