Can someone ruro 'splain to an American what the cutoff table position is in the epl to be considered a big club
Here you go my friend :)
Yes we are indeed so yankified that revenue is now the definition for big. When I say we I mean watchers of the premier league which is no longer predominantly flag related thanks to globalisation.
>>158310483Big clubs don't always finish in perfect order ahead of everyone else, even in this gay modern football world where money from international competitions and business makes national leagues increasingly lopsided. Similarly, the Lakers and the Celtics or whatever don't always reach the NBA finalsThe clubs everyone knows are Liverpool, United, Arsenal, Chelsea, ManCity ... Tottenham for whatever reason ... Villa, Everton, Newcastle. These are the ones people usually universally recognize as "big". They tend to be very rich as wellLeeds would be next in line, I guess? Nottingham are in a weird position since they somehow have 2 CLs, but aren't seen as a national powerhouse
>>158310483Well now, things are shifting and people are even talking that there is no such thing as a big six or that the big six isn't what it used to be
>>158312696I was just thinking or I just realized that, like, when I want to read about what the people are saying about sports there is really nowhere else to go than 4chan. I wanted to avoid this place, but there's no way, there are no other places where you can talk sports with knowledgeable people without greuiling sign up and account creation processes So I'm back, despite being now, despite facing permanent lifelong poverty here if I am not successful in getting home
In reality, you're only a big club if you can buy another prem team's star player.
>>158312840But I'm hurt. I can't guarantee that I'll ever recover the spirit and fire that made me such a standout poster. Being relegated, to use a soccer term, or facing the prospect, to lifelong poverty, homelessness, and menial labor in a foreign country is...painful, to say the least. Please god help me get home
>>158312843I miss you so much that I'm basically crying right now. I miss home so much please pray for me
>>158312879>I can't guarantee that I'll ever recover the spirit and fire that made me such a standout posterWelp, That didn't take long Feels good bros
>>158312840>>158312879>>158312897>>158313732Wat
>>158313819The Bangladeshi delivery guy is losing his mind.
>>158310483Being a big club isn't about sporting prowess, its about how many sponsors you have, how much money they give you, and how many thirdies like your posts on social media.
>>158313862Thanks man So would be so much better without flags
>>158314863/sp/*
>>158311677>now
I pray to see Tottenham and ManU get relegated just for the memes
>>158310483Only Brighton and Sunderland, I'm afraid.
>>158315786it REALLY makes you think
>>158315792It really does....
>>158310483A "big club" is defined as any that is owned by an Americhad or an Arab
>>158315799>arsenal doesnt even have the best fan support in london
>>158312840Get checked with a therapist. You dont sound fine
