Cheers. It would be Man City then who would have been the biggest so not unprecedented for a genuinely big team to drop down but still a huge shock if Villa suffered the same fate.
If Villa go down this year or next would they be the biggest team in recent years to have played in League 1? I can't think of any others bigger. Villa are definitely bigger than Dirty Dirty Leeds despite what their deluded fans might think. Did Newcastle or Man City drop to the 3rd tier?
