Losers

I'm trying to work out if 98 places is a record.

What else is there?

Hereford Newcastle?

This one runs it close.





This is the only other I can remember with such a vast difference.

1 West Bromwich Albion 2-4 Woking (1991) – 1 in 15,959,312

Woking are the proud owners of the FA Cup’s biggest upset, according to the mathematical model. If this match was played 15,959,312, West Brom would win 15,959,311 of them. But on that day the game did not go as expected.
Woking were in the Isthmian League in 1991, while the Baggies were in the Second Division.
West Brom took the lead through Colin West, but Tim Buzaglo was the hero of the piece, scoring a remarkable 11-minute hat-trick to turn things around for the away side


“I remember sitting there after the match thinking: ‘Am I dreaming? This can’t be happening. We’re from Surrey, nobodies, what’s going on here?’,” Woking manager Geoff Chapple told the FA.
“Our players were part-time. We had couriers, painters, decorators and builders. But I always used to instil in them that anything was possible, especially in the FA Cup, and this result proved it.”

Numbers people, numbers.

Has anyone done worse than losing to a team 98 places below them?

sybille won't be too upset, it's been a weekend of come-from-behind victories

fnar fnar

Imagine watching this in the 70s when they had sideburns the size of hedges.

Oh dear.

Shame the world has to see that shit, isn't it?

Birmingham never really did grow Up did it.

Well it's obviously a minority of idiots, but they don't give a shit about anyone else, do they.

Jail time and lifetime bans.

Send a message.

But these scum didn't emerge just of this match. They will have been known to WBA and authorities already.

That doesn't mean they were convicted or have stadium bans.

Sometimes I have to mute the volume.

No different to a home game at the Etihad really
