West Brom have never been relegated from the Premiership, nor have Birmingham.

My answer was the correct one, methink!!

[Rob_the_Saint]

OK, point taken, should have said 'the premier division' or somesuch.

 

Any more ideas on no.s 3 and 4?

[ESG]

3 hockey of some sort or Conkers

4 airdrie

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Is four not Albion Rovers??

 

 

[Rob_the_Saint]

Four is a bit of a cheat really, English club, not in the Premiership.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Those teams are the only omni-present teams since the Premiership began.

 

Arsenal, unfortunately, are the only team never to have ever been relegated from the top division, despite finishing in the relegation zone back in the early 1900's.

 

They got a reprieve, and Spurs, who finished sixth from bottom, were relegated instead, hence the rivalry.

AFC Bournemouth

4. Airdrie

[GHA EFM]

Arsenal

[Colin Zeal EFM]

HE SAID "NOT" IN THE PREMIERSHIP YOU DOZY TWAT! AND ARSENAL DO NOT COME ALPHABETICALLY BEFORE AIRDRIE, ALLOA, ALBION ROVERS, OR AFC BOURNEMOUTH!!

 

 

[Rob_the_Saint]

Someone give Laz a geography lesson!

 

AFC Bournemouth is indeed the correct answer.

 

Just no.3 to go.
