Some pretty big teams have been in League Two in recent years. Portsmouth and Coventry would be in with a shout as well

We are above the worlds first professional football club - Notts County.

Also.. is there any other team in the league with at least a century history that has never been relegated?

I think there are only about a dozen clubs on the planet that can claim that, with no others in England. Inter Milan are probably the biggest hundred year+ club never to be relegated, with a couple of Irish sides and Maradona's Bocca Juniors. Glasgow Celtic are the only other Great Britain team to meet the criteria (I think!)
