First time in their 132 year history they've finished on the top flight. Finished just above relegation last year (they were two leagues lower just 7 years ago).

5000-1 Odds to win.

for anyone who cares about sports (I know), here are some other comparisons to put in perspective

1980 US Olympic Hockey Team: 1000-1

1999 St. Louis Rams SB title: 300-1

James Buster Douglas knocking out Mike Tyson: 49-1



I love underdog stories. Shows money isn't all that matters in sports.

They're looking pretty good though, and I don't even care about Baseball.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
literally in a different league not too long ago
what a climb
