Snap (literally and metaphorically) but your Art Deco clock is better than mine. Diana the huntress?

Burn it too.

I’m afraid it’s your obsequious 21st century Junior Bladey Inferiority Complex, sponsored by Coca Cola, that’s embarrassing.

There is a lot of Wednesday's 'massive' mentality in this thread. The claim we're a bigger club than Stoke, Southampton, WBA or Leicester is embarrassingly laughable. You'll start listing our 19th century haul next. I hope fans from other clubs don't read this arrogant bollocks.

I largely agree Robbie, although I could make an argument for us being a bigger club than Stoke and West Brom.
As for Pinchy's assertion that we are bigger than Leicester is a bit embarrassing to be honest.

Correct. Here's another.

Even with Stoke:

last 10 seasons in the Premier League and have played in Europe, who spent 20 years in the top flight from the mid 60s

and WBA

LAST 9/10 seasons in the top flight. Won both the League and FA Cup. Spend most of the 50s/60s/70s/80s in the top flight, finishing high up on several occasions.

I'm not sure how we're bigger than either?

You could make an argument for say Bournemouth or Huddersfield, but the teams quoted seem ridiculous.

One measure, but not the only one , of the size of a club is the number of its members. I think, given equal league standings and situations, we would have more fans than West Brom and Stoke. That may also apply to Leicester actually but not sure about that one. I think historically we are very similar although we have won more trophies.

I should really but it reminds me of the good times, it reminds me of the better times, Chumbawamba, John Prescott, jumpers for goalposts. Marvellous

Nice clock garniture.

It’s always nice to hear from our younger members who are unaware that football existed prior to Sky Sports. A refresher in football history and heritage would do them no harm though.
