Lol right? Every metric you can imagine shows we're in the absolute shite. Yet, derangers dismiss it, and get annoyed about relegation talk because we're a big club.
A lot of people can't be objective about their football teams.

Yes, a trophy is a trophy. I'd even celebrate if we got up through the Playoffs. It's still a Final at Wembley and you have to go through a 46 game league season, an agonising two-legged Semi-Final and a Final to secure the trophy and win promotion.
And, quite frankly, if the boys managed to achieve all that from the wreckage of this season, I would be nothing but incredibly proud of them.
Ah, Fixxy. Found you at last, blud."See..... We're good enough to have avoided a relegation all along.... Now give me a payrise"
What a shitshow indictment of the lack of accountability in modern football.
I was wondering what your thoughts were on the proposed new tifo for the next home game
You likey? .
We won't go down.
Dude, we have pussyhole players that can’t play with a sore throat ffs. These cunts would get eaten alive in the championship.
None of these mercenary cunts are staying with us when we drop.
Our first season will be trying not to get relegated again while we figure out the league.
Burnley will go straight back up as champions. It will take us two seasons to get a decent team so we might be back before 2030. Then we have e to spend huge money to try and stay up.
We are so fucked
Easy to bet on anything when you are behind a screen.
I'm still still waiting for manmountainbutters to show me his donation to Doctors without bordersEasy to bet on anything when you are behind a screen.
Fxxk this thread!
Do we? A mystery injury.... A loss of form.... A constant unsettling attitude and performance
We have zero leverage. No team does
It is one thing to be concerned that we could be relegated but another to assume it will happen and discuss next season’s team. The position we are in is discussed in numerous threads and this one is premature.
Reality hurts like a bitch
But it is not reality it is a possibility.
THe fact that it's a very real possibility makes preparing for such an event a reality.
You do not get it do you. The very wording of this thread assumes it will happen. I just hope the players do not have this mentality or we are lost.
I agree with you . But it’s not an absolute impossibility .
No, again. If it's a possibility, planning for said possibility is something that indeed happens. Even the club will be doing that right now.
Plan for both eventualites, especially when it's going to be as close as this.
They will be planning commercial impact eg season ticket impact and sponsorship, not first team
Utter bastards
No player or agent is signing that contract unfortunately plus it wouldn’t look very good trying to sell the idea of the club to a player , the ambition, the goal etc and then “ oh by the way … if we do get relegated…”

A mix of players who will stay, players relegated with Wolves, young players and some experienced Championship battlers. This is probably best we can do. Bannan will captain the team. Some good options from the bench. Wilson, Scarlett, Lankshear, Dorrington...
If anyone thinks it will be better than this, you're in for a shock next season if we get relegated. I honestly think this will be the best we can do based on the huge drop in revenue, the need to clear 300m of transfer fees owed and the need to meet EFL PSR not just next season but future seasons. The EFL doesn't accept any team thinking they are going to be promoted to the PL. You have to prove you can survive in the Championship for a sustained period.

I'd like to think that we would be able to stretch to another goalkeeper. Kinsky won't be good enough and there is no way that we can trust either him or Austin with a 46 game league season.
Brian Clough always used to say that a good goalkeeper was worth 30 points a season and I firmly believe that Leicester's relegation in 22/23 was down to their failure to replace Kaspar Schmeichel. Two back-up keepers never works.
