THE FOUNDER MEMBERS
Where are they now? This shows the fates of the twelve original founder members of the Football League back in 1888, how many seasons they have subsequently spent in the top flight, and the number of Step 1 titles. With all the money at the top of the game, the last column is hardly going to change much in the future.
