Who's bigger, Everton or Newcastle?

I think the whole 'bigger club' debate died with the emergence of Chelsea. In the good old days it was an easy argument but now it's meaningless, there's no such thing as big clubs anymore, just big owners or stock market listings.

We are all Geordies now, it's just that some of us are more Geordie than others.

Us obviously. We have won a lot more, plus they only have huge amounts of fans, because they have a huge catchment area and only really Sunderland to compete with. They are a 1 club city, plus all the small towns to the North and South of Geordie land. We have a one the most successful clubs in the world, less than a mile away from us and still fill our ground and away sections. Celtic and Rangers have huge numbers of fans but that's because they have nobody to compete with, plus both clubs push the whole sectarian thing which attracts moronic bigots on both sides from Ireland and Scotland. Red Star Belgrade usually don't get more that 7000 to 10'000 for normal league matches, however filled their ground for the Europa league games and the away games. Almost everybody in Southern Croatia and the ethnic Croats in Bosnia support them, yet they struggle to get 10'000 for most games. You have to look at what attendances a club gets consistently, in general we sell every home game and away game out. City couldn't even sell out the semi final a few years ago at home when the tickets were £20, we sold out at home and out tickets were like 35 quid. In general the biggest clubs in the league are United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Everton and Spurs.

That was so cringe to watch. They all know the answer and Just skirt around it.

By their logic, when we get this new ground we’ll be a bigger club than them?

Newcastle are the bigger club for sure...wait a minute what's that?

You can see it in their face as they say it something not straight about it. If it wasn't the stadium it would be the next thing that's bigger they'd focus on.

No it's just a 'let's laugh at this video' thread. Why's no one getting it. My pictures explain it as well if it wasn't clear enough already.

There are various different measures when it comes to the big club debate but I the following are key:

Trophies
Top flight seasons
Stadium size
Fanbase
Recent history (successes, trophies/European competition/league placement, and failures, like being relegated)


The only thing Newcastle have over us is Stadium size. Once we are in Bramley Moore they won't even have that.

OK, I give up. What does this mean?

Easy to think that you are a big club when you are the only one in a city, isn't it.

Everton would be 3 or 4 times the size we already are if it wasn't for a certain other club.

when Newcastle last won the FA Cup, TV was black and white.
When they last won the League BBC (radio) and the future Queen Elizabeth were both 4 years old
