That's an age thing, though.Always think of us as bigger than blackpool,bolton,blackburn,reading type clubs but not a big club like man u,man city,spurs,chelsea liverpool,arsenal bracket!
Big or small it's mainly about the fanbase. I would say that even the smallest 'big' club would have an average attendance of at least 20-25000 and a ground that could take at least 35-40000. On that basis the big clubs are the London 3 (possibly also West Ham), Manchester 2, Liverpool 2, Villa, Newcastle, Sunderland and Leeds. We're at the level below - or will be when we increase the capacity.
Clubs with 30k+ stadia have a higher standing in the football pyramid.

# Probaly in the bristol city,pompey,southampton cardiff bracket.but we have a great opportunity to grow with our catchment area,if the stadium can grow and the club keep prices competitive tickets,food,beer etc we could become bigger than the brizzies,pompey type clubs! But we are gonna have to welcome alot of plastics and remold them into proper fans!
