Name teams who were in the not too distant past better than us.

Ipswich bastard Town, for one. Only ten years ago. Who else and how long ago?

Liverpool . Remind me the last time we won at Anfield . Are yes it was 2003 under Kevin Keegan .
 
Wimbledon & Derby. We played them in cup games when they were both 2 divisons above us. Fucking Wimbledon!!

Great day out though that FA Cup game at Selhurst. More Blues than home fans, I reckon we took 7k that day. Obviously not recalled by any opposition fans who sing the "Where were you when you were shit" bollocks.
 
After York, weren't we 12th in the third tier of English football.
That means there were 53 league clubs better than us after that game
