Maybe in the top flight , because of all the hype that follows this club at the moment , sure there's been worse seasons than this though, can remember some seasons in the early eighties in div2 that weren't totally joyous, remember a season with Allan Mullery in charge where most of the squad didn't get on with him, that was first div though

I guess your right as I don't really remember the eighties, I was actually referring since we dropped down in 1995/6 season.
The problem this season is the huge adverse effect on our reputation. When we came up with Warnock, we were genuinely well liked and most football fans of other clubs were happy to see us back. Our absence from the premier league was filled with a time when football had moved on for all the wrong reasons, average footballers on £50k p/w, genuine fans being priced out, games being scheduled around TV schedules, Chelsea winning the title, Jose school bully approach to football management being the rave, Utd refusing to attend the FA cup and instead sit on a beach in Brazil thus undermining the glorious cup for ever.... However we were different, we represented everything football use to be like.
Other clubs fans loved us coming back with our perfect ground that flooded back memories of days when football was a passion not a business, 4 year plan made other fans jealous of how our club was a way of life than a corporation, seeing our kit flooded back memories of the halcyon days of SB and RM gliding the hallow turf of LR, we also came up with a team of grafters who had passion for the badge....genuine effection ....but now no one cares we have gone down, not a tear shed...massive debts, overrated but underperforming players lured to us purely by massive and long contracts, transfer dealings that made no logical sense, allegations of rule breaking....completely chaotic, as soon as we went up talk of not what was great about our club but instead a 40k stadium with a stage was suddenly what defined us. We became like the Wild West where we ran off to the hills but only found fools gold...

Nah for me the last Prem relegation was worse, not winning a single game for that length of time, spending £12m or whatever it was on Christopher bloody Samba and then the Bosingwa shambles. Not to mention Ji Sung Park......
for me this is our worst relegation, i've been coming for over 40 years been at away games when we've had less than 100 fans . its worse because today we have a team of so called stars on high wages . this team have been a disgrace , lack of effort , half hearted performances , going thru the motions . i don't know if its lack of fitness , players to old or players not trying, we the fans have done our bit i've been all round the country this season and we've had good support . it jars me when at the end of away games the players give a weak clap to the fans then stroll off back to their fabulous lifestyles . that shows the massive gap between players and supporters , in this together i don't think so
