How many teams have had THREE successive relegations. Unilkely as it might be they maybe heading that way if they don't buck their ideas up soon.

I think Bristol City and Wolves may have done quite a while ago but not sure if anyone's gone from League 1 to Confererence North/South in successive seasons.

Luton also had 3 successive relegations (including of course, the infamous -30 points season).

As for League 1 to Conference North, the only club getting close to that 'achievement' that I can think of is Stockport, who managed 3 relegations out of 4.

Not 3 promotions or relegations consecutively though.

On the way up they spent 2 seasons in both Div 3 and Div 2 and on the way down had 2 seasons in Div 3.

Didn't Bradford when they dropped from The Premiersh*t to League 2 ?

They didn't go down to the 4th Division. They went down to the 3rd Division and then went back up to the 2nd Division a few seasons later.

Quoted from Harry Haddock
Martin Allen is a relegation specialist. It's all he knows.


Last season was Martin Allen's first relegation as a manager. And considering how late he took over & how far adrift they were when he arrived, he did a great job to only get relegated on goal difference.

How we managed to stay up was a miracle in the same way that Chesterfield survival would have been a miracle. Michael Nelson looks past it and Jalal in goal was dreadful Tuesday night. He got rounded twice and his error for the third was unforgivable. They have a squad made up of mainly league players who think they just have to turn up.

You can't help look at their current situation and wonder how easily it could have been us.

Does our 4 league demotion count? That was grim, going from playing the likes of Wrexham away to bloody Whitley Bay.
