Macca Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) Since the start of the Premier League in 1992 there have been 9 teams who have spent 1 season in the top flight but no more than 2. Can you name them? No cheating! Edited September 27, 2011 by Stevie_J Coz I'm not working another four days this week... Quote

Can you name them? No cheating! Not sure about any of them really but: Notts County? Swindon? Burnley? Blackpool? Watford...? Edited September 27, 2011 by Stevie_J Quote
davemathieson Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 does this make sense? do you mean name the clubs who have spent only 1 or 2 seasons in the premier league? Quote

Macca Posted September 27, 2011 Author Posted September 27, 2011 does this make sense? do you mean name the clubs who have spent only 1 or 2 seasons in the premier league? Basically yes, Teams that have been in the Premier League for no more than 2 seasons. Quote
Macca Posted September 27, 2011 Author Posted September 27, 2011 Oh, and it's Tuesday! Haha! I blame my job. If you would like to change the title? Quote
Macca Posted September 27, 2011 Author Posted September 27, 2011 Got 8 of the 9 so far. 1 more to go. Quote
Stevie_J Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 It's Tuesday. Barnsley. Bradford. Oldham. Of course! Bit of a trick built into that one. Quote
opinions4u Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Tried to edit but: It's Tuesday. Barnsley. Bradford. Oldham. Hull. Reading. (Swansea) Blackpool. Watford. Swindon. Burnley. Quote
Macca Posted September 27, 2011 Author Posted September 27, 2011 Tried to edit but: It's Tuesday. Barnsley. Bradford. Oldham. Hull. Reading. (Swansea) Blackpool. Watford. Swindon. Burnley. Correct, although Swansea haven't completed a season yet but the others are all correct. Back to work! Quote
opinions4u Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Correct, although Swansea haven't completed a season yet but the others are all correct. Back to work! Hence the brackets. Quote
Scapegoat Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Tried to edit but: It's Tuesday. Barnsley. Bradford. Oldham. Hull. Reading. (Swansea) Blackpool. Watford. Swindon. Burnley. Of those - Oldham, Reading, Hull and Bradford have managed 2 seasons I think and the rest just one. Who is the smallest Premier League side? In terms of support (avg attendance in the PL) and / or population of the location? Quote
leeslover Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I would guess at wimbledon as the lowest support, burnley lowest population. Quote
Stevie_J Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I would guess at wimbledon as the lowest support, burnley lowest population. I'd say Wimbledon and Barnsley. Quote
laticdickovarmy Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Wimbledon had a lot more that 1, we had 2, hull had 2, bradford stayed up on the last day weatherall score a header v liverpool to send the dons down, i went to wimbledon v southampton that day with my best mate he was devestaed Blackpool Barnsley Swindon Burnley Quote
BlueJazzer Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I Wpuld have thought our population was smaller than burnleys? Quote
Wozzer Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 I Wpuld have thought our population was smaller than burnleys? You would have thought wrong then, Burnley's about 70% of Oldham's size. Quote
HarryBosch Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 You would have thought wrong then, Burnley's about 70% of Oldham's size. We've got more people but they've still got more fingers. Quote
Scapegoat Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 We've got more people but they've still got more fingers. Shouldn't laugh.....but funny. Quote
alex_balls Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 (edited) Burnley - (Pop.73,500) (Ave. Att. 10-11 14,931) Oldham - (Pop.103,544) (Ave Att. 10-11 4,392) Blackpool - (Pop.142,900) (Ave Att. 10-11 15,775) I know it's been done to death, but for a town the size of our's we should be getting far more people through the gate.

It's a fair point but Blackpool are riding a wave at the moment. What was their average in this division? Quote
