    very interesting table, although pretty much as i expected. I had been wondering about a similar table recently…i would like to know who would be top, if we added together all of the placed finishes from 1900 to now, and divided by the numbre of years, who would have the highest average finish. for example, over the last 3 years, we have finished 3rd, 4th, 3rd (i think?!) making our average finish 3.3. also if you were to finish top of the championship that year, you would have finished 21st…given that we have never been relegated, and we have consistantly been there or there abouts since the 30′s (we’ll ignore the 60′s!) i think we may be top??

      I think you could be right, but I’m not working it out lol

      would be interesting to find out. i could do it, but putting it in a purty graph like LA is beyond me

        if you want to do the stats I can make it all purty?

        • DanKing

          is that a question?

  • sgq89

    in that case, we’ll just claim that we are!

      I agree :) Maybe one day I might get around to it, maybe in the next interlull if you remind me :)

    The guardian did a table for the whole of the 20th Century on this basis.
    Arsenal were top.

    not a great deal of diff between ouselves & MANURE in terms of games won in this period given that theyv’e spent a shed load winning eleven titles to our three in this period-they like liverpool have dominated almost two decades yet we are “in touch”to some degree despite all their dominance-if & it’s a big if ,that all things come to an end=hopefully it will be our turn to surge ahead-then just like last century.we will be the true kings!up the arse!!

    It is very telling that it is the clubs that have never been relegated from the premiership, that are the ones which challenge for the CL places. Man City are the anomoly to this but thats what happens when you throw almost 1/2 £billion at a problem.

    I don’t know about a Guardian article, but the Independent did one 11 years ago on the 20th century:

    http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/arsenal-are-the-top-team-of-the-century-742275.html

    Arseweb had broken this down by year and tabled all the data (http://www.arseweb.com/99-00/century.html) but unfortunately that site has reverted back to a digital vacuum. I think I saved their data on another computer but I’d have to look. Anyway, the methodology is laid out in this article so if someone wants to check their calculations they can, and can update it for this last decade. Arsenal would still come out tops, methinks, but if not it’s a close run thing between us and Manure. Everton was the third best of the 20th century, this I remember.

    Interesting including MK Dons there – I’m sure fans of AFC Wimbledon would argue that the historical ‘right’ to those points belong to them! (I’m not making the case myself, just pointing it out).

    Most of the names I recognise as having been in the Premier League at one time or other, but when were Swindon there? That seems very odd to me – don’t remember them at all.

      I didn’t chose the names of the teams, it’s the way it was set up on my app but you make a good point :) I guess the people who do these things don’t tend to look that deeply in to it.

      I remember Swindon having one year in the Premier League…this is from wikipedia:

      “Swindon progressed well during the 1991–92 season, Glenn Hoddle’s first full season as manager, and just missed out on the Second Division play-offs, having briefly led the table in the autumn. A year later they beat Leicester City 4–3 in the new Football League Division One play-off final to achieve promotion to the FA Premier League — bringing top-division football to the club for the first time.[12]“

        Maybe this is why I remember them lol:

        “They were relegated after recording only five wins, conceding 100 goals and have never returned to this level — the latter record has yet to be broken. One of the few success of the season was that they scored the most goals (4) past champions Manchester United in the league that season.”
