The Relegation Curse

The team that sits at the bottom of the Premier League title on New Year's Day is almost assured of relegation.



There have been 19 Premier League seasons before the current one. Of the 19 teams who sat at the bottom of the Premier League table on New Year's Day, 16 have been relegated.



The only teams to escape relegation after being bottom of the table on New Year's Day were Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2010-11, West Bromwich Albion in 2004-05 and Southampton in 1996-97.



That's bad news for Bolton.
