    Finishing bottom of the Premiership but that is over 38 games and not 42? Leicester City the answer maybe, or Watfford?

    Stains, Wolves, Sunderland and West ham all finished bottom I thought in successive years. Worth a punt I suppose!

    On the right lines (sort of <whistle>) but not the correct answer
    Remember the earlier clue; they were the first 6 teams to do this.

    New clue:
    It all happened in the 1970s

    Tell this has nothing to do with dodgy flare-trousered official suits? They would certainly qualify as reasons for regret.

    Well they did play 42 games in the leagues in the 70's , my feeling is it is something to do with Div.2. Still no wiser though! Will have a think about it on the train.:emoticon-0116-evilg

    All finished 20th in the Football Div 1 and got relegated in consecutive seasons, starting with Saints 73/74, Luton 74/75, 75/76 Wolves, 76/77 Sunderland, 77/78 Hammers, 78/79 QPR. So QPR is the answer.<bubbly> <magic>

    Well, don't keep us in suspense! Is Singing right, or has his shot hit the corner flag as per usual? <laugh>

    It was the first time 3 teams instead of two were relegated to the second division. I have consulted my handy English Football League & F.A. Premier League tables 1888-2009 Copyright Soccer Books and can confirm SingingBlue was right all along!

    Southampton had to be first at something!

    Which is the oldest Devo team 6 or the other way around?. Is that old Yugoslavia in other words or National Federation of Yugoslavia(Serbia)?

    I'll give it to Channon - It was Italy and the list was the first 6 hosts of the European Championships. <ok>
