Relegation

[Goat]

It will crush me if it happens, but it would be the most deserved relegation in a while. Only got ourselves to blame.

We all said how bored we were finishing 7th.

 

[The Trinity.]

Lampard has to take his share, but equal? No chance.

A 4-0 defeat in the cup. A 5-0 defeat to spurs. That second half debacle against Burnley. And even last night. Which we all know was a lucky draw. I could go on. Lampard has not been great. But let’s see.
If we do stay up , or even if we go down ,then surely Lampard will not be approaching next season with most of this useless bunch. I’m not expecting much transfer activity. But I am expecting about 4 or 5 youngsters to properly feature. They couldn’t be any worse.
Patterson….Myko….Branthwaite….Price….onyango….Dobbin….Simms. Along with Kenny and Gordon and Godfrey. And let’s not forget Tom Davies.
We will tear up the championship with those guys.
And we all know the useless bunch that we don’t even need to see slowing everything up in the championship. We all know them…
Rant over. Up the Toffees.

Got a feeling that GD column is going to be all important.

Better start hitting salad up in an offer of fellatio he might only stick two passed us and forget about assisting the boys.

At least we will be able to play in the Johnstone paint trophy. Always been a dream of mine to see my team walk out at Wembley against Colchester United or AFC Wimbledon

Only if we go into League 1 do we get to play in that. Championship is absolute no man’s land.

Problem is that our players don’t have relegation clauses in to protect the club, instead they have champions league bonuses built in to look after themselves.

Sums the ethos up in a nutshell

The players signed have been sold on the UCL dream so I doubt anyone of the Brain Trust running this club would have ever thought to consider such a clause (who knows whether or not the players would have agreed to it. Probably would have. We're "too good to go down" according to them).

When we go into League 1 do we get to play in that. Championship is absolute no man’s land.

Probably gonna start next season with a 540 points reduction.

 

[Toffeepot]

If I was a neutral id want us to go down. We are a prime example of everything wrong with top level football.

If we get fines or points deductions then can we really argue. We are just a badly run, and pretty unlikeable club right now.

Yea we come across as arrogant, living off long past glories, thinking we're better than all the other non CL EL teams
To a Neutral it's plucky Burnley v Hard working exciting to watch Leeds v Arrogant Everton
They'd love us to go down, would be hilarious to em

 

[roy vernon]

Southampton will win 3-1, Gordon will get sent off on Sunday, and we won’t spend one day in the bottom three this season.

I'd take that mate.

What the feck are you rambling on about now? Good job I ve seen us win 4-0 at the tin mine with a virtual reserve side ?????

Yeah, I was at that one, 1964, I mentioned it in the match preview thread. 8 reserves out that day. We scored after 30 seconds and gav them a lesson.

Only if we go into League 1 do we get to play in that. Championship is absolute no man’s land.

Yes but that could happen quickly with a points deduction

You spoiled your rant!

 

[Lob]

It will all be over in 4 weeks time anyway however it turns out. Sick to death of hoping crap teams get beat to help save a bunch unworthy tossers.

A summer without must win, must not lose, kin lost again sounds like heaven to me.

This is going well…..

 

[Frenk]

Licking their lips at the chance to deduct points from us in the championship and claim their biggest scalp yet.

 

[peteblue]

You spoiled your rant!

He was so close as well…..

Pretty standard clause as far as I know. Would be typical of Theatrical Bill to wave that aside in a show of superior mediocrity
