The Premier League Losers Belt · current holder

Wolverhampton Wanderers

Wolverhampton Wanderers picked it up on April 25, 2026, losing to Tottenham Hotspur 1–0. To get rid of it, they have to win a game.

Same schedule, same rules, flipped: the Losers Belt passes to whoever loses to its holder. It's the crown nobody wants, and some clubs have worn it for years. It started on September 8, 1888, when Bolton Wanderers lost to Derby County.
