This is a single post from deeden.co.uk made during the period May 2002 to April 2009. During a previous grand redesign I decided to make a break with the past and consign the old entries to history. This entry is from May 2004 and lives here forevermore.

Relegation

A quick check just now shows me that City have been relegated 5 times in my lifetime and I remember each one. I also remember each of the 4 promotions, so at least there has been some payoff. The most disturbing fact I’ve discovered is that I have been alive for only one less relegation that my parents. They’ve seen City relegated 1 more time, although they did get a championship as well.

Thankfully this year is not going to provide relegation number 6. I do feel sympathy for Marc (Leicester) and Marty (Leeds) who have suffered relegation this season though.
