Look at some of the results for example in the Premiership, who's right is it to judge who is a big club or not...with this big club mindset being beaten by a little club which has happened quite a lot this season.The reason? Because all the teams are in their respective league by merit.End of. Teams are in their respective league whether they have a massive 50k seater stand or a little 5k seater stand, it makes them no different and to be honest a lot of what is said on here really riles me, it's like kids arguing and this really bugs me. When a Premiership plays a League One side, yes that's a big club v a smaller club. It doesn't take away the history, the trophies etc etc but it is a big fish v a little fish. Any team in the same league is no different to any other, just with different histories and different facilities.Jeez you lot make me mad, it's like little kids squabbling..

I dont agree. Yes, you're in the same league, but in the long run, you're nothing and never will be, unless some great manager (Clough) makes you grow into a club with status. Leeds have better facilities and will most likely bounce back to the highest echelon of football. That's not impossible considering the financial mess some topclubs are in. Brentford will most likely go down back to league two in a year or two, bounce back in another year of two... Although you're in the same league now, you'll probably never play Leeds again, you know that, and I know that.
so yea, Leeds big, Brentford small. Leeds 20000 a game, Brentford 5000 a game. And i'm not even beginning about the fame and status a club like Leeds still has in Europe. I'm living here in Belgium and even my grandfather knows Leeds (and he's by no means a footballfan).
So I dont agree, there's a difference between a club in crisis like leeds or a small club like brentford in ''top condition''.
