As incredible as it may seem, I've found something more exciting than the Club World Cup thingy!

We were a lowly 19th in Div One on my birthday.
(But a division above Norwich)
I wonder how many 'Top of the League' newborns we have on here?

14th in the top tier on 10 points.
Norwich were nowhere to be seen and Sheff Utd and Derby were both in the top four. |  |

2nd in Div 3 (south).
Finished top, 64 points and a goal average of 1.608.
For the yoofs, GA was goals for divided by goals against.
They changed to goal difference because they claimed it favoured tight defenses rather than scoring teams and they wanted to encourage scoring*.
Yes, that was the forward thinking that the FA is renowned for and what they thought was holding football back in the 50's.
* 7-4 is a GD of 3 but a GA of 1.75
3-1 is a GD of 2 but a GA of 3.0. |  |

Norwich relegated.
A good year. |  |

19th in Div 1, top scorer Vijoen (10)
Nodge were in their customary role of being mid table mediocrity in Div 2, no doubt still celebrated to this day. | | | |

We'd lost 7 in a row in Division 1, then I was born and we only lost one of the remaining ten, winning six, including Norwich at home 2-0, going on to finish above then by two points in 12th. |  | | |

Fourth in Division 1 (top league) having just played our last game of the season. Just behind Derby but a long way back from Leeds and Liverpool in 1st and 2nd.
Still a couple of games left to play for some of the mid-table teams (no same time kick-offs back in the day), but no one can overtake us.
Delightfully, the bottom two were Norwich (bottom) and Man Utd, who were both relegated alongside Southampton.
Carlisle are about to be promoted to Div One, Wrexham just missed out on promotion to Div Two, Bournemouth and Brighton are in Div Three and Brentford in Div Four. | | | |
