League Cup Winners! 1961-2009

If we have the FA Cup, only fair we have this as well, I never knew Rochdale had been in a final! And Oxford are of course the only team to win a cup and now not be in the Football League! Although they are back in the football league once more...

I'm not sure where this myth comes from. They have spent most of their time in the bottom division and were in Div 4 when they reached the League Cup final but they did get promoted in 1969 and spent 5 seasons in Division 3 before getting relegated again.

In 1980 they were nearly voted out of the league, saved by 1 vote. This was after finishing bottom for the 2nd season in a row, with only 24 points (although that was with 2 points for a win) from their 46 games. Altrincham were the "unlucky" team not voted into the league.
