[Debut 4]

Celtic

Heart of Midlothian Football Club

Aberdeen

Hibs

Motherwell

Kilmarnock  

--------------------

While Motherwell have won one less trophy than Killie and Dundee U (5-4), they have the best league record(all have one title but Motherwell have finished 2nd and 3rd more)

All of Killie, Motherwell and Utd probably have similar supports but historically i see Killie and Motherwell as bigger sides than United. Pretty close though.

You could be right but by biggest i thought it meant biggest support/potential support.

Trophies, support/potential support and success on the feild

If it's the city clubs you missed ICT, St Johnstone and Stirling Albion.

[hmfc22]

Hibs can't be higher than Aberdeen. Aberdeen have roughly the same fan base but have won much more cups.

[jambojardine7490]

stirling albion arent in the spl fud for brains

Support/potential support knocks Kilmarnock out the contest straight away.

Most teams in Scotland are wee. However hibs are no where near as big as us. So they are the wee team.

Aberdeen above us?

How come?

Aberdeen were a diddy club until the 80's where they punched above their weight for a few years. they have since reverted back to mid table normality.

[Bert Le Clos]

Kilmarnock

Average support of 5536 last season, feck knows if that includes their bumper crowds they achieve by selling out 3 of their stands to whichever one of the Olf Firm come a-calling on the last day of the season. One top tier league win since the start of the 20th Century. 3 Scottish Cup wins in their history, but only one in the last 80 years and that was a win over Falkirk FFS. Oh and the jammiest win in the Diddy Cup you're ever likely to see. Really, that Kilmarnock?

Celtic
Hearts
Aberdeen
Dundee Utd
Hibs
Motherwell

[Tommy Wiseau]

Killie?

I'll crack the jokes FFS     

The top 6 is Celtic, then Hearts, then Aberdeen, then Hibs, then Dundee, then United. Out of that only really Hibs and Aberdeen are even arguable in terms of position.

Dundee have double the fan base of Dundee Hibernian,but have been shan 30/40 years.

[everton_jambo]

In descending order:

Celtic

Hearts

Hibs

Aberdeen (this will annoy any of them reading this but they have a shocking home support and grossly exagerrated away support and have also been consistently p*sh in the last 15 odd years)

Dundee United

Motherwell

[Sydney]

Based on a study of the last 20 years (excluding Rangers and Celtic), looking at home crowds, League performance, Scottish Cup performance and League Cup Performance:

1 Hearts
2 Aberdeen
3 Hibs
4 Dundee Utd
5 Kilmarnock
6 Motherwell
