League Cup 4th Round - Newcastle Utd v AFC Bournemouth (20/12/22 @ 7.45pm)


Recommended Posts

Full strength. Remember people, this is where we’re coming from:

 

CF: “Do the club not think it is worth a cup run next season?”
“The board outlined research into Premier League clubs in relation to domestic cup competitions in the last five years, with Swansea City the only club outside the traditional top six to win a domestic cup and not be relegated in the same season (Birmingham and Wigan Athletic were both relegated). Independent research into the cost of relegation over the past ten years showed there is a 50% chance of not gaining promotion back to the top flight and a 30% chance of being relegated to League One or further. In addition, if clubs do return to the Premier League, it takes four years on average.”
GG: “If the club finished higher in the Premier League, would they aim for a cup?”
“At this moment in time, the club’s priority is the Premier League.”

Jesus Christ, I kind of forgot about that. Also a part of me accepted that as a rational answer at the time.
