#5 Sunderland: 2005-2006 season
As bad as the 2002-2003 season was for Sunderland, their very next season in the Premier League was horrendous even by their poor standards. Despite coming off their rousing win in the Championship, Sunderland went back down again.

They started the season badly, losing the first five games before they finally snatched a draw. They went on to improve on their 2002-2003 record-setting standards, by going on to slump to new lows in terms of wins, points, and even losses, losing 29 out a possible 38 games, beating their record of 27 losses.
They won just three matches, with the first win of their season coming on September 25, and their second on January 21st. Manager Mick McCarthy was eventually fired in March after failing to win a single home game and was replaced by Kevin Ball, who guided The Black Cats to their first and only home win. They were eventually relegated and then went on to win the Championship, again.
