In 115 years as a professional football club, Cardiff City has finished rock bottom of a league table on just five occasions:
1928/29 - bottom of the First Division
1930/31 - bottom of the Second Division
1933/34 - bottom of the Third Division (South)
2013/14 - bottom of the Premier League
2024/25 - bottom of the Championship
The 2024/25 campaign was the first in which the Bluebirds finished bottom of a 24-team Football League division.
It’s amazing to think that during the Seventies, Eighties and Nineties, when the club was often in serious financial trouble and fielding some of the weakest, most hopeless sides in its history, Cardiff City never once finished bottom of a league table, and yet they’ve now done so twice in eleven years while under the control of a multi-millionaire owner.
