I think GUAW was saying they were out of the top division for that long, rather than them being in the third tier all that time.

It was actually 13 years not 15. Sorry. 2nd & 3rd division between 1971 & 1984.
My first 5 seasons as a football fan saw them as a 3rd div side. 5 years is an eternity when you're that age, hence me always associating them with being a low level club.
I remember being massively confused at the time as to why such a crap team had such a huge ground.
To my young mind, it was Sheff Utd who were the bigger club due to them being in the 1st division & playing against City at the time. Historically of course, the opposite is true.

I saw someone on their forum saying this was happening before the game today.

It can see how their board would think it not helpful to make a new manager's first match against us. He came close to getting a draw though, and what then?

We are 14 games in and averaging a point per game more than the team in third.
Maresca has done an absolutely unbelievable job. I do not think anyone on this forum would have believed we could be 14 points clear of even the playoffs 30% of the way through the season. Ludicrous.

The home fans seem pretty restless at Cov right now. Currently trailing 1-0 thanks to a goalkeeping howler.....

Is he setting up a Gofundme, as not seen it locally if he has. The fans came out of their hovels to celebrate their win over Toytown as they call Rovrum, but will be heading back to hide again with the Thailand nutters latest idea.
