I've seen Croatia win the world cup, and now I've seen Lille winning the 2012/2013 champions league. What is going on here!?

Your managerial prowess is so great that your existence has shaken the very foundations of reality?

Greece at the Euro's? Wigan last year? Unrealistic, perhaps, but suprise winners happen more often than you think.

Norwich were 2nd in 13/14 in my own game and Stoke finished 6th! Thought i was the only one that this happened to.

One-offs happen sometimes in real life too. It's really only a realism issue if these kinds of results repeat themselves multiple times within the same save.

I find Stoke are usually finishing inside the top four on FM 13 and it's fucking weird...

It isn't really. FM is biased towards players with good physical attributes and Stoke is a team of powerful giants.

They finished 17th first season in my new game. Swansea finished 18th though. They were battling it out till the last day. I wanted to see Swansea stay up. Laudrup got sacked and then got the Dortmund job.

You still wouldn't expect them to finish ahead of teams like Arsenal, Liverpool and Spurs on a regular basis in the game. I've had them challenging many seasons for the league title which is just unrealistic and annoying.

The highest Stoke City have finished on my current save is seventh.

In eleven full seasons they've finished in 7th, 12th, 9th, 17th, 12th, 17th, 17th, 16th, 13th, 11th and 17th.

Well in Preferences there is option how fast games are generated/played... that affect cpu perfomance and games realism.
