Are Leicester now a bigger club than us??

You wouldn't believe the compliments I've gotten from Asian immigrants in the states when I wear my Everton jersey. Granted none of them know what an Everton is, but they love their Chang.
 
I live in Warrington and all the sports stores have racks of Man U, RS, City, Arsenal, Chelski. No and Everton kit in site.
 
I remember when Blackburn played us and went on to win the league, they were hoofing the ball into the stands from the half way line when there was loads of time on the clock, it was bad but they won. Outside the ground some girl Blackburn fan was giving Everton fans loads about how we're relegation fodder while they were so far out of our league now.
Somebody said to her "You'll be relegated before us" she laughed, and the rest is history. A lesson to be learnt right there.
 

Mark this Leicester will be relegated in the next five years. In fact, I have had a very good wager, that they finish in the bottom six next year, which is unfortunate because I appreciate their manager. However, it will not last even Notts Forest who won the league at the first attempt back and consecutive European Cups, managed by one of the all-time greats, eventually crumbled and fallen along way down.
Not belittling this season they were by far the best team, but longevity will always come out on top it always has in the long term.
Being a big club is not about how many tops you sell.

Isn't that the case. Apparently our biggest ever achievement was finishing 4th, and Martinez got us our biggest ever points tally.


Someone was saying how foreigners view our club. Well, many foreigners switch allegiance every other year. Them new 400,000 plastic Leicester "supporters" won't hang around for long. Man City have already lost a few "fans", and not only foreign but close to home who are disillusioned with the globalization of the Premiership and what it means to be a City fan these days.

always been confused about this obsession with being a 'big club'. I just want us to be successful and not acquire loads of tagger ons. Not bothered about what other clubs think. Spurs obsession with finishing above arsenal was embarrassing. Just because they were going to finish a couple of points above them without winning anything does not mean they are suddenly the bigger/better club. I'm not even sure what constitutes a big club.
 
Be interesting how their marketing team uses this summer, the amount of documentaries and feel good programmes about them will be on all over the world, if they play it right, they could milk it for what it's worth and become a household name the world over.
Leicester are not a bigger club than us in anyway, but in the modern Internet and sky/but age It doesn't take long to be a more recognisable club,
We need trophies fast
