Does anyone else think we're be the biggest club in that league?
I'm not saying football wise, i mean by history, ground, finance, support etc...
I can only think of Rovers and Notts County as maybe equal?

I was looking at the league and can't think of any team bigger than us. Oxford are a 'fairly' big club for that league but their be down  Biggest club in that league this season by far is Carlisle. Sleeping giants. |

we have a great history,but unfortunaty that means fuck all.we are the only former prem team to drop through the divisions.our crowds next season will be the way to judge how big a club we are in my opinion.

All depends on success on the field.
We could easily get an average crowd of 6k-7k if at the top of the league.

We may well be the 'biggest ' club, but what is infinitely more important is living up to the billing.

No....Bury for example if they stay up have won the FA Cup twice. Including a record score....the likes of Lincoln City have had more seasons in and around the second tier than us.
If Grimsby don't go up, they've had stacks of seasons in the top flight.....
We.ve go tinto L2 because as a club we are operating at that sort of level and in many ways non league level.
The injection of Power's cash has maybe staunched the spiral that would see us struggling to stay in the league next season.....but we'll just have to see on that.

Modern times Reg, not pre boar war Size of club tends to include history in my book. Bury have won the league we're leaving more recently than us. We need to accept that we're a small club, and are in L2 because that is what our crowd size a resources decree.....firstly it will be tough to stay in it and to get out of it, will need a major change in the way the club is run from top to bottom.. |
