The clubs shown in bold are founder members of the Premier League
Not a bad record but, unfortunately, most of the time we have been in the lower positions but at least we have been in the top League pretty consistently in the past 31 years.
Poor old Oldham, once a Prem side, now down in the National League.
There are also seven clubs who once graced the top League wallowing in the depths of the old Third & Fourth Divisions.

We would have been relegated years ago if Lawro's predictions had been accurate. The BBC are only interested in the 'Big 5', City, United, Chelsea, Arsenal, and the red Scousers - Leicester get their mention because they upset the master plan, and Forest get in because of the character that was Cloughie. The make weights are of no consequence, and are interchangeable.

31 years of PL riches and we still have been poor. The advantage we should have gained by having more money that the teams who haven't been in the league long has been wasted. Shamefull

We have wasted some crazy money, certainly in recent years. That VVD sale should have helped us evolve the team in a time when we were in the post-koeman dip, but they gave 20 fucking million of it to MP to sign Carrillo and then sacked him a few weeks later ffs. One of the worst transfer windows I can ever remember.

The summer under Hughes wasn't much more of a success either. Wasted the rest of the VVD fortune on Vestergaard, Gunn, Elyounoussi. Shocking really, targeted the wrong sorts of player.

It was during the Koeman era that we got the right idea (mostly) by signing the best players from "lesser" leagues like Tadic, Mane, Forster and Pelle, and a couple of players that had previously been good but were overlooked by their clubs like Alderweireld and Bertrand. The following summer, bar Van Dijk and Romeu who ended up good, we brought in Austin, Clasie, Martina, Cedric (ish), Caulker and Juanmi and our transfer woes really stem from there. onwards. Thankfully the youth product of JWP came good when he did or we might not have been in the Prem this season.

Agreed (F'ing obviously 🤣😭). Hopefully though we can stay up this season and all of a sudden the future looks a bit more rosy. We've definitely got some high potential/return players on the books now, and with Shields in charge of recruitment you have to think we won't waste that money again.
