I would like warnock to have a decent 25 to 20m and take the best of the championship so we have the british based players in the main on same sort of wages keeping the excellent squad harmony. If we do go down we will bounce back with a stronger squad.
This going down and back up with back with a better squad doesn't work in reality though.
Last season Boro, Sunderland and Hull down, none back up.
Season before, Newcastle, Norwich, Villa down, one back up, Newcastle
Season before that, Hull, Burnley, QPR down, Hull and Burnley back up
Season before that, Us, Norwich and Fulham, none back up
Season before that, Wigan, Reading, QPR down, none back up
Season before that, Bolton, Blackburn, Wolves down, none back up.
So out of the last 18 teams relegated from the Premiership only 3 have bounced back straight away and one of them was Newcastle United, one of the biggest teams in England, and out of those 18 only 4 will be in the Premiership next season.
The last thing we wan't to to is go straight back down.
