Jim,I've said this before and I will say it again.
I don't want them relegated.
I was there in 74 when Denis did the business. The next season, as their fans rampaged through the various towns, the lick spittle media covered every waking hour with rag shite. Sadly they got promoted at the first go and it was heralded as the second coming of christ.
Far better than relegation and an immediate return is 2-3 years of 17th. Sponsors dry up, fans get fed up and best of all, Neville shuts up.

Then they get relegated.
Skint, sitting there telling the drunks and spice heads that they are still a great club and that one day will return to their former glory.

I do. It'd be hilarious. "The World's Greatest Club"™ traipsing around various championship grounds, even it would be probably be for only one season. It'd be glorious payback for some of the shit I had to put up with in the 90s over. It was not a pleasant time to be a blue in a country obsessed with the rags, dips and Celtic.
 
Given we face 115 charges and many would like to see the process ending up with us relegated so its quite nice to see the rags doing what they can to get themselves relegated so we can continue to have Derby Days ...... Scruffy Jim is doing his best to ruin them

Manchester United likely to slash scouting network in next round of redundancies

The move could be part of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s next round of up to 200 redundancies, with United currently employing up to 80 scouts globally

These fuckers are becoming more and more irrelevant each passing season month game and it’s only the likes of Sky and ex rags players still pushing there agendas each week. They are the most hated club along with their fans, the massive debts are piling up the ground is falling down says something when little Everton have built a better ground. Players with no resale value and no top players willing to go there especially when Bournemouth Fulham Brentford Brighton forest and a few more teams with more potential than that shithole of a club. As the Fonz use to say happy days.

They will remain relevant to the media as long as they have a huge (possibly massive) worldwide audience for TV revenue and click-bait.
Consequently I expect to see a concerted effort by refs to gift them the Thursday League or the FA Cup. - Though I'm sure some fucking idiots on here would like them to win the FA Cup just so we can continue with the "oh what a night" song. That's the same mob who thought losing the final was funny as it kept Ten Bob at the swamp. They could be bottom three had he been binned last summer.

Thought there was an option for the glazers to buy back Ratcliffe shares!

Yes, the Glazers have the option to force Sir Jim Ratcliffe to sell his shares back to them under certain conditions. Specifically, after an 18-month period from when Ratcliffe's deal was completed, if the Glazers decide to sell the entire club, they can require Ratcliffe's investment vehicle, Trawlers Ltd, to sell all of its shares as part of that full sale. This is known as a "drag-along" right. However, this would only be enacted if Ratcliffe does not want to or cannot match the offer price from a new buyer.

If the Glazers buy out Ineos can they do it with borrowed money, and put debt on the club. Like they did the first time around?

Said the same thing. If they go down they'll fill every fucking column inch of newspaper sports pages. They'll be all over social media. The BBC will 100% shoehorn them into motd - don't kid yourself they won't.

I want them to remain in the PL and be mediocre for another 10 years+. Get beat by Fulham and Bournemouth and Everton year in year out. That would be worse for them.

I agree and getting out of the championship would be a lot harder this time round

They’ll lose to Everton, draw with Ipswich, get beat by Arsenal and Leicester.

Let’s see where they’re at after the next 4 games. If Wolves and one of the others down there pick up some points it could be real ‘squeaky bum’ time for those last 8/9 games.



Here’s fucking hoping.

Hopefully they go down on goal difference after we've repeated the sick swan derby

Yes.

Busby and the pisscan.

In fact all of the rags' titles have been won by three managers, two of whom have a connection to Manchester City.

In contrast, all of the last three City managers have won the title.
