2. Aston Villa
3. Bolton
4. Blackburn
5. Middlesbrough
6. West Brom
7. Everton
8. Man United
9. Sunderland
10. Fulham
11. Newcastle
12. Tottenham
13. Arsenal
14. Man City
15. Liverpool
16. West Ham
17. Portsmouth
18. Hull City
19. Chelsea
20. Wigan Athletic

[CosmicHotspur]

I think that's right too - current Premiership clubs in order of formation.

Not the oldest clubs in the whole Football League though, the oldest is Notts County.

How old the clubs are.

Bang on. If it wasn't for Stoke, wouldn't have known but it is one of those things that makes sense when you know.
