Who do you want to get relegated & why?

Of the ones in the dogfight, Leeds, Bournemouth and Palace. Hope West Ham stay up as apart from Blue Hammer their fans are class. Impressed with Forest support for Cooper.

And it completely ignores or is historically unaware that these ‘big’ clubs haven’t always been big clubs.

If football had just kept the big boys at the top since it’s inception, the trophies would always be contested by and the Champions League would always be played in by Old Etonians, Royal Engineers, Wanderers and Oxford University.

Christ, Scottish club Queens Park had played in more English FA Cup finals by 1885 than all current 92 professional English clubs apart from Blackburn Rovers.

By the outbreak of WW1 Sunderland had challenged for the First Division title 12 times. It took United until 1965 and Liverpool until 1972 to get to that level.

By this ‘traditional big club’ rights, the top of the Premier League should look nothing like it does.

all well n good but they didnt invent football like the red mardarses

Leeds,Southampton and Palace. I hate Leeds and the other two are anti football time wasting twats. In a perfect world though Spurs dippers and rags

 

[Jack Hackett]

Spurs…obvious…

 

[East Level 2]

Rags, dippers and either Arse or spuds would do nicely.
Back in the real world:
Southampton because they moaned to the PL when we reduced their allocation for the final game at Maine Road and the PL said we had to give them 3,000 free tickets the following season. They couldn't even sell the reduced allocation for Maine Road and only brought 3,000 to the Etihad because the club provided free transport.
Brighton because they built a ground in the middle of nowhere without any car parks. The park and ride is OK before the game but can be a long wait afterwards. Train from Lewes was OK on the day we won the title there in 2019.
Bournemouth because they refuse to increase the capacity to allow more tickets for away fans even though there is plenty of room behind one of the stands.
All London clubs as parking is a bloody nightmare at all of them meaning it's 2 tube or train rides in addition to a long drive.
Everton because they were a prime force behind creating the Premier League and because the media lunacy would be ridiculous.
And Leeds, because they are Leeds. And because under Revie they had brilliant players but he turned them into a bunch of whinging thugs.

The obvious 3 but oddly, you have a Spurs over Scousers…don’t get me wrong, I applaud your judgment but that’s a surprise for me

I don't see the point of spurs. All they seem to do is beat us then implode every season.

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

Palace, Everton (as someone has already said, it’d actually do them some good. They’d be the biggest draw in the championship and, under Dyche, would likely be back in a season or two. To the Everton posters on here, don’t underestimate a season of winning most weeks for getting a feel good factor back and, like we did, you’d sell out every week and enjoy football again).
And Leeds, obviously. Always Leeds.

By this ‘traditional big club’ rights, the top of the Premier League should look nothing like it does. The PL in general would be this 20:
Old Etonians
Wanderers
Royal Engineers
Oxford University
Blackburn Olympic
Blackburn Rovers
Queens Park of Glasgow
West Bromwich Albion
Sunderland
Preston North End
Everton
Aston Villa
Notts County
Wolverhampton Wanderers
Clapham Rovers
The Wednesday
Sheffield United
Derby County
Old Carthusians
Bury

Manchester would still be a rugby city and maybe Everton could have afforded to stay at Anfield and there’d never have been a ‘Liverpool FC’ formed.

Who of that lot would win the league?
