I've seen some League 2 teams up there - most notably Wycombe who qualified for the Euro Vase first season up in 2016 (I've not seen them play through the qualifiers yet). Curiously, Leeds finished 4th, Stoke have been comfortably mid-table for three years, and this season saw Arsenal AND Man Yoo relegated. Man Yoo were in administration at the beginning of the season and the Gunners fell foul of it the previous year. Now Arsenal have been docked points at the beginning of their Championship season for going down the pan AGAIN.
Seen Stafford Rangers in League 1 though. That's some acheivement having watched them a couple of times last season IRL.

Lowest team you've seen make it to the Premier League? Post #13
Can't think of a lower one off the top of my head, although one season the premiership had 3 teams with stadiums less than 10,000 (Blackpool, Rotherham and Bournemouth).
On a similar note - the current uefa cup holders are... Derby!
(Coventry are also double-winners)

Little Saint Albans made Championship at me once, quite an effort for them, so think that is even more impressing then a team from League One going PL.

In my game, Brighton got relegated to League 2 in their first season then stayed there for 2 years, but have now just come up to the Premiership via the playoffs.
Millwall have also made it all the way up from League 1.
Otherwise there's no real shocks. The top 4 AI-controlled teams were Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Blackburn and Man U in that order.
