Bairnardo Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 I could also ask on what possible categories are Leeds bigger than Hibs?* *Awaiting crowd w**k answer.History, budget, stadium, following, higher standard of football, better players, big name manager.What do Hibs have?Not being a dick about this here, just cant think of one single measure where Hibs are on the same plane as Leeds Utd. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Leeds are a smaller club than hibs, they must be very far away, m8. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do Hibs have? Not being a dick about this here, just cant think of one single measure where Hibs are on the same plane as Leeds Utd. I'm not being a dick either, but I would have to argue that Hibs have just as big a following and play at a higher standard of football. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also average league home supports of over 32k. Sky Sports done a "bigness" table of English teams and found them to be 12th in 2016. Hibs wouldnt be the 11th or higher. That much I am sure of. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 According to Pat Bonner 4-4-2 is a really progressive formation. “Biscuits” is talking about cutting socks. When did Sportsound turn to complete twaddle? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if Leeds were still in League 1 (or whatever it is now) would the argument still be the same? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 So if Leeds were still in League 1 (or whatever it is now) would the argument still be the same?Does bigness of club change?

Savage Henry Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 You've answered your own question by mentioning Bonner and Preston. While you are, of course, right, that doesn’t explain why Willie Miller, who has been on Sportsound for the past 67 years, wont refer to Sam Cosgrove by his name, and just called him “the goal machine” three times while describing a St Mirren penalty. Edit: Biscuits, describing something he’s just seen. “He’s put through lovely by Curran”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. You need to drop this mental crusade. Leeds are bigger than Hibs in every conceivable sense and have been since at least the 1950s. There's not even a debate here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
