Quote: I don't blame you at all regarding what you mentioned regarding that worse case scenario with Birmingham City. It probably would be difficult for you to even get enjoyment from the Premier League if the worst happened.


In a typical English style Football season, does only one team get promoted to the Premier League or can more than one team get promoted?

Well Birmingham City are in the second division so outside of the premier league.


Every year the top two teams based on the league (46 games in the championship) will get 'automatic' promotion. Then the teams ranked 3-6 will go into a play off,


3rd will play 6th in a 2 legged Semi final

4th will play 5th in a 2 legged semi final


The winners of these 2 games will then play a one off game to decide who gets the third promotion spot.


So every year 3 teams are relegated from the premier league and 3 teams are promoted to it.
