I can confirm that we have set the record for the longest continuous period spent in 7th place for a Premier League club beginning with the letter B in a year ending in the number 8. Great achievement

Wrong. Blackburn hold the record. In 1998 they spent 206 days in 7th moving up to 6th on the last day of the season.

Actually I was just making that up! But you never know, it could be true due to some weird glitch in the Matrix...
