Interpolic Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Being in the Premier League with this setup isn't any fun at all anyway, we'd lose nowt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I'd take relegation if it meant a different owner with a hint of footballing ambition. Utilitarianism imo. Worth it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Probably unpopular but I'd take a relegation and no promotion the next year to rid the club of Pardew and Ashley. We've got no future with them so what's to lose? I'd rather us be a Championship club I love than a PL club I hate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I thought I was crazy when I asked myself this question, I'm glad I'm not the only one who'd have rid of the cunt at such a cost Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

An NUFC in any division trying their collective best will always trump an NUFC actively attempting to tread water in the top flight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHoob Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Think Ashley would sell up if we went down? I'd have thought he'd not be able to get anywhere near the price he was asking for but I suppose he could always decide to cut his losses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 championship was the last season I truly enjoyed in all honesty. Even the 5th had the shitty hallmarks if this prat all over it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I loved the season that we came up until we brought in Pardew and sold Carroll. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Snrub Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Eh? Finishing 5th was the best season we've had in a decade despite that cunt on the sideline. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I'd snap your hand off for relegation if it meant the end of Ashley and getting a board that tries to punch our weight. If you offered me starting again from the conference I'd have to think about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Probably unpopular but I'd take a relegation and no promotion the next year to rid the club of Pardew and Ashley.

An NUFC in any division trying their collective best will always trump an NUFC actively attempting to tread water in the top flight. I'd sooner just take a year or two off from thinking about Newcastle, follow Gateshead for a couple of years ago, and go back once at the very least, Pardew has gone. That route is more likely to lead to relative success than dropping down and staying down a season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I'd not take relegation, like. Then again, I think Ashley would sack the shithead if we were in deep trouble. He chose to sign those 5 last January instead of sacking, but Ashley won't like having to bail him out again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Michael Martin backpedaling on Pardew off the back of a decent first half in a game we lost. Get used to that. I'd wager good money that they'll end up back in bed with NCJ over the summer too. The knobheads in our support will read a few positive headlines, see a few signings and be singing the wankers name after a few games. Depressing.

Disco Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 championship was the last season I truly enjoyed in all honesty. Even the 5th had the shitty hallmarks if this prat all over it. That'll be because we won every week. The Championship is utterly toss despite all the bluster of pretending it's exciting by those who don't watch it that surrounds it. Saying that, it may be a necessary evil in our case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I know and makes me seem like I want nowt but wins but their was a drive and an aim and a unity amongst the support that has been nigh on completely eroded/quashed. The lower league is shit but Nufc is becoming part of modern franchise type football and embracing it. It stinks. I'd sooner that feeling of being there come back.
