I seem to remember reading somewhere that we have never fallen into bottom 3 in our four seasons in Premier League. Hard to believe! Is this true or did i imagine this.....?

West west west Sussex
and as a follow up question, from the other perspective:-

For how many weeks have the Albion been out of the bottom 6 of the Premier League?

After 1 game at the start of one season? Doesn't really count though.

It was after we lost our second game 0-2 against Leicester, but I’m fairly sure we were lifted out of the bottom 3 by someone (West Ham??) taking a pasting the following day.

Edit: Records indicate I’m wrong and we must’ve been bottom 3 after completion of all 2nd round of games.

18th on zero points after week 2 of 2017/18 season, same zero points as 4 other clubs, none of which were relegated, including Palace who were 19th, on the same -4 goal difference as us but lower because c is after b in the alphabet. West Brom were 3rd in the table on 6 points and were relegated as the bottom club at the end of the season.

BHA is one of them !!

I think the others are:
Everton, Liverpool, Man City & Man Utd

But happy to be corrected ....

The Gooners and Spuds haven't.

The stat is actually Man United, Liverpool, Everton, Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea & BHA have never been relegated from the premier league.

Brighton are the only side who have been promoted to the premier league but not relegated
