being classed as a big club is a recent (last 25yrs) media concept, lapped up by fans of the so called big clubs, what exactly is a big club?
Trophies? - we've won some, not many but more than others
attendance? - always had decent attendances despite the myths spread by rags
Wealth? - well we have that
Stadium and facilities? - world class academy and campus and a modern stadium
History? - If history to modern football only equals trophies then modern football is an arse.
Present standing in the game? - Depends on whose narrative is being set, I would say we are fair to middlin in this respect.
It's all a load of bollocks, and who cares what others think of us I know how important city are and what rich if topsy turvey history we have had, if being classed as a big club means turning into twats like the rags, chelsea and tarquins I'll pass on the moniker, rather just get on with it winning stuff playing good football and doing what we do our way.
