The world's oldest club is listed by FIFA as Sheffield FC.
This season (2007/8) they have been promoted and are now playing in the Unibond League Div 1 South. This is the highest league position they have ever been in.
This season is a landmark for the club as they are 150 years old.
As odd as it may seem they do not now play in Sheffield but in Dronfield just outside the city
