It’s a fair point though. Huddersfield have won the league three times in the period since Newcastle last won it.

I have no idea what you mean...If you're going to be a pedant at least spell the team name in question properly
If you go back far enough in football history you'll find a number of clubs that would put themselves in 'a tier above' other clubs, it's pointless. We've had 4 seasons in the last 40 odd years where we've looked genuine top half, top division candidates, personally I don't like looking at us as better and more deserving than anyone else. Tbf I probably shouldn't be posting on this thread as I don't really hate any other teams and don't give a flying fuck who goes down as long as its not us.They'd be wrong and deluded then.
Like I said, we can't be too snobby, and obviously spent most of the 80s/90s/2000s out of the top flight, but in terms of history and honours, you'd place us in at least a tier above those I mentioned, or the likes of Wigan or Swansea. I think even after decades of underachievement we're still something like the 13th most successful club in the country in terms of domestic trophies
There's a difference between a 'proportion' of small clubs in the top flight (of course you should be there on merit), and half the league, which we could feasibly have next season if Fulham, Bournemouth and someone like Luton or Huddersfield get up

When I said I don't hate any other teams, I'd forgot about Leeds, yep hate them, they can go to hell, or the national league as some call itEach to their own.
Simply, I'd rather see Leeds, Sheff Wed, Sunderland, Forest and Blackburn in the top flight than Reading, Hull, Bournemouth, Brentford and Wigan
Prior to this weird run against Burnley WE were their bogey team! It's odd how it has twisted around.I'd laugh my ass off if Everton go down. Our poor form against Burnley has to end at some point, surely?! So they can have another year. I think Leeds will be safe, as well Villa.
At their place we don't seem to win a lot. 1 in 11 or somethingPrior to this weird run against Burnley WE were their bogey team! It's odd how it has twisted around.
Yeah i meant going back historically. From 1973 to 2009/10 season it wasAt their place we don't seem to win a lot. 1 in 11 or something
Last season Chris Woodinho took us a part in that brilliant live on national TV 4-0 humping at home

They are lower in the league than when he took over and one of his wins was a freak at our placeHe's got a decent record since he took the reins at Leeds hasn't he?
