Reply With QuoteWright is spot on. It's not surprising Sturridge is getting criticism for turning down Newcastle for your lot as they are a far Bigger Club than you. Just compare attendances for starters.

Spouting more crap, saying it's better being a Newcastle hero than an Albion hero.
A hero,legend or what ever you call it is about the club you support not this club is bigger than this club.
Don't get this our club is bigger than your club.

Albion have got 4 other clubs within a five mile radius. Were doing ok for a small town, one of the 12 founder members, won the FA cup 5 times, won the league and many more trophys.We also are debt free.Originally Posted by ImTopMan

If you are classed as a big club based on the size of your home crowd, then Newcastle are a big club, if it's based on the amount of trophies you have won, then Newcastle are no bigger than us.

Just don't like this big club ego, to me Walsall are big club great fans and tradition. Same for any non league good clubs and fans.

You and wrighty are missing are the reason he wants to play for us, he simply wants to come home.
Playing for a club near Scotland just doesn’t appeal to him, nor playing for cockney **** owners toppy ol chap.

What a stupid post. Yes, Newcastle get bigger attendance but they’ve no local competition have they. Sunderland are hardly on their doorstep so any club situated where they are with that catchment area would get similar. Im guessing geography isn’t your strong point but we’ve Villa, Wolves, Blues and Walsall in very close proximity. As for the bigger club thing, another pointless argument as there are many clubs bigger than Newcastle as there are with many clubs so seems like you’ve made no point at all.

To be fair, Newcastle are 7th in the All-time League positions. Albion are 11th.
West Ham (TopMan's team) are 19th.
Those are the only relevant facts.
If we're 11th despite our "size" (if that's what matters) we've done wonders compared to West Ham who have more than twice our
potential fanbase.

Oh it's an attendance thing ok. So West Ham are bigger than Chelsea and Man City then?
