I think it's fair enough to argue that this season is certainly one of the worst ever. Certainly since 1990, when I started watching, this has to be the worst.
I've done some reseach and it's grim reading indeed. I've listed the worst seasons I could find throughout the archives since 1890 below...
---------------------------
Season 01/02 32/33 55/56 73/74 99/00
League South1 3 South 3 South 2 2
Position 16/16 22/22 24/24 22/22 24/24
Points* 9 38 38 38 36
Goal Dif -75 -45 -44 -36 -39
W 2 9 8 7 8
D 3 11 14 11 12
L 25 22 24 24 26
* = table adjusted to 3pts for win.
Divisions all adjusted to 1,2,3,4 etc for comparison
Honourable mentions:
64/65 looked bad, but we won 14 games so meh...
93/94 - bad season, but remembered with fond memories!
---------------------------
1901 & 1993/1994 could probably be ignored for reasons which should be obvious. So using that logic, in my mind if we don't get a win or 2 at least together soon, this campaign may well rank anywhere from 5th worst, to in fact the worst... depending on your point of view.
Either way it's not good!
