Default Ups and downs reds at Bournemouth dec 92

Been clearing the cupboard and came across a programme from Dean Court . The Wrexham team defies belief but we were eleventh in old Div 2 ( now div 1 ) and our rivals were bottom . I can't remember the score it might have been 2-1 to us BUT this isn't a eulogy of the old days BUT an interesting view of the clubs in that division exactly 25 years ago .
Four are now in the Premier Huddersfield,Cardiff, Brighton and Bournemouth, of course and we were above three of those at that time . Five are now non league
- Stockport, York, Orient, Chester and us . Only eight were in the same division,five in the Championship and two in Div 2 Crewe and Cambridge!
It does go to show that there are no favours in football and clubs do have to plan long term ! So guys lets aim for the Premier league in 25 years time , sorry I shan't be here to see it , unless I am getting on for 100 !
