Are we cursed?

Inspired by Ancient Colin's UE in the Torkey hat, I was wondering if maybe someone at the club has shot an albatross, a la Coleridge.

Are there any other clubs who have been as consistently unsuccessful as us over the last ten years?

Can we rightly call ourselves the most long-suffering fans in the country?

Well, Bradford City have slipped from top flight to Division 4 strugglers in 6 or 7 years. They may yet usurp us as best supported club in the conference next season.

I wouldn't be surprised if Luton and Millwall also manage to copy our magnificent achievement in the next few years.

I know fans of both teams who are convinced they are on the slippery slope.

Carlisle must be the only other team to play in all 5 divisions, I'm guessing.

Well, they've had a couple of promotions in the last three or four seasons, so they're on the way back.

and they own their own ground now.

Still rather be in our position then AFC Wombles but apart from that I don't think there are any other teams with quite so many lows and lack of highs in the last 10 years
