They're capacity may be smaller than ours but I bet it geberates more revenue than ours.
I bet it doesn't, given that it hasn't generated a penny of revenue as of yet. And ultimately, we probably need a new ground of our own to maximise revenue. If Forest get a new ground, will it generate more revenue that Brentford's new ground? Yep. Because more people have wanted to watch forest throughout football history than have wanted to watch Brentford.
Those league positions are 100% in the top half of the league and almost 50% in the Playoffs. How does that compare with us over for same period?
Comparing to us isn't relevant, because we are not a yardstick by which you judge whether a club is big or not.
Parachute payments don't make Huddersfield a big club. They were the worst side ever to get promoted.
No, they were not. But you see to agree that the parachute payment point is irrelevant to the size of a club.
The reality is that if Brentford manage their spell in the PL as well as they'be managed their stay in the Champ, regardless of whatever division they end up playing in, we will NEVER be able to compete with them on am equal footing.
Brentford have been in this league for 7 seasons, have had three chances at promotion and taken one of them.
We've been in this division 12 years, had four chances and blown all of them.
Brentford's model is brilliant until it isn't. Derby's model would have been lauded in some quarters if they had taken one of their chances.
Ultimately, more people want to watch forest than want to watch Brentford. More people want to watch forest than almost all of the Championship sides and some of the PL ones. Sustained success for Brentford might gradually change that fact, but they have to actually have that success.
More players can make the step up from L1 to the championship than from the Championship to the PL. Maintaining the data led approach is a much bigger challenge when the standard is vastly higher. Not saying. They can't do it, and being from London gives a massive advantage over being in Nottingham when it comes to attracting players.
But this isn't a discussion over whether they are bigger than forest, but over whether they are a big club. Even if you were using forest as a yardstick, they struggle; forest are not really a big club anymore, yet we have more regular fans than they do
