Are we the only club to have played in every professional division?

Premier League
Championship
League 1
League 2
Division 1
Division 2
Division 3
Division 3 south
Division 3 north
Division 4

Can’t be many other clubs that have done that are there?

I was thinking maybe Portsmouth but then I noticed Division 3 North. So now I’m thinking that if there is it must be another Midlands based club due to the central location.

Luton have done them all apart from Division 3 North and we only did that division for one season; we were mainly in South like them.

I'm also guilty for 'Who did Oggy play against when he made his first appearance at HR'?

Not many clubs would have qualified to be in Div 3 North and South, let's face it...

Pretty sure it's just Grimsby and ourselves.

While on the subject of Quiz Questions - Grimsby are in another 'rare group' - they don't play in their own Town. Their ground is in Cleethorpes.

That's right - It was never a promotion/relegation issue, merely one of balancing numbers in the divisions on the occasion it was needed and obviously we are geographically positioned to have been able to fulfil that requirement according to the FL's desire.

I think you're getting mixed up with West Auckland. Didn't they compete in what was considered a forerunner to the World Cup?

Sorry, misread your question - Thought you meant 'third rate'.

Played 5 games in a row, I’m sure he didn’t let a goal in, transferred to first division Chelsea for a big I think record fee for a goalkeeper yet never got another cap, as they say footballs a funny old game.

Scottish crowds interesting there. Were Celtic and Rangers not so big then?
