Yea us playing hundreds of games less in the second division than every other team is a good thing.

I'm looking at win % in a table like this. Everton's is 45.8%

Only 3 teams have a win % above 50. They are

  • Arsenal 50.5%
  • Liverpool 56.8%
  • Manchester City 50.3% (who have by far the most games played of the 3)

Of the rest of the notable clubs,

  • United's is 49.7%
  • Chelsea's is 48.8%
  • Newcastle's is 47.4%
  • West Ham's is 44.0%
  • Leeds is 41.5%
  • Spurs is 46.5%
  • Aston Villa's is 42.7%

For context

  • Leicester's is 41.2% having played the 3rd most games all time in the 2nd division
  • Sheffield United is 43.1%
  • Birmingham City is 41.3%
  • West Brom is 43.0%
  • Ipswich is 40.8%
  • Sunderland's is 42.8%

There are three other teams from Burton above Burton Albion lmao.

All 3 of those other Burton teams are part of the lineage of Albion. Swifts and Wanderers joined to form Burton United, which later became a part of Albion.

Burton went through loads of teams in the early 20th century

Something interesting to compare between this link and the EPL All-time Table would be the least successful Championship team to have ever played in the EPL - Northampton Town!
