So um, norwich isn't great? I mean when the score is 2-0 with 36 minutes left and the announcers say Game Over - that is saying something.

They’re not bottom without reason! They’ve lost every game where they’ve conceded the first goal! They’re really bright going forward but they can’t defend for toffee.

With the exception of city, who played an out of sorts arsenal team, these are miles better teams than the others you’ve seen so far.

Hahaha! I thought you were joking because a persistent criticism non Americans have of your sports is that crap teams can potentially hang around forever stinking the league up.

If you finish in the bottom 3 you drop into the league below. The best two in that league go up automatically and 3-6 have a mini play off tournament to see who gets the third spot.

I don’t have a clue, it’s tens of millions. They get decreasing parachute payments for the first two years to help mitigate the higher wages they have to pay in the premier league.
 
Let me see...should I rekindle my support for New Castle tomorrow since it seems the game is being televised or just go for a father's day hike instead.
