Everton Football Club are an English professional association football club from the city of Liverpool. The club competes in the Premier League, the highest level of English football. They have competed in the top division for a record 108 seasons, they have played more top-flight league games than any other English team and have won the League Championship nine times—the fourth highest of any team.[2] Everton have remained in the top division since 1954, and were founding members of the Premier League in 1992.

Longest time since relegation
Of the current top-flight sides, Arsenal have gone longest without top flight relegation. Their last relegation was in 1913. On the upside, their last promotion to the top flight was earlier than that, so we all know they’re cheating.
Everton are second, last relegated in 1951, followed by Liverpool (1954).
Newcomers Blackpool haven’t been relegated since the last time they were here, which gives them a creditable donkey’s years since their last top-flight relegation in 1971.

Seven current top flight clubs have suffered relegation in the last ten years: City, West Brom (every other year), Sunderland, Newcastle, Birmingham, Wolves, and West Ham.

Having never been there before, Wigan are the only current incumbents never to have been relegated from the top flight.

And Arsenal have been relegated, they just c hanged their name after but its still the same club.

As for other teams, none come near i don't believe.

Man U and Spurs went down in the 70s and Man City, Villa and Chelsea have all been down within the last 30 years.

If i'm remembering right that is but can't be arsed to check.
