I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m actually looking forward to next season, and I really wasn’t that fussed that we went down. If we had a decent squad, and didn’t deserve to go down, I think ide be a bit more gutted. However, I think the squad is rotten, and needs a complete overhaul and weirdly I think relegation maybe exactly what we need.
If we can keep
Rudoni Spencer Helik Baulker Nicholls
And build a squad around them I think we could actually have quite a good season. I have no idea why I feel optimistic about it, just something is telling me this is what we need. If the gaffer decides to leave, I would give it to Worthy for the year. May take 2 years to do it, but I’m really looking forward to it!

Zero chance Helik stays
We don't need Nicholls to stay. Maxwell more than good enough for league one
I really hope Rudoni stays but pretty sure there will be offers for him. I'm predicting he ends up at Derby

With AB in charge no chance, although I appreciate he may well walk this summer or get sacked in November when we are in bottom half of table. I hope I am wrong but I don’t see anything to suggest. AB is any better than last 2 encumbants.

Said to my brother today, getting promoted to the premier league was one of the worst things that’s happened to us in the long run. Maybe relegation to league one will be the best thing that could’ve happened to us when we look back in a few years time - who knows.

Maybe relegation to league one will be the best thing that could’ve happened to us when we look back in a few years time - who knows. Getting to the PL was fine. With hindsight, the worst thing was staying up. If we'd have just missed out on staying up, we'd all have been happy at putting up a good fight. We'd have come down with a positive feeling around the place and a squad of players much better suited for The Championship than the shower we ended up with.

We'd also have a manager at the helm who actually knows how to be a fucking manager

May take 2 years to do it, but I’m really looking forward to it! Rudoni and Helik will definitely have decent Championship teams in for them. We'll do well to keep hold of Spencer with the end of season he's had. Nicholls, not bothered either way. Not been great since the play off season. Baulker- not really seen enough of him.

I'm predicting he ends up at Derby One of the guests on the AHTTC made a good point that a player with 2 relegations in 3 seasons may not really have the highest stock anymore but he'll probably leave. I think Rudoni will only leave if a good offer comes in and we'd probably price the likes of Derby out of signing him

I hope the lads who've put a shift in for us get decent moves and have good careers. Rudoni Helik especially
I don't really care about ability, just the fight for the badge

Nicholls?
Get rid.
We have the 3rd worst save percentage in the division by club.
He has the worst save percentage of any keeper to have played over 20 games
Doesn’t leave his line except the last few weeks he’s seen fit to run out of his box after conceding and point / Pat others on the back. If he moved that quickly facing shots we’d be better off
No chance keeping Helik. Can’t see us keeping Rudoni sadly - he’ll go onto have a great career. Baulker looks good, can’t see him dropping to league 1 aside recent injury record

We’ll be left with what Championship clubs don’t want. I just hope the players leaving go asap not at the end of the transfer window when the season has already started.

A number of adjustments to be made.
Lower crowds in L1, will be up to the players to generate the atmosphere by what they do on the pitch.
Fewer away supporters.
Less TV coverage/money.
I think I’m right in saying that the last time we dropped from this level was before the top end of the game was rolling in gold? A few supporters will have to adjust quickly, because it won’t be easy, promotion is never easy from any division.
On the plus side, we can have a tilt at doing all 4 titles… 😉
Just another dip on the roller coaster today, let’s hope the next up slope isn’t too far away.
ST’s sensibly priced please Town, otherwise you’ll lose more fans than you may be anticipating…

Baulker looks good, can’t see him dropping to league 1 aside recent injury record Can’t see where Balker is going to go apart from back to the Dutch 2nd division. He’s played 4 games for us in 3 months and has a shocking injury record. All well and good looking like a good player if you’re never fit. We were crying out for a passing midfielder and instead the geniuses at the club decided to sign an injury prone centre half when we already had 3 adequate ones. Absolute stupidity.

League one it’s more about the social side of match day. Forget about the football. Try & get the wins needed for promotion. None of the teams have anyone that good and there’s no a lot of football played.

Whoever is manager needs two years - probably won't be AB
The upheaval will be massive this summer and it's very unrealistic to expect promotion next season - I hope we can but I don't think it's realitic
Let the new man have the 24/25 to build his side, clear out of the shit and stop the rot with a proper push the plan in 25/26
Sorry if that sounds pessimistic but I don't want us changing manager again in 12 months and wondering why we never build anything. Look at Cov with Robins - if you get the right manager in they can build something if given sufficient time

I agree that it would be nice to offload some of the players who clearly don't care. Very difficult when they're still under contract though.
Helik, Rudoni, Thomas and Nicholls will most likely find new clubs in the championship
I think the following players could be very useful in league 1 (if they're willing to stay):
Pearson Turton Wiles Healey Radulovic Rhodes Headley
The rest can go for me

I’d add Helik but he deserves to play higher.

It seems desperate but I think Rhodes could do a job in league 1. He was scoring goals for Blackpool before he got injured. You can get out of league 1 with a team of old cloggers, it's all about the manager

Don’t think anyone would disagree that it’s never a good time to get relegated but in our case with a new owner who is still (presumably) engaged and enthused it could suit us. It will have really shown him how difficult the leagues are here and the scale of the task ahead.

A very very harsh lesson in English football for KN, irrespective of division if you're not up to it you're gonna get found out.
