AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Even if he stays, the worse we do the more he’s failing. So I’m up for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 The ideal though is that we get taken over in this sort of position than stooping to where Sunderland are for instance. Fuck waiting 3-5 years to come back. A takeover now and you’re a few signings and managerial change from being top 8-10 within a year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 For those of us who welcome relegation, it seems there is too much other shit to flush the Ashley turd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 The ideal though is that we get taken over in this sort of position than stopping to where Sunderland are for instance. Fuck waiting 3-5 years to come back. A takeover now and you’re a few signings and managerial change from being top 8-10 within a year. Exactly this, in a nutshell.

Ketsbaia Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Relegation makes us less attractive to a buyer and I'm not even sure it'd piss Ashley off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club needs to be destroyed before it can be rebuilt. L1, L2 don't give a shit. It needs to be as toxic as possible before he lets us go Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Rinse & repeat. He’d get £100m for Dubravka, Schar, Almiron, St Maximin, Joelinton...buy a £15-20m striker who’d get 20 plus down there, sign a few £8-12m wingers and we’d be favourites again.

James Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Should we take 4 points from next two games we won’t go down. Would be the first time in a few years were we make an attractive proposition to any buyer at early-mid season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 If Saint-Maximin and Almiron ever start finding the net and they sign a striker for some desperately needed goals in Jan they’ll probably stay up. But really what’s the point? I guess the hope that someone buys us but that’s not happening is it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the issue. This is sadly the truth, he’s not going anywhere unless it goes completely belly up or someone offers him ludicrous money that blows everything out of the water.

Tribesman Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Norwich look the biggest certainties to be relegated. They can't defend and the goals from Pukki have dried up. I think Newcastle are then the most likely. Forwards can't score and Bruce is just not convincing at all even when the team plays well. Then I reckon will come down to Watford, Southampton, Villa and maybe another team which will plummet in the 2nd half of the season. Its not the big relegation scrap like the last few seasons only a handful of teams I can realistically getting relegated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I think we'll probably stay up; Rafa used his shoestring budget extremely well when it came to the defence and we still look relatively in control there. Providing the butthurt little wet lettuce currently in the dugout doesn't tamper too much - or doesn't piss everybody off with his fortnightly home-truth sessions - we'll probably avoid defeat enough times to ensure survival. Then onto another season of dreary, forced underachievement and finger-crossing, watching from the sidelines as the latest batch of small-to-medium-sized clubs make legitimate attempts on the top 6 whilst enjoying European excursions. NUFC - living the dream. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I reckon Charnley will give him some cash in Jan, probably due to one of Mike's oh so generous loans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samptime29 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Next 7 games: Bournemouth (H) City (H), Villa (A), Sheff Utd (A), Southampton (H), Burnley (A), Palace (H). Interesting run of games. 2-3 wins on the bounce always huge in this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Last season I thought if we went down we’d struggle to come back next time. Looking at that Preston side who are now top of the league, I’m not sure. He’d throw just enough of the money we get from sales to make sure we come back again.

He's already got Dwight Gayle, would keep the likes of Hayden, Yedlin, probably even Lascelles, Clark, Dummett, Longstaff. He's not going to sell if we go down.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 He'll sell when he wants and when if he finds a buyer he can take the piss out of. We all know that. My point about going down is that at least it shows his way of running the club is failing, and it costs him exposure for Sports Direct. The more time we spend in the PL, the more his approach is proved right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 We'll stay up, just about and Ashley will be wanking himself dry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 No chance Lascelles would stay if we went down. I expect he'll be wanting a move away at the end of the season whether we stay up or not. He seems an ambitious man and given that he's been with us a fair while, he surely must be thinking he's ready to move on. He's a very dependable premier league CB now, and could certainly be playing regularly for a team with a modicum of ambition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
