Clubs that have been relegated

[Clampy]

I wouldn't be surprised if quite a few QRP players have release clauses in the contracts

Yeah there's bound to be. Samba for one and Remy i would have thought.

Selling Samba would cost QPR a fortune. 3 and a half years left on a £100,000 contract that they’d need to pay off, on top of a huge fall in income, a need to trim the squad and small attendances that will get smaller still.

They’ve played kamikaze economics with their wage bill and will be in an even bigger financial mess next season than they are in now. 

As a point, its interesting to note that the level of negativity on here is such that should the Villa go down (we won’t) then we’re doomed, but should a complete basket case of a club like QPR go down (they will) then they will walk the Championship.

Probably due to the fact that qpr owners are mega rich and prepared to spend big whereas our owner seems to have lost the desire.

Maybe they can afford to lose the money whereas it appears the lerner pursestrings are somewhat tighter.

Yes, things at QPR are so much better than Villa. Where everything is shit, shitter than shit and its never been quite so shit.

McGrath give me fucking strength.

Another thing to consider is, would Redknapp want to manage in the Championship? I doubt it somehow, he's ego's too big.

Everything at villa is not shit, we are in a relegation fight and we can get out of it - we are not down yet although some seem to be giving up the fight - the next 3 games will be crucial - we can do it , i think we have a 50/50 chance .

I think hes already said he would stay , his ego may be big but his wallet is bigger - harry would be on mega money to get them up and have a better squad than most - he will stay on .

I think if we go down we'll struggle massively to come straight back up. That is purely down to the ownership not understanding what it takes to have a successful team at any level. If we had an owner with any footballing sense a club the size of Villa would dominate the Championship and be straight back into midtable Premier League in no time.

Harry says a lot of things, not all of them true.

Oh and QPR are in much bigger trouble than Villa regardless of what happens this season.

Surely you not referring to uncle arry as dishonest ?  He is the very epitome of a fine upstanding cockney 

[Risso]

Benteke and Weimann would definitely be off if we go down, and without those two we'd be lucky not to face another relegation battle into League 1.  Other than maybe Guzan they're the only dependable Premier League quality players we have, and most of the rest aren't even good Championship level.

I think Weimann would stay.

I cannot see us coming straight back up if we go down.

[peter w]

Don't agree Risso. I think Weimann would stay. I don't think his career has progressed sufficiently for him to walk into another Prem team. He's only juststarting out on an international career so i do not think he's at the stage where walking out is an option. i think we'll start with Weimann and Gabby up top and buy players to feed them.

As for paulie leeds did sttract players but because of their debt they had to sell quickly and that destabilised their team. We are not in the same position/. Also, if a player had a level playing field choice between Villa and Leeds it is likely that they would choose us.

[DeKuip]

So not only have we written off the final quarter of this season we're already doomed for evermore!

Besides, Why list just the relegated sides from just the last six seasons? The season before that Sunderland and Blues came straight back and Albion came close but lost in the play-off final!
