[Archived] If we go down who stays?


Recommended Posts

Sorry I know this is depressing and we dont really what to think about what could happen but if we did go down....

I really hope we do survive but if i was betting man I wouldnt know which way to go.

So if we went down who would stay and pick you starting 11 of the current crop of players

Bunn

Salgado Nelson Jones Emerton

Diouf Nzonzi Peds

Formica

Rochina Kalnic

That would be a really good side for a championship club and if we play to our potential should come stragiht back up.

I think Robinson,Givet,Samba,Olsson Hoilett would leave. Losing those players though would set us back a good few seasons

I think we may be able to persude Jones to stay for one year if we are very lucky if not Hanley would replace him.

I think that is pretty good team even if peds left we would have morris not sure who would replace Diouf if he went. I imagine we prob look to get rid of Salgado as well because of his wages.

It's completely unrealistic. No way would Diouf and Pedersen be here.

Regardless, that team would get eaten alive in the Championship. Formica, Rochina and Kalinic up front? No chance!

Look at the top end of the Championship. Those teams are full of Championship level experience, suited to the style of football down there.

I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say we'd be candidates for relegation with that team. Just ask Middlesbrough.

Like trying to pin a tail on a break-dancing donkey.

If we go down, will Venky's abandon ship? Will they stay? Will the transfer budget remain the same, maybe it will go up or down? If we change owners, how much will the new people have?

I'm with Le Chuck, if we go down, we'll get hammered every week without reinforcements. Salgado wouldn't know if it was Christmas Day or Easter Monday.

I'd imagine from the current crop

Bunn

Ramm Nelsen Hanely Morris

Emerton Nzonzi Dunn Olsson

Benjani Rochina

The likes of Samba, Hoilett, Jones and Robinson will be snapped up straight away whilst I imagine the likes of Kalinic, Formica and Salgado will go back overseas.

I can't see any way back for us should wo go down.

realistic i would go for

Fielding

Emerton Nelsen Hanley Ramm

Doran Nzonzi Dunn formica

Rochina Roberts

subs

gunning

zurab

lowe

andrews

linganzi

benjani

blackman

We could be looking at a good bit of money of if we play hard ball, Jones 10-15million, Diouf + MGP 1mill, Olsson 3million, samba 5million, Robbo 3million, givet £500,00, Kalanic 4Mill Hoilet 5mill so thats round about the 30million mark, so if venkys have like phillip says put something in place incase we get relegated and the money from sales we should be able to add a few new faces and push for promotion if the worst comes to it.

I just saw this and it made me nervous.

http://www.football-news.com/category/Newcastle-United-FC-News/Newcastle-United-reveal-cost-of-relegation-201103300002/

They have a far bigger gate take than we do, we'll be right in the mire surely if we drop.

That said, I just can't see it happening,...

Actually, yes I can.

I think its just blind faith and my heart telling me otherwise.sad.gif

I would think the best policy would be get rid of the likes of Emerton, Diouf and Pederson and try to cling on to Fielding, Jones, Hoillet and Olsson. I remember last time we went down we came back stronger as we had a nucleus of talented young players, once Souness came in and got shut of some of the deadwood things improved. The last thing you need is ageing has beens who are on a fortune and have little hunger when you are trying to get out of that league. To be honest I would be quite confident of coming back up as long as the managerial situation was sorted.
