Started supporting the addicks (Valiants) in 1970.
Will have to look it up, but, what is the lowest league postition we've been in since you started supporting ?
I go back a bit further. In 1973-74, we finished 14th in Division 3. I assume we dipped below that position at some point, but I am not sure. The following season we were on our way back up.
The 1962-63 season was the most exciting relegation battle in Dvision 2, however. With 3 games left, we needed to win all three games. We won away to Walsall and Luton, the two fellower strugglers. We reduced Walsall to 9 men to win 2-1. In the final game of the season, Cliff Durandt scored in the last minute to beat Southampton 1-0 and preserve our Division 2 season. Even my Dad went beserk!
