Ipswich Town v Norwich City: which is the bigger club?

[Jamma123]

OK, I'm not actually expecting there to be much scope for debate on this topic but I thought this was quite an interesting article from the EADT:

For those who haven't got the time, it is summarised in the 'Ipswich Town and Norwich City facts' section at the bottom!

Was unable to access the link, but in short, it's an asinine subject of debate, but one in which you can recall has come to the fore on these pages more than once in past discussion.

One last time, if this were a boxing match the referee would throw in the towel before the competition was even underway.

We got everything bigger over them. Bigger past managerial names, bigger stadia, bigger honors list, bigger past recognized players, bigger chairmen, even the club badge is far superior to the crap that they have often assembled.

You want a brief history of Norwich greatness, then you'd be hard pressed to get beyond a League Cup win that no-one can remember, an FA cup semi-final here and there and finishing third or fourth in the inaugural year of the EPL.

Of course that win in Munich would have to be included, (and as time has gone on) you'd honesty think they'd won the f**king thing and the trophy went to Carrow Road - and not Milan - by end of season.

Bottom line - If (or when) any Norwich fan argues that they're a bigger club side than ourselves, then they're either on some substance abuse, totally deranged, or living in some alternate reality.

There's a fine line between defense and embarrassment

Two clubs of similar stature, one that has recently been more successful, the other has more prestige.

So, ipso facto.

Ipswich are better, norwich are w*nk.

Amen to that, but let the bloody inbreds believe their own hype and bullshit.

Whatever the answer is, it must be a total nightmare for the Norfolk ones knowing they can't put 3 STARS above their badge. Bigger club, my fkn arse. Fk off.

I wonder if having your club owner intoxicated on the field and rambling incoherent garbage constitutes an award or accomplishment.
