Relegation 2022/23

[Roachey11]

I get there is 15 points to play for and admire continued optimism, but we've barely managed a shot in the last 3 games; all of which we needed to win when the respective kick offs of those games came round. The crowd can't do any more. We stayed positive last night even at 2 down, but this team is lacking in everything. Of course we can still stay up, but would now be very surprised if we do.

I do too, but no club has a divine right to success. Plenty of big clubs with great fanbases have been relegated. West Ham, Villa, Leeds, Newcastle, Wednesday, Sunderland, Ipswich to name a few.

Just have to hope that we can get change at the top that filters down into better decision making on the football side of the club. Again though, there are no guarantees.

My brother who is 30 is a big Ipswich fan, who goes to a fair few games, and said this season is by far the best season he has had supporting them. That includes when they were in Europe

You realise how inconsequential the whole thing is when you talk to someone who doesn't like football at all, life goes on

1 win in 10,10 pts from our away games and people thinking we gonna get something at Leicester and wolves.

Spare a thought for our dynamic owner this morning. His total owned assets fell probably tens of millions last night. It’s a lot regardless of your wealth. Will drop by more tens of millions next Monday I suspect. Bless him. Stupid slap head.

It’s comparing chalk and cheese when you talk about Ipswich and everton though…I feel the very fabric of this club is identifiable with being in the top league and our fanbase is enormous.

Saying that - the premier league is a miserable place to be in when you are hampered by lack of money and it feels we have always been one season away from potential chaos for a while.

If you could tell me, we will get in a new progressive manager, we will have a long term identity and have a squad full of hungry young players with a bit of quality, we will gut these dreadful cowards from the club (on and off pitch) then I’d swallow my pride and take relegation on the chin. No one has a divine right to stay in any league and we certainly deserve to go down.

The problem lies in the prospect of everton being in such a dire financial situation that we go into administration/cease to exist as a functioning football club…all with a massive new stadium being built…and the likelihood is that the board don’t go and keep moving from one bad short term decision to another.

We are like a lower league team who play a prem team in the cup, it's all effort and huff and puff then their quality creates a goal and it's all down hill. Whoever scouted and bought these players should be ashamed.

 

[Blueclouds]

I think we are going down this season. The players are not good enough. We don't have any proper quality. Who sells rich and not replace him after last season. It's a joke. The club owners deserve this but the fans don't.

If we go down. We still have a club we love and still continue to support and we can use this to get rid of crap hopefully and rebuild. Might take a few seasons. At least we are all healthy to watch this unfold and and our families healthy to listen to us cry/rant.

 

[Tigger]

Its decision time, go down with dignity playing with the band or scramble for a dingy.

 

[Kirkles]

I'll assess my vote after Mondays match. Still in the minority 26.8 percent

And breathe.

Back to needing other results going our way. Leeds and Forest to lose against Bournemouth and Brentford.

Then down to us on Monday.

 

[BramleyMoore2024]

I am starting to give up hope. A friend of mine said to me last night, why worry and get stressed about the club, when the players won’t really be giving the fans any thought tomorrow. You know he’s exactly right. Role on end of season we finish where we finish. Enjoy the summer.

It isnt that we had no money, it’s that we spent far too much on absolute dross, and managers. We are the football equivalent of Viv Nicholson for those old enough to remember.

You have played well recently. You actually create chances and should have won at Leeds if Vardy could keep onside.

Maddison is a Champions League level player, Barnes too. Even Soyuncu looks like he might have started to play well again. You will be fine.
