League placing - bottom of the Cheshire League twice - once may just be in someone's living memory (1952-3) but the other is definitely history (1929-30).
Points total for season - again, one is just about in living memory -1960-61 22 pts. from 42 games (which would equate to 30 pts. under modern system); and the other one isn't - 1928-9 23 pts, from 38 games (equating to 31 pts. under modern system).
This season may very easily beat the points record; the question of lowest ever league placing is more subjective, but it's a sad commentary on affairs that either matter should be exercising my tiny mind!

Lets hope it doesn't happen

That 1960/61 season was the one during which the club almost ceased to exist owing to financial chaos.
By contrast, in this 2016/17 season we are apparently thriving.

We need a 21st century White & Swales.

I'd settle for Harris back from his northwich exile

He could be back soon......with Witton who could come up.

It might not be all doom and gloom next season. The famous Lancaster City are on the way up so a visit to the Giant Axe will be a good day out. I went there a few years ago when i noticed they had minus three points and hadn't won a game for as long as anyone could remember. I had a great day there. I just wish i could remember it.

Trafford are in with a shout and don't rule out Droylsden making the play offs
-
Droylsden have about as much chance of making the playoffs as we have of staying up. They may only be 6 points off them, but they've played more games than most of the teams above them.
Lancaster is worth a visit just for the superb pies !

So Mike, 23 points from the remaining games is a must!

After a conversation at yesterday's match, I have had a look through old tables for the most goals conceded, and, as far as I can see, it's 146 from 42 league matches in 1928-29. We only finished 3rd bottom that season.
At least, that's one record we should (I stress should) be able to avoid breaking.
