Sunderland and Forest have shown it can still be done

And with Teams like Sunderland and Forest in the Prem. (and indeed Brentford/Brighton/Leeds/Palace) It's certainly possible for a promoted side to take their place.

Albeit this season's crop of Hull, Coventry and Ipswich do look particularly bad.
