“You saw the reaction from Gillingham. Their celebrations were as though they had won the World Cup.” Steve Evans, Boxing Day 2011, after his Crawley team lost 2-1 at home to Gillingham.
But what if Gillingham had won the World Cup that day? And what if, rather than only being up for grabs once every four years, it was defended like a WWE championship, up for grabs every game? Who would be the current title holders after 14 years?
Caveat: only wins count, if a match is drawn it remains with the holder unless the draw is a cup-tie settled after extra-time/penalties, in which case the title can change hands.
