Relegation 2022/23

[windymiller]

I've been arguing against Kenwright and that board for decades mate...and Moshiri since he proved what a humungous tit he is.

The tactics of those looking to agitate to get Kenwright and his board out was appalling. It placed a huge weight on the backs of the manager and players knowing that the fanbase was looking elsewhere. It;s no use saying that wasn't happening because it was. It was a factor in our season from the new year onward.

Just because you keep saying it doesn't make it true. We were a poor side before the world cup, we were a poor side last season, with each transfer window our squad got weaker, no amount of good will allows a team to defy gravity forever. If you keep making a poor side worse, and keep recruiting mediocre, or worse, managers to marshall those ever poorer squads the inevitable will happen. That is what is happening. Be a stooge for the board if you want, they don't care about you, this line they trot out that you are parroting is just smoke and mirrors, the fans will still be here when they are gone. I thought you were less gullible and certainly more cynical about the ownerships intentions than buying into their horseshit.

There’s a result in it, we’ve a chance.

We’re in for the biggest manure show in our history if we go down, I’ve had a look at - no positives to it - Armageddon.

Armageddon.

Brentford and Bournemouth wins needed to start off some belief again. We can't be having either Forest or Leeds pull away.

So in summary:
- Points deduction in the Championship for financial losses
- Possible forfeiture of parachute payments if found guilty of rule breaches
- No relegation clauses in most players' contracts
- Gomes and Mina still stealing a living
- Pickford, DCL, Onana and Coady off
- A stadium to complete/fund/sustain

I have never in my life been more convinced that there won't even be a club to boo in 3 years.

One will go for a minimal fee and wage cut, the other is out of contract

Armageddon.

One positive. No VAR

This was never going to be a winnable game in a million years. Newcastle are a top 4 side. Having said that, our players did seem galvanised in the first half an hour and we actually held our own until we went behind.

Let's beat Leicester and see what the table looks like then.

I'll be in the East Midlands cheering on the lads on Monday night.

Another 2 big money signings we got nothing out of. I love yerry as a guy but another disastrous signing in terms of playing time

 

[Bluelighter]

I like James
I like that song

That song doesn't not come anywhere near to how I currently feel right now

Thats not a dig at you for posting it btw

No worries, if we stay up I'll post Sit Down

 

[Daytripper]

Too bloody late. Where was these journalists two years ago questioning this quote? No where!!

Armageddon.

That goes without saying.

It simply can't be allowed to happen.

If we are relegated this season then in a few years we'll be playing in the conference north.

 

[ZZtopZZ]

We'll stay up. Youse are all mad.

 

[Swagger]

Leicester are vulnerable from set pieces but they create chances and have Vardy, Maddison and Barnes. Something has to give...

If we beat Leicester we still go down. They can score goals we cannot. They've scored 4 goals in a game on 4 occasions this season, whereas we've managed to score more than 1 goal in a game the same amount of times

What have you looked at mate?

Financials mostly. We’re a club that looses 100 mill + every season in the PL, if we go down we loose an additional 100 - 110 mill. Thats a 200 mill hole to break even. Our wage bill is just below 90% of our PL turnover, in the Chamionship, it’s about 200% - I know lads will think - just sell the high earners - weve struggled to that for years we’re talking Gomes, Gbamin and Dele’s - close to 250 - 300k a week right there.

We’re in big trouble, a quick reset, doesn’t exist. Selling players will go into a 200 mill black hole of losses and lost income, before you think of replacing players. Or securing funding for BMD.

Us going down isn’t like other clubs going down and coming back up, we’re in bad shape going down financially - if we do - concerninly so.

I do fear a Leeds/city/Sunderland double relegation. Having said that we aren't down yet mate

Yeah, had to give my head a shake and not think that hypothetically far ahead - curiosity….cat.
