Hughesy Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Will there ever have been three 'bigger' clubs, either by attendances or trophies, to have been relegated in one season if us, Sunderland and Villa go down? Quick count on wikipedia says 21 trophies for Villa, 11 trophies for us and 8 for Sunderland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 All far bigger than the probable champions. What a ridiculous season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Will there ever have been three 'bigger' clubs, either by attendances or trophies, to have been relegated in one season if us, Sunderland and Villa go down? Quick count on wikipedia says 21 trophies for Villa, 11 trophies for us and 8 for Sunderland. Don't even think there would have been two as big as Villa and one of us/Mackems. In the event Norwich do survive then certainly not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Will there ever have been three 'bigger' clubs, either by attendances or trophies, to have been relegated in one season if us, Sunderland and Villa go down? Quick count on wikipedia says 21 trophies for Villa, 11 trophies for us and 8 for Sunderland. Don't even think there would have been two as big as Villa and one of us/Mackems. In the event Norwich do survive then certainly not. Which also means coming back up at the first time of asking is likely to be a lot harder than it proved to be last time.

Mattoon Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I'm at a 7 and rising, the home games are the absolute must for us, we've proven time and again we can't do shit away from home and I wouldn't put any hope in any of those. Slip up in any of our home games against bottom half teams and we're toast. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoreboard82 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 10. Where we are getting the points from I've no idea. Both Norwich and Sunderland look miles better than us. McClaren and this couching set up have been a disaster. I know we've not the greatest players but never in this works should we be as bad and down were we are with these players. As for McClarens comments - he is now just saying anything at random, looks like he is beat not trying to detract from our desperate situation but Norwich look miles better than us? 1 point from their last possible 21 having conceded stacks of goals. We're useless away from home but if we can't beat Norwich and villa away we deserve to go down. They really should be 2 of the 4/5 wins needed but not sure we'll beat those 2 even.

merlin Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 All far bigger than the probable champions.

geordiedean Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 My American fiancé made a good point when we were talking about this. She said she's watched games of ours and looked at our teams body language in the tunnel and taking the field and she says the players just have the defeatist attitude before they have even taken the field. The opposing team sense this and just take us to the cleaners She compared this to consistent losing teams in the major sorts in the US and said its ingrained into these organisations from top down over and that's why these teams never do anything in the NFL,NBA,NHL MLB etc She also said that weak willed coaches in the US have major issues trying to motivate players that have been superstars in the collegiate system yet they hit the big time earning millions of dollars they then lose the desire for the sport as it becomes more about the money She's only been watching us for 18 months yet already she knows and can see why we are shit and constantly lose Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andybiotics Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 The whole club has a losing mentality, even our kids are getting beat every week. Nailed on 10 for me, but think relegation would be a relief at this point! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiedean Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I'm not actually bothered about being relegated to be honest. 15 years ago I'd have been gutted but as I get older and older I give less of a fuck about NUFC I'm emigrating to the states in 3 months and not being able to see us get tanked every week on nbcsn will be bliss Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
