Who are the best ever team to be relegated? 09:40 - Jul 6 with 5802 views | bournemouthblue | inspired by the Budgies farcical claims of bring the best side ever to be relegated, who do we reckon is actually the best side to be relegated from the Premier League? I imagine West Ham who were relegated with the highest points total will have a fair shout? | |

Who are the best ever team to be relegated? on 09:44 - Jul 6 with 3430 views | clive_baker | Are some people actually claiming that to be the case? Odd given they're rock bottom and can't beat an egg. They're not even the best side to be relegated this season. Newcastle in 2016 are worthy of a mention. Their squad was far too good to go down but Rafa came in too late. Steve Mclaren, what a disaster he is. | |

I think the actual claim from Chris Sutton was 'best team to be bottom of the premier league', which is also demonstrably nonsense. | |

They certainly seem to be pulling out all the stops to prove him to be a total pillock right now! [Post edited 6 Jul 2020 9:49]

That's a fair shout there, that was a very strong side indeed | |

Can't agree with that, we were an absolute shambles that season domestically, mate. | | | |

I'm not going to persist with pushing the Andy Marshall was not a problem angle, but can we agree that Sereni was not the solution? | |

Tbf so were every other candidate for this title which is why they got relegated despite having standout players. I think the unluckiest team to be relegated are Sheff utd. After being done by the Tevez and Mascherano deal. | | | |

Oh yeah, two panic-bought goalies deffo. for me, the main issue we had was the fact that we had precious little mobility in defence OR central midfield. Sides were wise to our best play coming through Magilton and looked to cut him him off, leaving him chasing shadows(very slowly) and Matt Holland fire fighting and anyone running at McGreal and Venus... | |

And teams become shambolic when they do not have best faith in their keeper. The fish rots from the head and all that. (Just thought that the forum could do with a Mao Zedong quote this morning - although I have just checked that online and seen it ascribed to Rumi, the Persian poet who died in 1273.) | |

Yup, both keepers failed to inspire confidence, Marshall in particular was an absolute joke. We went down and we deserved to go down, personally don't consider us unlucky or to have been a particularly "good" team who went down, too many changes, too soon. | | | |

Who are the best ever team to be relegated? on 11:42 - Jul 6 with 3110 views | Clapham_Junction | Man City 1937/38 must be a decent shout. Champions the previous season and the division's top scorers in the season they went down. I think possibly the only team ever relegated from the top division with a positive goal difference? | | | |

Great shout, I can't remember how they performed points wise but that was a great Leeds side. | | | |

That is a good shout. Especially considering it wasn't long before that David O'L had got them to a Champions League semi final. I don't like Leeds but I did like that side a lot. Martyn, Harte, Kelly, Rio, Woodgate, Radebe, Smith, Kewell, Viduka, Fowler, Keane, Dacourt etc. Harte's still a cheating **** though. | |

They , Wolves and Leicester all went down with the same points total: 33. Leeds finished in 19th place. [Post edited 6 Jul 2020 12:17]

I think the Newcastle squad of 2008 were better. Too many mercenaries though and a shambolic trail of managers. No squad containing Owen, Nolan, Barton, Duff, Martins, Taylor, Butt, Collocini, Enrique, Smith and Viduka should have been anywhere near going down. | |
