WBA are a no mark club. They use shit tactics, have a shit ground and shit players that belong in the third tier. Their manager is a total bellend who insists on wearing the whitest trainers known to man in an attempt to make it look as if he's flying to the Costa del Sol after the final whistle and rain, hail or shine wears the shittest baseball cap in an attempt to come across as a ''proper trainer''. Out of the 20 manager in the league the biggest dick of them all is without doubt Tony Pulis. I'm not even rattled by West Brom despite all of this, I just find them incredibly boring and wouldn't care in the slightest if there was some form of gas explosion which wiped out the Hawthorns and it's surrounding areas, it's no surprise that some of the most tedious and boring celebrities such as Adrian Chiles choose to follow this club up and down the country. Paris Saint-Germain I don't even think he's in the top half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimsby Town I reckon they're a bigger club potentially than the level they're playing at and it's comical that they ended up in non-league. I don't think Grimsby would look out of place in the Championship although they would be one of the smaller clubs. Millwall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 They are known as West Ham's fierce rival. It says a lot about the club when their fierce rivals are used to explain who they are. Swansea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toony Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Decent club, not particularly big and have came a long way in a short space of time. I'd say they're a Championship level club, which is probably where they'll be next season anyway. SUNDERLAND Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirBalon Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 All I ever knew about Bournemouth growing up was that a lot of old people went there to the beach or retired there. The area does actually have a very nice beach for our standards in this country. Add a couple of palm trees and a small hut selling cocktails and hey!!!! You could almost feel you're on a Dutch beach or something like that. Like I said... I'm not ageist or anything like that, but there's too many oldies down there.

Juventus Absolutely massive club but curiously has much more support outside its city and is second in that sense to Torino. One of the eternal European legendary clubs even though in Europe's premier competition they've mainly always underperformed for their status.

Anderlecht I'm not 100% sure... but I'm pretty sure they're the biggest team from Belgium in terms of winning stuff. So they're probably as big as you can get in Belgium, which might put them around the level of a mid-table Ligue 1 side I suppose.

Alianza Lima Second most successful club in Peru, though no league titles in eleven years and two runners-up places in the past ten years looks like they're a club who's underperformed in recent years, or at least it does from the outside looking in. No international tournament wins and two semi-final places, both in the 70's makes me think they're not all that good against bigger South American sides. In some ways, they have similarities with Liverpool, minus the international honours. Celtic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan Posted October 18, 2017 Administrator Share Posted October 18, 2017 Made their name by being the club with the worst Premier League season ever. Don't remember much of them in the 90s or early 00s but remember a few games against them. Used to have decent players like Paulo Wanchope and Stefano Eranio.

I heard about their derby when I was very young and considering that they are not even english clubs that definitely means a lot. Later on I got to know that the likes of Crespo and DiStefano played for River Plate with rich history and great success. I think River Plate has to be the biggest south american club (or atleast the most popular one that I have heard of ) along with Boca. Mohun Bagan Should get more recogination.

How amazing is all that! Club Atlético Peñarol Its not just their football though, they also have some great bands like No Te Va Gustar and El Kinto. For a nation of their size and population, the glory they have overall is remarkable. For me the big overachievers in South America are Paraguay. They have a 6M population but with literally 1 city in the whole country (Asuncion) that has a population of 500K. The rest of the country are villages or tribal areas and most don't even speak spanish. They speak Guarani. The glory they've had in the sport is incredible. To continue the game, Peñarol At times they were the strongest team in world football but as technology and money took over, they have declined and are seriously shite these days although capable of putting together good teams, The money is a huge factor as they've become almost a feeder club for Peruvian teams. That doesn't take away that they are still one of the most historic teams on the continent. Auckland City FC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
