As an 81 years old and a supporter since 1952, does anyone else remember when we were relegated from the old Third Division South to the newly formed Division Four ( now Division 2).? Fortunately we were promoted the following season to the new Third Division ( now Division One)

Tis.

I remember my dad wanting a washing machine and I said I could buy it on the internet for him (he was in his 80's at the time).

When the machine didn't come when it was supposed to, he said to me that I had to ring this Mr. Internet and find out what the hell was going on.

That was 5 years before my parents were born, and a full 28 before I appeared on the scene.

Crikey.

Well, what do you think of the current predicament? The general consensus seems to be that there has never been a worse time to be a city supporter.

There is no predicament, this is just panic by supporters who can't see the bigger picture. I have experienced real predicaments BUT I stuck by the team no matter what.
