Another season over - time for the report cards!

5. EVERTON: The achievements of David Moyes at Goodison Park are every bit as impressive as Fergies at Old Trafford when you consider the difference in budgets. Yakubu was in good form for the toffeemen and for a while it looked like Champions League football next season was a possibility. Grade B+

7. BLACKBURN ROVERS: While Mark Hughes will be disappointed that his side didn't make it into Europe for next season he and his chairman will have been delighted with the success of star striker Roque Santa Cruz. Cruz paid only £3.5 million for the Paraguayan from Bayen Munich and he hit 19 Premiership goals this season. Dropped points to the likes of Birmingham, Fulham and Reading though . Grade C+

8.PORTSMOUTH: Pompeys season will be best remembered for their exploits in the FA Cup rather than their League run. However David James had another brilliant season between the posts for Portsmouth. Grade C-

9. MANCHESTER CITY: What a season for supporters of City!? After an amazing first half of the campaign the men in blue looked destined to take a Champions League spot but after things dipped Sven received his marching orders. Grade: C+

10. WEST HAM UNITED: After their lucky escape last season hammers will be delighted with how this season fared. Football fans everywhere were delighted to see Dean Ashton back playing and the big man contributed 10 league goals in an impressive campaign for the men from East London: Grade C-

11. TOTTENHAM: Having won the League cup with victory over Chelsea Premiership form however inconsistent

12. NEWCASTLE UNITED: Another Premiership side who changed managers mid-stream Kevin Keegan returned to football after big Sam Allardyce lost the Magpies supporters. Keegan took a while to get going but with Michael Owen (RIGHT) back scoring again theres hope for the future. Grade: D+

13. MIDDLESBROUGH: Having lost Yakubu to Everton there was genuine fear at the

14. WIGAN ATHLETIC: After a shaky start Steve Bruce took over at the JJB and as a result the side went from strength to strength. Wigan took points off Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal this season and I for one was delighted that they secured another top flight season. Grade: C+

15. SUNDERLAND: For a while during the season it looked as though the magic of Roy Keane was beginning to wear off. Somehow (and thanks mainly to home form) the black cats managed to hold their heads just above water this season. Having sepnt £9 million on goalkeeper Craig Gordon it was obvious that Keane was expecting a season of chances for the other side! Kenwyne Jones was excellent for the northern outfit scoring seven league goals though the introduction of Andy Reid in January was also a good move by the gaffer: Grade: D+  

16. BOLTON: Still perhaps one of the hardest sides to watch playing though fair dues to Gary Megson for turning around the side's ill fortune after the departure of Nicholas Anelka. Grade: D-

17. FULHAM: The seasons end was nothing short of a fairytale for the West London side as they won four out their last five games (three of those away from home). Jimmy Bullard's return to fitness came at just the right time but while they'll be celebrating on the bank of the Thames for some time Fulham have a mountain of work to do if they want to stay in the top division next season. Grade: D- 

19: BIRMINGHAM CITY: When the blues lost 5-1 to Aston Villa on April 20th in a game they had to get something from you just knew their goose was cooked in the Premier League. James McFadden was a good addition to the side but in the end their poor start to the season cost them dear. A big club though who should bounce back. Grade: E

20: DERBY COUNTY: The worst side the Premiership has seen in it's history. They make a good case for allowing only two teams to win promotion each season. Relegated this time last year! Grade: NG
