That's like asking which number is the odd one out, 1,3,5,9,11,12 or 15?

Of course it's still you lol.

Being undefeated in 4 (no wins) with a hard earned point at lofty Huddersfield is a great indicator of who rules the roost in the west whereas doing the double of Utd is just part of a 4 year blip for the Swans.

You can keep calling yourselves the biggest club in the west of you like and you can wallow in that yet to be unlocked potential but the rest of us will crack on with the actual football.

Where are the rest of your season ticket holders by the way? :oops:

Definitely not Plymouth
When they were in the Championship and punching above their weight home fans only averaged around 11 thousand.The travelling support often swelled gates to 14/15 thousand so that gave a false reading.

Right now the biggest in the South West has to be Swansea. Premier league, currently getting bigger crowds than us (despite the ridiculous official figures quoted for us), and with players much better than ours. At the moment they are miles ahead of us, and will be for quite a while yet. With the money now available in the PL, we may never catch up with them.

I'd say Manchester United by support and turnover.

If all are in the same division then it's cardiff Bristol city then rovers jacks argyle. Clubs bounce from division to division and crowds will wane and grow like you are seeing right now with the city and the jacks. That gap is closing but we have always been the biggest club in Wales and still are. :bluescarf: maybe biased just a tad but if you look at the last twenty years it's a non contest.

Mate, only one person has actually said Cardiff so far. Me, I'd say Man United edge us for size ;-)
