Congratulations Norwich and the Swans, you did it with ease. We ( as usual) left it rather late. I can't be arsed to do the research... but whatever... Congratulations to all three. ( I know that col won't agree. )
No it's not the first time, think you need to go back ten years or so to find the last time. Can't be arsed myself to check but believe it's only happened once or maybe twice since the introduction of the Premier League. Congrats to all three, a major achivement and a testament to the quality of the Championship last year. When many outsiders actually managed to claim it was the poorest Championship campaigns in years
Is it the first time since then though? Or ruin the thread.... I'm looking for a little bit of celebrating here.!!! This is no mean feat. Especially in this day and age.
Oops, sorry! Yes, first time since then. And worth noting that of those 3 teams that stayed up in 2002, all 3 enjoyed 10 years in the top flight. Is that enough hope for you?
Those three have all been here since. Until today that is with Bolton and Blackburn dropping down. If we can emulate Fulham's success it'll be grand.
