Talking about Ipswich being a bigger club than Bournemouth.
He seems to have lost a hell of a lot of weight. Does anyone know if it's health related or something he has done himself? Hope he is ok. |  |

I saw a headline stating he had lost weight after relatives believed he had died. The implication I drew was that it was a change in lifestyle. I hope it is. |  |

Good news if it is a lifestyle change. | |

He's stopped drinking so much in the Marquis, no doubt lost a few pounds and saved a few pounds as well. |  | | |

Yes, looking a lot trimmer. He’s right on this occasion too. |  |

Indeed. He'd been looking like a stroke waiting to happen. |  |

In terms of history and fan base every club in the Premier League AND current Championship is bigger than Bournemouth. The only exception is possibly Oxford.
They are the equivalent of 1980s Wimbledon if 1980s Wimbledon played really good football. [Post edited 15 Apr 18:29]

They're basically Reading, history-wise. | |

Unfortunately the only people who care about what club won what is the fans of that particular club.
Players only care about being in the Premier League and if Spurs go down a club like Bournemouth will be more attractive an option than them.
The entire ‘big club thing’ is an argument that disappeared when Sky started to broadcast football. [Post edited 15 Apr 18:47]

Big club = can buy Premier League quality players
AFCB - big club
ITFC - minnow |  | | |

All these " big club " arguments and disagreements that spring up quite regularly, ignore one rather important thing. There are absolutely no definitive " rules " as to what exactly one is. Personally I find it term that's irrelevant. Some clubs are " big clubs " in their own minds of course. |  | | |
