In the aftermath of Crystal Palace's 5-0 thumping of Aston Villa on the final day of last season, even manager Oliver Glasner said the summer may be coming at the wrong time.
They have not won a Premier League game since.
In the 155 days following that victory - their sixth in seven matches during a remarkable conclusion to the campaign - Palace have:
Sold their best attacker, and one of their best defenders
Scored just five goals, the fewest of any side in the league
Failed to win a single top-flight game, enduring their worst start to a season since 1992-93
Dropped into the bottom three
So, after Monday's 1-0 defeat by Nottingham Forest, what has gone so wrong at Selhurst Park?
