jamsandwich Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 This might be a case of living in the bubble or echo chamber - but for some reason it feels like every match commentary, every article, every sound bite contains a reference the our great club - and it is leading me to believe that WE are the worlds most important football club. Eg. This article about Ranieri has no need to mention us - yet there we are https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2017/feb/25/claudio-ranieris-leicester-exit-a-tale-of-deceit-and-discourtesy?utm_source=esp&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=GU+Today+main+NEW+H+categories&utm_term=215024&subid=17576164&CMP=EMCNEWEML6619I2 and if I listen to most UK televised games there is some reference to our club in every commentary.

The Night-Owl Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) Leeds will say they are even though they've won less League titles than us but seriously the truely massive top Premier League clubs and the European club giants make the likes of us and Leeds seem tin pot in reality to be honest, in terms of honours and money we are tin pot but we've got a long history to be proud of that other teams can't replicate or even buy as we're one of the oldest clubs in world football formed from a far older cricket club our club is important in the sense of the formation of the game and historically we're a big club but in terms of success we aren't big to be honest. We're important to us, the founding of the game and historically. Edited February 26, 2017 by Milan Missing Marble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Farrell Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 100% We don't build on or shout about our brand enough. That short film with the Owl on should be on the tv after Emmerdale for starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor John Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Not THE most important, but important for sure. In the 1930s we were the best in the land, and in the early 1960s/1990s we were Certainly one of the top English clubs. Abroad, I find that a lot of people have at least heard of Sheffield Wednesday, and the quirkiness of the name gets us a mention in all manner of books, including Bill Bryson's Notes from a Small Island. To keep being important, we need a longish spell in the premiership - hence the monumental significance of this season's remaining games! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 The article states that the nearest Leicester have ever been to winning the league is when they finished runner up to Wednesday I think that is relevant And yes, we are the most important team in the world Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

In a thread about Sheffield Wednesday being the most important club in the world, the first thing that springs into your mind is Leeds United.
