They also scored more goals than we’ve currently got (and I can’t see us surpassing those totals either).
I hadn’t check goal scoring but it looks like you’re right, we’re on for 31 as it currently stands which is still pitiful.
One record we have beaten is Rochdale’s woeful away record in 1977/78, won 0, drew 2, lost 21, scored 14, conceded 57. Remarkable.
History says that Workington were voted out of the league because of their far-off geographical position, whereas clubs like Rochdale, Hartlepool and even us survived multiple re-elections in the 1970s through a combination of old boys’ networks and other clubs being less popular.
One other thing I didn’t mention on my first post is our own record in 1974/75, which is presumably our worst season to date, when we got 36 points, with 7 wins (all at home) and scored 41 goals.
