I know mathematically we can still survive.
But there is Maths and then there are the facts in front of you - we are a already a Championship team and a team that needs root and branch treatment.
I don’t care if Pardew stays on until the end of the season to avoid a payout. He does not deserve any compensation for this farce. Add to that many of the players will be gone as well and so I have almost dismissed association with them until the summer when we rebuild.
We will need to pray that the chairman and the club wake up and implement a radical rebuild. Because if we arrogantly assume a new manager and a tweak of the squad is enough then we will be doomed to stay in the Championship for many years.
