Sunderland (2005-06)
Having been promoted back to the Premier League as champions of the second tier with Mick McCarthy leading his side to a 94 point haul, Sunderland fans could have been forgiven for thinking it could be different this time. They were wrong.
Their total of 15 points at the end of the season was a record low and Arsenal’s Thierry Henry ended up scoring more goals than the entire Sunderland team.
