None of those clubs have Europe, the only factor West Ham have got is that its in London and pays a hefty wedge in comparison. In Terms of football its more entrenched with the rest than on the coat tails of those in front.
For me there's a question mark over Everton without Lukaku so I'll include them for now, but I see it as the top 6 and then any of: Everton, Us, Stoke, Leicester, Palace, Newcastle, and then potentially the likes of Burnley & Bournemouth being in there too. Then after that you have the 6 who are likely to be in a relegation scrap.
I'd say we are about 10th biggest club behind the big six, Everton, Leicester and Newcastle
West Ham are not breaking the top 6 any time soon. Certainly Arnie / Hernandez and whoever else will not be around to see us in the top 6 if it does happen.
So I cant see how Stoke to West Ham is a Step up. Its a sideways move.
57K vs 27K at the moment and we're increasing.
Oatcake things are probably available in London along with every other kind of exotica not available in Stoke.
All we need to do is win one of the domestic cups and we are in Europe. ;pray
Here's a link, not to The Sun but to a Stoke paper that reports more fully than C+H what Daniel Arnautovic said. If anyone is interested. (His comments follow the criticism by the Stoke Chairman on Talksport yesterday. (I think someone posted the link to that earlier.)
