Swindon Town have conceded the most goals in a Premier League season and remain the only side to have cleared 100. Ipswich Town are next on the list, but in terms of a 38-game season, Derby unsurprisingly top the list, shipping 89 in their 07/08 season.

The first few weeks of the campaign left many wondering whether Luton or Sheffield United – or both – could actually break Derby County’s record tally of 11 points. Luton quickly eased those concerns and even Sheffield United, after a horror start to the campaign, managed it after their 24th match of the season.

But the Blades are edging towards another unwanted piece of history. Having conceded 93 goals in their first 34 games at a rate of 2.71 per game (the most in Premier League history) to surpass Derby's 38-game record, Sheffield United are on course to ship more than 100 goals by the season’s end – breaking Swindon's record of goals conceded in any season.
