There are many different ways of defining a big club. Trophies won, size of the fan base, size of the stadium, years in existence, the wealth of the owners(s), and so the list goes on.
So taking the club from near the foot of the Championship and into the Premier League inside a couple of seasons happened by sheer chance did it? :ffsparr:
It all depends on how one defines "bigger club" really, what is certainly true is that they have enjoyed far more seasons in the top division than the Albion have.
Sorry but there are threads about various other candidates, so l'm just joining the throng, and starting one about my man. :yawn:
The one time heir apparent to many on NSC should GP ever move on, but seemingly less support for him on here now.
Very similar footballing philosophy to you know...
