    So, are we talking about nearly stuff or actual success?

    I class success as winning stuff. Trophies of whatever kind.
    And again, going by that I'd say it was fairly even.

    If you want to come back with how many champions league games they've both had then Hall wins hands down.
    Is this what you meant rather than being successful?
    And your are not trying to annoy people? Okay...we didn't win anything but we were more successful as we were competing! It's quite obvious...and the only reason you would say otherwise is to hold on to your bizarre pride at having a different opinion!

    If I'm wrong I'll admit it but success does not mean nearly winning trophies.
    If success is construed as finishing higher in the league than another team without winning it then Hall wins.
    If it means getting to Fa Cup finals without winning it, then Hall wins.

    If it means playing more attractive football over a period of time then Hall wins.

    If it means actually winning trophies then arguably it's fairly even or maybe Ashley just sneaks it. I'm not too sure.
    Is this me being annoying?
    If so then accept it as that because that's how I see it all.

    Is that because Assley relegated us twice to win two Championship titles. That's not success.

    Relegation is far from success. It's the opposite.
    Winning the championship twice is real success on a lesser scale to winning the premier league or champions league but nevertheless it's a success.
