Yes we would absolutely struggle to get back up but we've outstayed our spell in the Championship.

Different teams.
The dismantling of the last remnants of the expensive failures in our squads.
Maybe a new owner.
Probably a new manager.
Being a bigger fish in a smaller pond without being the big club everyone wants to beat.
Outside chance of a local game for me and if not probably a local derby with Oxford.
Better prospect of winning games and finishing mid-table or above.
More game time from the Academy lads at an easier level for them to transition into the first team.

FFP issues largely behind us, Championship infrastructure with PL potential, one of the best Academies in the country at relative low point for the last 20 odd years, near London.

How often do clubs go out of business and not find owners? Very very rarely.

Yeah so May as well just embrace div1 as agree we may be there for whole. It isn’t the end of the worldOrion1871 wrote:Barely any players left due to contracts running out. Anyone we do have whomis worth anything will have to be sold.
The Academy is not producing anywhere near the same quality of player it has produced in previous years, and a lot of them will likely be out of contract themselves in the Summer anyway.
We have a Chief Scout, but no scouts in his department. To build that up you need to invest, and League 1 represents a significant drop in revenue which will make it harder for us to do that.
It's a long road back folks.
I'd rather lose to good clubs than those tinpot clubsblythspartan wrote:Losing is shit whoever you play.Royal_jimmy wrote:Losing to shit like Oxford, Fleetwood, Burton and Morecambe
