If we go down we could keep going, I doubt that RL has any ambition to own a team out of the top flight and there is absloutely no certainty that we would come back up. So he would probably cut his losses and go.
It would be an absoloute disaster.

I must admit Ive been looking who we would be playing if we go down. Years ago I got up to 79 grounds visited then the did away with re-election for the 4th division and then loads of clubs started moving. I could start making an effort again to make it into the `92` club. Swansea, Cardiff, Coventry, Leicester, Millwall  >:(, Milton Keynes Dons :o

Saying that, I think we'd lose Clark to Man Utd if we went down.

I'm sure Gabby would have some interest too, someone like Stoke or Wigan.

Does anyone think that GH would be the manager if we went down? or would Randy have to sack him?

Stupid question..

How many of our players would have clauses in their contracts with regards to wages and the Championship?

I actually think if we do go down, for the first season at least, all we'd lose (that we wanted to hold onto) would be Ashley Young.

Well then he'd have to take some flak for appointing the manager that took us down. We shouldn't be anywhere near the relegation zone with that squad.

I think Gabby might go for 10 million somewhere which would probably be good business, leaving the Fonz and Heskey to spearhead the attack with whoever else we got in.


Clark would give us a season I reckon unless the offer was silly from United - 15-20 million and he will go.

How would relegation affect our pre-season? Would hong kong still be on ?
