Who is the biggest underachiever in football? I'm inclined to go for Sunderland (they average more than Chelsea, Everton and Spiurs). They consistently get huge crowds despite being permanently crap, and every year they seem to either get relegated or just scrape another season in the top flight.

Birmingham City, a club like that should not be anywhere near the bottom of the Championship. Sheff Wednesday and Bristol City as well?
