So because they won a bit before ww2 there a massive club we have in my life time competing at the same level always comfortably got bigger crowds than them. If you look post war we’ve spent more time in top division and achieved more in that time frame. As for wolves, In terms of size of fanbase no bigger than us.

Didn’t say they were massive but they aren’t tiny either like you made them out to be. There’s better examples of clubs for you to use rather than West Brom.

My two penarth worth. We are very similar sized clubs. Yes WBA have won a few things when Dino's roamed the earth, nice history but hardly relevant to today. Our all time averages are within a couple of hundred of each other WBA 19,516 Boro 19,864. What is more relevant is the last time Albion averaged over 30k was in 1959. Since then we have got more than that on 7 or 8 occasions and had 29 + on a couple of more, 27+ plus being the best WBA could muster. Sunderland fans really have a blank spot when it comes to Boro. I will acknowledge any day of the week that Sunderland have massive support, but you lot all think we are on par with Darlo, for crying out loud.

Ok, so West Brom piss over you historically but in the modern era you edge it in terms of crowds and achievements, although you really haven’t got much to shout about even in the modern times. You’ve had some decent teams during the prem era and their last real decent team was back in the 80s. You are pretty similar I agree, my post was directed more at the other Boro fan who was totally dismissing Albion as some nothing club. I’m a Villa fan by the way.

They're f***ing clueless. They have no idea of the dogfight they're getting into.

They will have a lot of money but also a high turnover of players. In this league you need a cohesive team all pulling together. Not easy for a newly relegated side but a fair few have bounced straight back…

what are the better examples then
 
£7.5 million for Coady apparently. I know they're going to receive good money for Maddison and Barnes but that seems like reckless overspending for him.

£8.5m for a 31 year old defender who they will need to replace if they go up seems a bit reckless to me.

Either way thanks for the money Foxes lol

All about going straight back up isn’t it tho. Doesn’t seem much long term planning.

I can’t decide what I think about the way they are going about it. Wasn’t their wage bill absolutely massive?

Desperate to go straight back up.

No I'm not. Every point I made is above is correct and you said most of the country agree re mags.

Are we smaller than the mags? Yes
Are we bigger than Middlesbrough? Yes
Are we an upper end championship club? Yes.

And you were too until you sold out. Free season ticket mags in the premier league. Thousands of them too
 
Peace said:
The mags are a much bigger club than us, so what?

We are a bigger club than Boro but who really cares.

We are a decent sized club, an upper championship club.
