I don't know much about them other than I really feel for their fans today. EPL and then two relegations. I saw someone on Twitter say that a club being relegated from the EPL had a fifty percent chance of being relegated the next season as well. Is that actually true?
(Almost) no football fans deserve to see that.

No, all part of the process. Feel more sorry for glory hunters who will never know the lows. Our cup win was enhanced by being the first side from a lower division to win it since ww2. (The cup that is, ww2 went to Hearts on a penalty shoot out with Germany).

I always look out for the Sunderland and Newcastle results.
Sad day for the Makems. Alas it's their own doing. Feel for the fans though. No way a club of that stature should let themselves get into this situation.
"Apple's will grow again" an old wag once said. We came back and I'm sure the Black Cats will too.... someday.Last edited by snooky; 21-04-2018 at 11:50 PM.

Never forgave them for signing Craig Gordon for £9 million and bankrolling Hearts for years.
Sayonara.

They revelled in Newcastles relegation, rightly so that's football. I'm not going to feel sorry for them in return though. Hope they stay down for a long time.

My uncle is a Newcastle die hard and he is delighted - says that Newcastle got the absolute piss ripped out of them after relegation from the prem so he's loving watching them suffer!

Am I right in thinking as theyre relegated two seasons in a row it triggers a parachute payment from the Premier? When it happened to Woves didn’t they get £30 million?

£150 million for finishing bottom?! Realistically how long would it take for a Scottish club to make that!

Interestingly, you don’t get any prize money for winning the EFL Championship and the TV money is split equally.

I have a passing interest in Newcastle and oddly enough one of the jibes from Sunderland fans was enjoy home and away to Burton Albion next year. Don't want to portray Derek McInnes as anything other than a decent manager but he has seen something at that club that told him to stay away. The English game has huge clubs outside of the premier league and teams no bigger than us in it.

He stayed away cause he was told there was no money to spend and had to deal with the players already there. Sunderland are in a really bad way and until a new owner is found it will continue

I feel for them.
I work in Sunderland Hospital once a year and their engineering department are all season ticket holding Sunderland fans.
Really decent football fans who listened intently with misty eyes when I told them the story of Hibs winning the Scottish cup..No Eternal Reward Shall Forgive Us Now For Wasting The Dawn

Had said at the start of the season they were in serious danger again.
