Consecutive Promotions?

Recommended Posts

Just wasted a good twenty minutes at work trying to settle an argument, but had no luck and was wondering if anyone would be so kind as to help...

Does anyone know when the last time a team won consecutive promotions to reach the top flight, in English football?

And, in the interests of getting this related to NCFC so as to avoid the forum police, does anyone genuinely believe we can do it?

Personally, i''m looking no higher than a comfortable mid-table position.

Man City I think...in 2000?

May be wrong?

Think they had successive relegations before that as well! Or twice in 3 years at least...

And now i feel a right numpty.

Racked my brain but couldn''t think of one in recent times, so was looking way back into the 70s and 80s instead!

How''d i forget about Man City? Silly boy.

Cheers!

Fulham had a year in between their promotions, if i remember correctly. Which, judging from my previous attempt at remembering something, i''m not.

Hull, Peterborough and Exeter didn''t get promoted to the top flight, though, but nice one, nonetheless.

Wasn''t aware of the Watford one, i somehow contrived to miss that entirely!

Didn''t Millwall do it in the 60s, too? Way before my time, but i vaguely remember reading that somewhere.
