Many were saying that Derby County were too big for League One over the past two seasons, but with the Rams in the Championship again, just how big a club are they?
One of the best ways to measure is by looking at the stadium. Pride Park was opened in 1997 and has a capacity of 33,600 which is bigger than even a number of Premier League clubs.
But how does it compare to their rivals in the Championship with the likes of Leeds United, Sheffield United, Sheffield Wednesday and more all boasting sizeable arenas.
Here are all 24 Championship stadiums for the upcoming season ranked on capacity from the smallest to the biggest.
How far up the list will Pride Park be?
