We deserve to go down, Top has been a disgrace this season, only sacking the manager at virtually the last possible moment with which we could stay up. I hope we stay up but if we don’t the club deserve it for sticking by that fool for 12 months longer than necessary (fans included) At the end of a 38 game season, the three teams who are in the relegation zone deserve to go down. Those who finished above don’t deserve to go down. It’s that simple. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But honest soon as them clubs start to fail, they quickly lose interest. There's a girl in my work place, came in covered in Liverpool gear, lunch box, coat, water bottle.. etc. This last few months that's all disappeared suddenly she claims to support Cov and not bothered about Liverpool.

Those who finished above don’t deserve to go down. It’s that simple. I don’t agree. You can be absolutely awful and 3 teams just happen to be even worse. The league isn’t the same quality every year. You can stay up on a lucky refereeing decision that earns 2 points. We deserve to go down for our incompetence and lack of basic self-preservation. The only thing that saves us is other teams being just as or more pathetic. If we’re lucky. Of course we could win 4 games and deserve to stay up, but there aren’t many signs to suggest we’ll win more than 1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all play everyone home and away and at the end of the day, if you’re one of the three worst teams you go down, if not you don’t.

Other teams have given it a go, Top stuck with that clown until the last possible second, so foolish. And that’s not always the case, ghost goal, poor decision making from refs, small margins can mean a small swing in one game means you stay up or go down. It’s easy to say the bottom 3 deserve to go down but Sheff Utd went down and WHU stayed up because of ineligible players playing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john ridley Posted 27 April 2023 Share Posted 27 April 2023 If we go down ,which is likely,think we should stick with them instead of someone coming here for the money and unproven. A big shake up will happen in the summer and they have the advantage of knowing the ones that'll be left.Also because they wanted to come here knowing the predicament we're in ,and didnt want 3yr deals etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those who finished above don’t deserve to go down. It’s that simple. This is a fact based on league regulations. You also need to take into account other factors including luck. If you think Forest deserves to stay up I rest my case. Imo they should have been even below Southampton. I agree football is not fair but this is why we should never use the word "deserve". Do we deserve going down? I doubt it. We might go down but this team is better than Forest's at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's after Forest's win last night. What makes you think otherwise? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That experience would be invaluable to what would likely be a young squad in the event of a rebuild in the Championship. If we stay up, I wouldn't be against them staying, but I'd like Potter if he's interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzFOX Posted 27 April 2023 Share Posted 27 April 2023 THIS predicament is what we all feared and wanted to avoid. Relegation scraps are unpredictable, fraught with all kinds of jeopardy, pit falls, weird results etc very little is within your control other than scoring goals and winning out games. WE had plenty of time to avoid this and plenty of opportunities. I don’t even want to think about the dreaded stat of how many games we’ve lost from winning positions or lost in extra time when leading or silly goals conceded to gift the opposition points. Rogers or no Rogers we still should not be where we are. Now it’s in the hands of the football gods. Let’s hope the boys can do the job in these next few games and what will be will be 🙏🏽 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 27 April 2023 Share Posted 27 April 2023 Chelsea have managed roughly the same amount of points we have since Tuchel left. That is remarkable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only concern i have, is that a club will take a punt on terry as manager and smith without terry isn’t half as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we hadn’t gifted them three points last month they would be in the relegation conversation which would be so funny - irrespective that 36 points will be enough, the media would be milking it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have dreamt it, but hasn't Terry gone on record as saying he isn't interested in managing ? I stand to be corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
