BREAKING NEWSSouthampton are RELEGATED from the Premier League after 3-1 defeat by Tottenham - and set unwanted record even worse than Derby County!

Southampton have been relegated from the Premier League after just 31 games - a new record.

Tottenham hammered the nail into the coffin with a 3-1 win over the Saints in north London on Sunday afternoon - thanks to a brace from Brennan Johnson.

It means the Saints make an immediate and abject return to the Championship less than 11 months after they sealed promotion via the play-offs over Leeds at Wembley.

In truth Southampton have never looked like staying up - they only collected one point in their first nine games and have won just two Premier League matches all season.
