[Giraffe]

Which season will we next be relegated. Post your prediction here for re-bounce at some point in the future!

Approximately three weeks after I make the decision to return permanently to England and get a season ticket.

Ha, if man is still alive.

 

[Questions]

We’ll stay up if we can get 3 points tomorrow…..

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

It will happen. It will be a shock to many. Maybe 2 or 3 years left in this up tick so I will go for 2026/27.

I'm already practicing folding my arms, looking pensive and occasionally tutting for when that day arrives.

On Saturday 3rd May. @Giraffe’s 20th generation descendent will bounce this thread to mark your win.

From our current position of strength I reckon it would take a combination of the following, in order of importance: 1) A manager that doesn't work out 2) 2 bad transfer windows in a row 3) loss of 1 or 2 key players 4) A season where 2 of 3 promoted clubs have a stormer. 5) loss of key backroom staff.

It is inevitable at some point though, nothing lasts forever in football.

I'll go for 27/28

RDZ leaves at end of 24/25 after failing to qualify for Europe again.

Maverick managerial appointment that doesn't work out in 25/26, gets fired, a few players start to leave and not replaced with same quality.

26/27 new manager bumbling around lower mid table not really up to much.

27/28 no improvement in results, manager fired part way through season but doesn't stop relegation.

Okay seems a bit far fetched.

 

[Farehamseagull]

That’s the spirit!

 

[Uh_huh_him]

There's a reasonable chance that our recruitment model gets successfully cloned by 3 or 4 more other clubs, who aren't so concerned about trying to break even. Add in a few mid-sized clubs getting bought out by Yanks and middle eastern states.
This eventually slows our supply of players and managers, and as average wages continue to rise we find ourselves, struggling in a better quality division.

I could see us slipping down the league in this scenario, which would probably take a minimum of 7 years to take hold.
So I'll go for 2031/32

Did anyone bounce my prediction on East Stand Chat in 1983 when I said 'we'd be back'. I clearly stated it would be 2017 and that by 2023 we'd be in Europe.
Those around me laughed so I went back to the bar knowing it could never happen.

Assuming your post didn’t generate much noise?
