Back to the 1970's

Economic depression and mass unemployment; a Labour governement nationalising everything; the Americans involved in a protracted war they cannot win...and Norwich City in the third tier of English football.  I''m not normally one for pessimism, but this evening it finally sunk in. Flares anyone?

We haven''t been in the 3rd division since 1959

Call me pedantic but the lowest we ever were in the ''70''s was second division (Championship for the youngsters).Last time we were in the third tier was the 1950''s and the last time we were relegated from 2nd to 3rd tier was in 1939, 70 years ago.

Or even the 50''s! [:$]

Distress flares for me in more ways than one.  Sorry for the ignorance - thanks for the corrections.  Makes it even worse I suppose!

Well you got the "Flares" bit right if nothing else.
