Re: The Premier League's worst bottom two

Off chance Everton could relegate us. Even Forest only need to gain another 7 points over us but chances of that in next 5 games not great.

Re: The Premier League's worst bottom two

And those stats include when Derby went down with 11 or 12 points and 09-10 seas0n when Portsmouth deducted points for administration
Personally cannot see either team getting 20 points.
In fact we might make 35.
