Or instead, maybe we promote academy products and find our best team was under our noses the whole time.

What could happen is we drop to league 1 then bounce back
go on to win the championship then ultimately win the premiership
venkys carried aloft through Blackburn
or this could be the beginning of the end
I am very concerned by the lack of structure at the club
being reliant on youth is fine especially if you are to be financially well run
but if the structure is poor how the he'll do you expect the building to stay up
once the men at the top are sorted then we can move forward as a club.

I'm hoping, Robin, that the two things don't HAVE to be inter-linked.
The administration has been a train-wreck, and the knock-on effects are still evident, but I don't think relegation is inevitable. There will be a lot of "small" clubs in the Championship again next year, and as we see every season, this Division throws up a lot of surprise results. There usually turn out to be two or three teams who "click" and become dominant. Then there isn't much to choose between the next fif**** or so. As it turns out, one point per game across the season is enough to keep you up!
If you look at the big picture where our club is concerned, things seem dire, but that won't necessarily be demonstrated on the pitch.

I quite like going down ......

I hope we don't go on to discuss what it takes to "keep you up"....

The biggest problem aucks is the fact we are going to be looking at a chunk of the team being products of the academy
we have quite a few players leaving through contracts/loans ending and with very little money to invest
That puts emphasis on our youth squad to produce
in my opinion that is quite dangerous as it puts alot of pressure on young shoulders
sink or swim springs to mind.

It's very much akin to the Euro dilemma. All of us have our thoughts, hopes and opinions.
But fact is........none of us really know.
In some ways it's quite exciting (if that's the right word and putting totally out of your mind the Venkys). By this I mean 'the challenge'.
