We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!

everton?
That's a good guess, Gooner, as I think Everton are second only to the Arsenal in longest run in the top division. But I'm almost sure - without cheating on the Internet - that they won the title in the 80s at some point during our "dark ages." They might well have won it earlier as well.
My guess - Stoke City?
Everton have won the league seven or eight times so it isn't them
It is not Stoke either
This year will be this paticular team's 73rd season in the top flight(not consectutive) without a title
Okay - second guess. Wolves?
I think it is Bolton. I think Wolves won the title in the 50s.
Finally... the correct answer
It is Bolton Wanderers
I asked an american friend of mine last night in the car and he guessed Bolton within ten seconds... you guys stink
