Yes, us in 1975.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

Compared to me who in 15 years has only ever seen a relegation from the prem, 2 relegations to the 3rd division, finishing just above the relegation zone in our first season down, 2 promotions back up to the 2nd division and the highest I've ever remembered us finishing is 9th in the championship ...

You lot have lived a life of luxury, I'm actually enjoying not scrapping around at the bottom of the league for once Laugh

Actually, the difference is we have lived a life!!!  Yours is still ahead of you.  Take our older statesman Pei, I was jealous of his generation, they saw Wednesday finish 2nd in 1961 to a great Spurs side, get to the Cup Final in 66 and play the entire 60s in the top division, and they watched England win the World Cup!!!  I started regularly watching Wednesday in 1975, so my football life started worse than yours, at least you saw us in the top division before we slumped, I started at the bottom of the slump!!!

By the time you are our age, you will hopefully have seen everything we saw in the 80s and 90s, hopefully it happens in the 20s and 30s of this century, that way most of us will be around to see it as well!!!

wales HAMMER Italy 20-61 making their PD +53 and go top of the table with Ireland (+33 PD) and England (+37 PD) still to play this afternoon/evening. England have to beat France by more than 16 points and hope Ireland win by <20 v Scotland and they win the championship.

Waes now find themselves in a funny situation where they are top of the table having played all their games but have to wait nearly 5 hours before they find out whether they have actually won the whole championship

England won't win by that many but Ireland could well hammer Scotland!!

I think Engalnd will do it and despite Ireland playing scotland who have not won all championship, scotland tend not to get steam rolled by teams

Anytime you get beaten by Italy should be classed as a steamrollering!!!

they did yes but if thhey can somehow beat Ireland today then they don't finish bottom because their PD is only (Laugh only) -20 ish

start like we did first 10 minutes vs scotland and finish how we did vs wales and we should beat France comfortably
