Middle of the road with the potential to get into the top twenty
If we expanded the Amex to 35k or so and got promoted we could be top 15 or so in the country.

Thats a precise number, where did you get that from?The number of empty East Stand (south end) seats for this year's play off was a bit of a damning indictment. We probably have 112,435 'followers' across the 2 counties, of whom just over a quarter will come and watch us live on a good day. If we're on TV (playoff) expect the Battle, Crowborough, Stonegate and Chichester massives to watch it in the pub, rather than come to the ground.

In fact you could probably add on another 3,327 living in the UK outside of Sussex to that number, plus 326 others around the world, rounding that number up to 116,000.
Where are you getting these numbers from?
It's an ages old calculation the club use to tot up matchday attendances at the Amex. Take the population of Lewes, multiply it by the population of Southease, subtract the population of Buxted and you're there.
Why does it matter?
You obviously haven't seen the size of my penis Mikey!
It depends how you define big,
In terms of training facilities, stadium, fan base and potential we are top 15 in the country.
In terms of club history, trophies etc we are about 35-40 in the country.
Some clubs are bigger than others.
As big as TB's hooter.
