Why is it?
drop the s.
'Why i it?' That makes no sense... I'll get my coat and for reference I don't have a clue either.

Well I assumed it was sPatula Clark. Then I realised I'm also illiterate and well as thick, since it is spelt Petula not Patula.
So anyway back to kitchen utensils, why spatula?

Penny drops. Thanks Batch. I think you've got it there. (Was far too cryptic for me.)

Where do people get these "I was told he's on £Xk per week" comments from?
There's no way he's on that amount of money.
The bloke sat in front of me.....

I didn't realise it changed it automatically, I just thought there was a joke I'd missed somewhere and that's why everyone was calling him spatula.

With regards to him at Chesterfield, I was told he was on 6 grand a week, and was the player Di canio stretched the budget to get. Richie, i'm sure is one of the top earners but i've not heard how much. Was also told that Douglas was the top earner here last season,again 6k was the figure but that was from a different source. The same person said Billy Paynter was offered 8k a week to stay here but gets 10k at Leeds.

I would say that Notts County are a bigger club than we are in all honesty, but we are a bigger than Brentford, Col U and Orient IMO.
Notts county might be the oldest club in the league but that does not make them a big club, I would base club size on current fan base & potential fan base in which case I would say we are defiantly a bigger club than notts

This which club is bigger argument comes up all the time. We should have a thread to settle once and for all which clubs are bigger than us and which clubs we are bigger than. Then we can just refer to the list when we need it.

What we need is for one of our statistically minded members (and there seem to be plenty) to come up with a graph listing all clubs and assessing their size, with appropriate weighting given to stats such as average gate, wage bill, what league they are in and the state of their finances.

None of that really matters. It's what the fans think that counts. The only way to settle it is to do an opinion poll of all fans asking them to grade each team.
Reading, for example, will always be smaller than Swindon. Makes no difference whether they happen to be in a higher league, have bigger gates, etc.... At some point in the, not to distant, future Swindon will be above them again.
Same goes for Oxford - even when they were in the (old) 1st division they were still a smaller club than Swindon.
