I think Arsenal hold that record.

I thought they were the most consecutive seasons?

I've no idea how accurate these figures are, but, assuming they are, here are the numbers:

(Shite website, mind).

Noooo, good website. Horrible to look at though. 116 out of 120 seasons, Christ.

Yeah I meant shite to look at, really.
Not sure that the figures are correct for Sunderland or Newcastle (or both). I though Sunderland had been in the top flight for more seasons and it has them listed above Newcastle, but with a lower number

Liverpool haven’t finished outside the top 8 since they were promoted in 1962. Jebus.

Cracking website that one PPF, thanks.
My current favourite stat gleaned from it is that we've now played more matches in the Premier League than Florist and Draby combined!!

Stop me or I'll be on here all night . . .
Vardy has already scored more Premier League goals than Beckham, Zola, Hughes and Collymore.

Cov spent 34 consecutive seasons in the top flight ... roughly 33 of those relegation fights.

Whether you're Puel In or Puel Out, it's a good read from John Percy.

The whole Puel situation is a strange one. To me, the split in opinion on the matter comes more down to his style than anything else - and how much of an optimist you are.
I have to admit that even after a year, I'm still fairly undecided on Puel but remain on the 'in' side for now. I think we're in a reasonable position without playing well. And I feel its more likely to gel and get better at the moment than it is to get worse. I'm happy enough with where we are with the hope of pushing on that it's worth giving it time to see if it will start to gel given the player changes over the summer.

Yep. And I don’t think we as a society are any further forward with how we deal with mental illness now than when he retired.

Well we know it’s an illness now instead of just thinking they’re nuts

We knew that then though, no?
In what way? Are NHS mental health services any better than useless? My experience is by no means universal and I could be a total outlier but I’ve never got anywhere. Does mental illness have any less stigma attached? Do individuals understand it any better or are people still told to “cheer up” or “pull themselves together”? Have we changed for the better any of the myriad societal issues that are known to exacerbate mental health problems?

Pah!! We’re all so gullible. Puel is just pulling the old trick - Divide & Conquer.
He’s like a new Stalin and we’re all falling for it!
