    Yes agree with them 3 clubs, a lot of the big club thing is all down to your age.

    Like with Wednesday I can remember them getting battered 8-0 by Newcastle & then relegated & for the rest of that period they’ve been championship & league one with a dump of a ground & have only made one promotion push during that time so it seems strange to me when people talk about Wednesday as a big club.

    I’ve never got the Birmingham thing either. They’ve had less time in the prem than Swansea, Stoke, West Brom & Burnley during my time watching football & there crowds in the championship aren’t much more than ours yet they often get referred to as big

    Birmingham are hyped up in the Midlands mainly by their own supporters. They are really envious of Villa.
    I've told of my one and only visit to Villa Park on the BBS before. As the bus neared the ground, the conductor who was
    obviously a Bluenose, shouted " Hall of memories." Have to say, the many Villa fans on the bus, took it in
    good part and we're all laughing as they got off.
