    2.) Arsenal fans always bang on about how they've never been relegated, so I'll go with that
    3.) Jens Lehmann, Robert Huth - and I'm going to stick my neck out and say Ron-Robert Zieler was in the Man Utd squad for a couple of title-winning seasons

    Arsenal got relegated in 1913 and promoted back in very dubious circumstances after the war if you recall!
