A catalogue of poor management decisions from all at the club. A total wreck of a club. The locals here are distraught.
And still contracted to play some awful players huge PL wages.

Shambles up there. To many over paid average to poor players who don’t give a shit but happy on high wages. That’s down to poor decisions at board room and recruitment level
Premier League teams getting further relegated is quite common.

Their fans said poor management when we lost 2-0 there quite a while back.

They need to drop down before they can rebuild. They will be back in a few years. If it clears out the rotten apples from the club, relegation will do them good.

Don’t think they were relegated in successive seasons
Leeds although it included points deduction for administration
Swansea from the old First division to third 83 & 84

no, they have a glass floor that unfortunately has a trap door so they can go through it

I think Rodwell has two years left on £70k p/w.

Just to clarify not necessarily the following season but there’s a far few who have gone down straight away or a season or two later. Premier League era, at least: Bradford, Wigan, Blackburn, Wolves, Portsmouth, Bolton, Blackpool. Charlton, Leeds, Cov, Wimbledon, Barnsley, Sheffield United, Man City from a quick check.
