Small Clubs - Villages & Towns vs Goliath - List

[14Hoofball]

(This topic is reposted here, from my old user on the forum, and will be updated here instead).

Updated for irl seasons - 2023 & 2023-24 - therefore some clubs might not be playable in FM right now, or only available in custom databases:

 

Which clubs do you think are the smallest clubs in FM? When you take things like population, reputation, facilities, origins, etc. into consideration.

 

I will give a list of my own and others suggestions, on which clubs could make a good small-club save:

Suggestions are warmly welcomed anytime.
