Quote ="Saint Simon"You are mistaken my friend, a big club is not measured on long term success, or average attendace now our is more than theirs, or on junior/academy development, or stadium now they are regulary evicted but is based on your club being called Wigan.'"
I never knew Wigan were supposed to be the yardstick by which all other clubs were measured in terms of being a "big club"
So in reality there is only one "big club" while everyone else is a medium club. Strange then that this "big club"........
1. Went bankrupt and now plays in a rented football stadium and has to also hire stadium facilites in another town off another medium sized or dare I say it even "smaller club" to get by when the "small football club" has priority.
2. Has won one league title in the last twelve years.
3. Only ever played at the old Wembley
4. Currently lies ninth in the league table
5. Coach under big pressure possibly facing the sack if results don't pick up quickly.
I'm so glad I got it wrong. I'm quite happy being a part of a "medium sized club" any day.
