When is the last time we confirmed a promotion by getting a result at home? All the last few I can remember were either away from home or confirmed by other teams results

Yeh it was the Leeds Villa game the next day though that properly confirmed it. Or ‘Stearman Day’ as it shall henceforth be knownIpswich game pretty much confirmed it, albeit not mathematically.
Yesterday.When is the last time we confirmed a promotion by getting a result at home? All the last few I can remember were either away from home or confirmed by other teams results
Ipswich game pretty much confirmed it, albeit not mathematically.
This is the quickest we ever been promoted back to the top league since l have been following us. Does anyone know if we ever got back up so quick?
Presumably when HMS Piss the League was seaworthy.Our previous best was it took 3 seasons in the Championship 1969 to 1971 before returning back to the top flight.
So we've beaten that record by needing only 2 seasons in the Championship before returning to the top flight.
By comparison Sheff Wed have managed to return to the top flight at the first attempt, needing just 1 season to be promoted.
and they've managed this on 5 different occasions.
Forget the mathsIpswich game pretty much confirmed it, albeit not mathematically.
I think you are right. Not done that since 1971, I think. The promotion clinchers since then happened at an away game or from results elsewhereWatford in 71 l think
A nice 3-0 win like that great day would doI think you are right. Not done that since 1971, I think. The promotion clinchers since then happened at an away game or from results elsewhere
I think we should drag it out for 3 or 4 games. Just for the bantz.
Yep. SubsequentlyI think you are right. Not done that since 1971, I think. The promotion clinchers since then happened at an away game or from results elsewhere
Brilliant, thank you Silent and Corkblade. Gives some context to the opportunity that is in front of us this week. 52 years…..!I think you are right. Not done that since 1971, I think. The promotion clinchers since then happened at an away game or from results elsewhere
Have we been promoted already?This is the quickest we ever been promoted back to the top league since l have been following us. Does anyone know if we ever got back up so quick?
No, after the 5-1 win, Cardiff had 2 games left (v Orient h and v Luton a) and were 3 points behind us. Cardiff beat Orient 1-0 on the same day we beat Watford 3-0. A few days later Luton beat Cardiff 3-0Just occurred to me that The Blades V Cardiff match when we licked them 5-1 on 27/4/1971.I,m sure promotion was achieved that fantastic night. from the Times Archive.52 years later. Tommorrow night at Bramall Lane we could secure promotion to the premier league 52 years later.. I'm sure His Royal Highness Bert and Sir Silent Blade will correct me. if I,m wrong it,s because I still get excited now as I did then.
