How many teams in England do you consider 'big' clubs?

[citizen_maine]

Define 'big'

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Define big.

Sunderland are big.

 

[MadchesterCity]

City
United
Arsenal
Liverpool
Everton
Chelsea
Spurs
Newcastle
Villa
Leeds?
West Ham?
Sheff Wed?
Sunderland?
Forest?
Leicester?

I think up to Villa , they are all definitely big enough to be considered a 'big' club. After that it gets a little fuzzy.

Wolverhampton Wanderers

or you could look at number of league titles - in which case replace Tottenham (2) with Sheffield Wednesday (4)

Huddersfield and Sheffield Wednesday.

York only ground I know to hold 500,000 on a match day

It's a pathetic discussion devised by the insecure glory hunters who have chosen a team who are no longer top dogs on the pitch but need to cling on to something to justify their glory hunting decisions. The majority of people who want these discussions believe there's only about 3 big clubs in the entire country.

Still trying to work out what that table is arranged by.

Who gives a fuck?

The rags claim to be the biggest club in the world but are the only one small-time enough to have supporters form a breakaway club (even building their toy-town stadium as a copy of old toilet) without their club falling out of the pyramid or a dramatic change of identity (crests,shirt colour, relocation etc).

Looks like it's most games played but it's hidden or the row is deleted.
