Suspect lots of players have been relegated twice !
Andy Yiadom has for a start... :wink:

Knew he had at least 1.

Hmm, There's quite a few I'd hazard a guess at having zero. Interesting* question.

I'd guess Baldock is the only other in the current squad who might.


I thought Morrison might have had one but doesn’t appear so.

He was my other thought, but seems like the sort of solid Champ defender who doesn't get relegated to L1, and doesn't get the chance to be relegated from the PL.

Everyone else has mainly played with us or been an up and comer.

Ejaria got 1 with Sunderland but isn't here currently.

Mr Baldock has 2 relegations. He was a member of the MK Dons squad which was relegated to Division 4 (League 2) in 2006 and a member of the Bristol City squad which were relegated to Division 3 (League 1) in 2013.

Incidentally Mr Baldock scored his first ever senior goal in a preseason friendly at Stadium MK in 2008. The opponents were Reading and Reading won 2-1.

Aluko at Hull


Mr Aluko has 2 definite relegations and a winding up.

Birmingham in 2008
Rangers when they went into admin and were then “wound up” in 2012 (he subsequently successfully appealed the decision to move his agreement to the new Rangers entity)
Hull City in 2015

I'd base it on whether they were in the first team squad.

So McIntyre - no.
Aluko?

Then in the IR relegation blame game rules, I'm afraid he counts.

Who'd have thought our shittest player would have one of the most relegations in the squad under their belt.

Actually, didn't Beijing Renhe get relegated last season? Yes. That's three and a wind up for the useless pcunt.

Kieffer Moore moves from Wigan to Cardiff.

Shrewd signing that, thought he looked good when he played against us.

Decent signing. I think he will suit a Neil Harris team.

Agree, fee was undisclosed, but hopefully it was a decent one which helps with Wigan’s struggles as well.

Hendo John Obi Mikel signs for Stoke.

Last season they hired Nathan Jones and wanted him to reduce the age of the squad, this season they have Michael O'Neill and have signed John Obi Mikel, James Chester and Steven Fletcher :?
