Hone team with 28.7% possession and 1 shot off target.

Can't remember the stat, but I'm sure I heard that the three promoted clubs going straight back down doesn't happen all that often.

Just checked and before last season, you had to go back to the 1997/98 season for the last time it happened (Barnsley, Bolton and Palace).

It's all he can do to run a bath these days.

I don’t doubt it’s historically rare but it feels like a bit of a rift is opening up.

Past results are not indicative of future performance!

Steve Cooper always looks like he's just got out of a really painful headlock
