garcon Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I can't be bothered counting. It probably is. But then there was a significant gap in the late 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily for any unsuspecting backpackers I had a tunnel vision of hatred. Could have been worse. My mate came up from Reading. I'm sure we've learnt lessons since then though. Positive. What's that, they messed up the Blackpool game too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBigDog Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 22 seasons (this season the 23rd) For me it is now 44 seasons - high point that Redfearn penalty - low point that Cardiff home defeat - the rest has been a rollercoaster ride - nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
