barry_mack Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 We will be at our level in terms of stadia, infrastructure, fans etc. We will be at our level in terms of the football played. It will mean we are 1 step closer to a Bristol derby. We will be able to celebrate goals and wins again. It will get rid of 90% of the morons on here who are just here because they are glory supporters. If we lose the morons, we can go back to being a nicely close knit community, as opposed to the hostile environment we have seen over the last 5 years. We will be able to clear out the squad so that Delboy can finally put the groundwork in and create his own team. It will finally put an end to this new stadium nonsense. We might be able to get some momentum and do a Southampton. Lansdown will realise it's shit or bust in this industry, probably making him want to up sticks and write off his debts. Fontaine will leave meaning we can move on to our next scapegoat (£10 says it's Nyatanga). Ticket prices might go down. We will get less media coverage, so won’t lose any of our unearthed diamonds to the big boys. We will be a less attractive proposition, so will get less of the new breed of moron fans. We will be able to look back on our hayday of 2007-2012. We might be able to get GJ back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been a City fan all my life, my father worked for the club in 1982. And it's very ironic you call me a moron... On the other hand Esmond has supported the club for over 50 years. The only moron around here is the one who wants his team to be relegated... You're everything that's wrong with this club. Glory hunters? Pahahaha. ******.

I don,t know, but there's more of a chance being a good football team in league 1 rather then the championship, which is obviously a too higher level for this club.

Just ask gas fans if they thought the same about getting relegated and being a good team. it is a total and utter nonsense notion, most of his 'reasons' are not even 'reasons' they are consequences.

Eddie Hitler Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 As somebody who started going again (after a break in exile) in 1995 after we'd been relegated I am a contrarian on this instead view the worst thing for the club is year after year of relegation struggles. Dario Gradi who consistently over-achieved with Crewe would some years, when they had an injury crisis or had sold and not replaced their best players because the money on the table was too good to refuse, accept that they were going down and look to the next season. No panic buys or emergency loans, just look at getting a good squad ready for a promotion challenge the next year. Relegation, if handled correctly by the management, can be a good thing for a club for many of the reasons that Barry says. Overall we woudl be in better shape if we went: 2012/13 down 2013/14 promoted 2014/15 challenging for play-offs than if we go; 2102/13 relegation struggle 2013/14 relegation struggle 2014/15 relegation struggle I'd rather stay up of course, but as it stands another few years of the form we have shown this season will be worse for the club long term than the drop.
