Genoa Winning promotion to the top division but subsequently being demoted to the third tier becuase of financial irregularities, sounds familiar? They've also won the Anglo-Italian Cup, they beat Port Vale in 1996! I remember them when they were good in the 90's on Channel 4. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genoa_C.F.C.

is there anyone you don't support larwood? spanish suggestions could include las palmas, won a fair bit and spent some time in the top division but now in the 3rd tier of spanish football. and vinny samways played for 'em  rayo vallecano are a yo-yo club, spent loads of time in the top division and got to the quarter-finals in the uefa cup a few years back. they're now in the same tier as las palmas. their chairman is a woman who is a bit mental.

geneva servette - once a major force in switzerland (not that that means much) but two years ago declared bankrupt after some fine axamples of managerial idiocy that would make our board look like it was run by sir john harvey stevens. Relegated two divisions as a penalty, which was a little bit embarrassing as geneva city had just built them a new 30,000 seater stadium against the wishes of most of the local voters, where they were then playing basically the equivalent of sunday afternoon pub football against other sides from 20km away.
apart from the overly generous city counci, does that sound familiar ?!
