Where the hell do they get their stats from :lol:
In the championship for nearly 20 years with 2 promotions to the Premier League in that time does not constitute being a yo-yo club :shock: :? :roll:

Football existed before the premier league In my time watching city they have been relegated of promoted 18 times and the total amount is correct

I can see that 'back in the day' we were a 'Yo-Yo' club; but I am surprised we are No.1 :shock:

I am equally surprised not to see the likes of Norwich up there; but maybe they are just the modern example of a 'Yo-yo' club in front of Fulham and West Brom :o

We were promoted or relegated 6 times in the 80s alone At least we got to see many different teams each year lol

Yes, like you, I was amongst the few who saw it all and it was a concentrated period of ups and downs

I know we had periods of similar ups and downs either side of the war (I wasn't there for that :laughing6: ) but I'm still a little surprised no one has had more than us

We can't ever say life is dull at our club though, Ian... :thumbup: :lol:

I thought WBA would hold that record. WBA standing for Were Back Again.
