Eventually he'll get pissed off with the lack of media attention and move on to maybe spurs or man utd.

Still won more trophies than Spurs in the PL era... I think I would prefer that to winning trophies 50 years ago.

Not really, kid, Rodgers is starting to be billed as an elite manager, he's gonna want to be at an elite club, elite clubs are on the back pages everyday, we're not, in fact we hardly get a mention. We beat Liverpool the other day, yet how it's portrayed in the media is that Liverpool lost, not we won. The media have an agenda to make sure the big 6 stay the big 6, whatever their position in the league, because that's where the money, the fame and the recognition is at.

Popular Post CosbehFox Posted 17 February 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted 17 February 2021 Can stick your big six up your arse. As along as we keep winning and making mugs of people who take pride from being in a ‘big six’, that’s good enough for me 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Scotch Posted 17 February 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 17 February 2021 Serious question, does anyone actually WANT to be considered part of the big six? It doesn't really mean anything, does it? Its a tag attached to you by the media that awards you more coverage but that brings with it more scrutiny, criticism and pressure to the team. Not to mention plastic fans from places like Africa that add nothing to our club but a skewed and warped appearance to who we actually are. I'll take finishing top 6 year in, year out without their mainstream acceptance quite gladly. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but then Tottenham are extremely, extremely borderline and barely squeeze in to make it a "six." It's insecurity in the knowledge they don't really belong at the top table either that has them lashing out and the nearest thing approaching, which is us. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, would rather be defined by merit than a marketing term. #foxesneverquit 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is quite clearly not true. I think that a lot of people are frustrated at being ignored by Sky, BT Sport etc. as part of their agenda of a "big 6" despite out performing them in the league for the last season and a half. It will be the same for Everton and West Ham fans too. There also needs to be a recognition that we are not little Leicester anymore and the social media stats back this although we are some distance behind Spurs.

It is no longer classed as a sport. Infact this new coefficient they are proposing backs this. The sporting element (competition) is less important than the PL brand and the "big 6" brand for both the clubs and the TV companies. It makes me a little sad that this is the way football has gone. In the short term it has given me the chance to see my team win the biggest domestic league in the world as we have more TV money than most clubs in the world. Long term I see us as one of a number of clubs who become also rans when the closed shop of elite competition becomes a reality in football. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top 6 is more important that Rich 6 although the more you're in the Top 4 the richer you get that's how some of them have got richer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxed Posted 17 February 2021 Share Posted 17 February 2021 The top table? I don’t want a seat. We’re foxes. We should be nicking the food and causing havoc. I wanna hammer home, again and again, the big six aren’t the best six. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4everfox Posted 17 February 2021 Share Posted 17 February 2021 15 hours ago, urban.spaceman said: Spurs fans At this point I would say how are we not? We've not dropped lower than 5th in going on two years now. And in that time, Tottenham and Arsenal have been consistently below us. They're just salty because we've taken their place when they have never really done anything to deserve it anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are, unless I'm missing something, pretty clearly aiming to join the big 6 and make it a 7. We're not alone in that objective - see Everton, Wolves and West Ham - but consistently being part of the top 6 makes becoming part of a big 7 more achievable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
