    Might we lose...

    ... two of our PL records from THAT season?

    Currently Sheff U have beaten our 11 point tally so we keep that one. They have also scored 22 which is more than our 20 goals in that season.

    Goals against. With 11 games to go, they have conceded 72. Just 17 short of our 89. That record could well be in "danger". Based on goals conceded per game, they are on track for 99.9 (100 on the cards?)

    Goal difference. 11 to play and they are at -50. Our "record" is -69. Extrapolated over a 38 game season they are currently on target for -70.

    Interesting. I was thinking along those lines earlier

    Also there is a slim chance that Almeria will break our European futility record, as they have no wins, 9 points with 11 games to go in Spanish La Liga

    If im correct, if Forests poor run continues and they get a sizable points deduction they could finish bottom which I think would reinstate them as the official worst premier league team in history by finishing bottom most. I think its joint at the moment with Sunderland. I think anyway but stand to be corrected.

    One can but hope, Sith, one can but hope. However, I fear any point deductions for the Red Dogs, as well as for Everton's 2nd charge, won't be implemented this season... according to something I read online a couple of weeks ago.

    I'm sure they will. They will appeal, if relegated, then drag it on.

    BUT, we might be saved by... Forest. Depends how naughty they've been. I suppose they could inherit 'our' song, but I'm not sure they can count to 21

    If they use their fingers they can get to 12
