Ten incredible records in Premier League which will never be broken in future
5. Lowest attendance
(3,039 – Wimbledon 1–3 Everton – Selhurst Park, 26 January 1993)
Perhaps the safest bet on this list, it would take a minuscule team to gain promotion or some sort of protest for less than 3,000 people to watch a game in the world’s greatest league.
Both of the above situations seem distant as even Championship clubs are also with hefty cash in their pockets, and have pretty stadiums.
6. Oldest player
(John Burridge – 43 years and 162 days for Manchester City vs QPR, 14 May 1995)
Brad Friedel, Mark Schwarzer and Teddy Sheringham were old during the backends of their career? Or the new generation would be wondering that Ryan Giggs was the oldest player to feature for a Premier League club.
But no, it is John Burridge who has the record of being the oldest player in the league. Now, with the level of fitness required and the schedule demands can’t make you go eay beyond 35.
Hence, we think, it would take some exceptional case to overachieve this in future.
