That made me think

You're right about no relegation in American sports. I guess there are 2 kinds of winning in the Premier League. Title winning, pretty much only available to 2-3 clubs, and survival. For Norwich guess our title ambition is survival. Might get a bit tedious for the fans if every year is a slog
to finish 10th to 17th though.
