The '''1999–2000 FA Premier League''' (known as the '''FA [[Carling brewery|Carling]] Premiership''' for sponsorship reasons) was the eighth season of the [[FA Premier League]], and [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] secured their sixth Premiership title. Like the previous season, they lost only three league games all season. Unlike in 1998–99 season, they won by a comfortable margin – 18 points as opposed to a single point.

Their only disappointment of the season came when they lost their defence of the [[UEFA Champions League|European Cup]] following a 3–2 defeat against [[Real Madrid]] in the quarter finals. Manchester United had withdrawn from the 1999–2000 [[FA Cup]] to participate in the [[FIFA Club World Championship|FIFA World Club Championship]] at the request of the FA who wanted Manchester United to compete to support England's bid to host the World Cup.

[[Chelsea F.C.|Chelsea]] won the last FA Cup held at [[Wembley Stadium (1923)|Wembley Stadium]] before its redevelopment. The [[EFL Cup|League Cup]] final was won by [[Leicester City F.C.|Leicester City]], for the second time in four seasons. In Europe, [[Leeds United F.C.|Leeds United]] reached the [[UEFA Cup]] semi-final and [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] were on the losing side to Galatasaray in the [[2000 UEFA Cup final|UEFA Cup final]].

In Europe, [[Leeds United F.C.|Leeds United]] reached the [[UEFA Cup]] semi final and [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]] were on the losing side to Galatasaray in the UEFA Cup final.


Only one newly promoted team suffered relegation: [[Watford F.C.|Watford]], who finished in last place, and achieved a record Premiership low of just 24 points (a record since broken by Sunderland (twice) and by Derby County, Aston Villa and Huddersfield Town), despite a decent start to their campaign which saw them beat both Liverpool (at Anfield) and Chelsea. The most successful promoted team was [[Sunderland A.F.C.|Sunderland]], who finished seventh in the final table and spent much of the season pushing for a place in European competition. [[Bradford City A.F.C.|Bradford City]], back in the top division for the first time since 1922, secured their Premiership survival on the last day of the season with a 1–0 win over [[Liverpool F.C.|Liverpool]]. The result meant that Liverpool lost out on a [[UEFA Champions League|Champions League]] place, and [[Wimbledon F.C.|Wimbledon]] were relegated after 14 years of top-division football. Second-from-bottom [[Sheffield Wednesday F.C.|Sheffield Wednesday]] were relegated in their penultimate game of the season, having spent 15 of the previous 16 seasons in the top division. Wednesday's season included an 8–0 defeat at [[Newcastle United F.C.|Newcastle]]. Amazingly [[Coventry City]] went all season without an away win but still managed to secure 14th place due to an impressive home record which saw them win 12 out of their 19 matches.

Twenty teams competed in the league&nbsp;– the top seventeen teams from the previous season and the three teams promoted from the [[1998–99 Football League First Division|First Division]]. The promoted teams were [[Sunderland A.F.C.|Sunderland]], [[Bradford City A.F.C.|Bradford City]] and [[Watford F.C.|Watford]], returning after absences of two, seventy-seven and eleven years respectively. This was also Bradford City and Watford's first season in the Premier League. They replaced [[Charlton Athletic F.C.|Charlton Athletic]], [[Blackburn Rovers F.C.|Blackburn Rovers]] and [[Nottingham Forest F.C.|Nottingham Forest]]. Charlton Athletic and Nottingham Forest were immediately relegated after a season's presence while Blackburn Rovers' seven year top flight spell came to an end and they were relegated just [[1994-95 FA Premier League|five years after winning the Premiership title]].

1999 treble winners Manchester United retained their league title, leading the table for most of the season and winning their final 11 games to finish 18 points ahead of their nearest rivals Arsenal. Leeds United took the third and final Champions League place to qualify for Europe’s top club competition for the first time since the mid 1970s, ahead of Liverpool, who surrendered a place in the Champions League with a 1-0 defeat at Bradford on the last day of the season, a result which saw the hosts survive their first top flight campaign for almost 80 years. Newly promoted Sunderland finished an impressive, while eighth placed Leicester City won the League Cup.
===Stadiums and Locations===

Newly promoted Watford were relegated in bottom place, followed by Sheffield Wednesday, who had been in the top flight for all but one season since 1984. The final relegation place went to Wimbledon on the final day of their 14th season among the elite.

The 1999–2000 FA Premier League (known as the FA Carling Premiership for sponsorship reasons) was the eighth season of the FA Premier League, and Manchester United secured their sixth Premiership title. Like the previous season, they lost only three league games all season. Unlike in 1998–99 season, they won by a comfortable margin – 18 points as opposed to a single point.

Manchester United lost their defence of the European Cup following a 3–2 defeat against Real Madrid in the quarter-finals. The club had withdrawn from the 1999–2000 FA Cup to participate in the FIFA World Club Championship at the request of the FA who wanted Manchester United to compete to support England's bid to host the World Cup. Chelsea won the last FA Cup held at Wembley Stadium before its redevelopment. The League Cup final was won by Leicester City, for the second time in four seasons. In Europe, Leeds United reached the UEFA Cup semi-final and Arsenal were on the losing side to Galatasaray in the UEFA Cup final.

Only one newly promoted team suffered relegation: Watford, who finished in last place, and achieved a record Premiership low of just 24 points (a record since broken by Sunderland (twice), Derby County, Aston Villa, Huddersfield Town, Norwich City (twice), Sheffield United (twice), and themselves), despite a decent start to their campaign which saw them beat both Liverpool (at Anfield) and Chelsea. The most successful promoted team was Sunderland, who finished seventh in the final table and spent much of the season pushing for a place in European competition. Bradford City, back in the top division for the first time since 1922, secured their Premiership survival on the last day of the season with a 1–0 win over Liverpool. The result meant that Liverpool lost out on a Champions League place, and Wimbledon were relegated after 14 years of top-division football. Second-from-bottom Sheffield Wednesday were relegated in their penultimate game of the season, having spent 15 of the previous 16 seasons in the top division. Wednesday's season included an 8–0 defeat at Newcastle. Amazingly Coventry City went all season without an away win but still managed to secure 14th place due to an impressive home record which saw them win 12 out of their 19 matches.

As well as Premiership champions Manchester United and runners-up Arsenal, third placed Leeds United qualified for the 2000–01 Champions League. UEFA Cup places went to fourth placed Liverpool, F.A Cup winners Chelsea, and League Cup winners Leicester City.

Promoted to the Premiership for 2000–01 were First Division champions Charlton Athletic, runners-up Manchester City and playoff winners Ipswich Town. For the first time since the formation of the Premiership, all of the promoted teams had been members of the Premiership before.

Teams

[edit]

Twenty teams competed in the league – the top seventeen teams from the previous season and the three teams promoted from the First Division. The promoted teams were Sunderland, Bradford City and Watford, who returned after absences of two, seventy-seven and eleven years respectively. This was also Bradford City and Watford's first season in the Premier League. They replaced Charlton Athletic, Blackburn Rovers and Nottingham Forest, who were relegated to the First Division. Charlton Athletic and Nottingham Forest were immediately both relegated after a season's presence, while Blackburn Rovers' seven-year top flight spell came to an end.

1999 treble winners Manchester United retained their league title, leading the table for most of the season and winning their final 11 games to finish 18 points ahead of their nearest rivals Arsenal. Leeds United took the third and final Champions League place to qualify for Europe’s top club competition for the first time since the mid 1970s, ahead of Liverpool, who surrendered a place in the Champions League with a 1-0 defeat at Bradford on the last day of the season, a result which saw the hosts survive their first top flight campaign for almost 80 years. Newly promoted Sunderland finished an impressive, while eighth placed Leicester City won the League Cup.

Newly promoted Watford were relegated in bottom place, followed by Sheffield Wednesday, who had been in the top flight for all but one season since 1984. The final relegation place went to Wimbledon on the final day of their 14th season among the elite.
