Donny. all that exposure and money is completely undone by going down, look at Wigan they won the thing and got relegated twice. the way to do it is how Lincoln did last year just breed a great feeling around the club by winning in the league and cup and they topped it off with promotion
The FA cup winners and relegation...no ta.

They were inevitably going to be relegated at some point (and getting relegated again happens), but the glory of winning the FA Cup surely outweighs the disappointment of relegation. Do you think Wigan fans would trade their cup win with, say, Stoke and season upon season of lower mid table fodder?

Winning the fa cup would trump relegation.Possibly getting a spanking away at a team still in the champions league, in a 5th round replay, would not...
Campsall.Winning the cup final would be unreal, but bring back to L2 would mean a new manager, starting again and realistically the end of Copps, so I'll pass if you don't mind.I'm generally more in favour of taking the long term view, rather than the short one. However I accept other people's views. On the flip side Jamie may have wanted to bow out at Wembley.I'm proud of our 100 per cent record at Wembley and the Millenium. How many other teams can claim that?

Could be on my own but I’d take that in a heartbeat.Me too. And me. In fact I’d take winning the League Cup and relegation. Relegation is a fact of life from time to time for a club like us. It happens. You go backwards. You bounce back. Winning a major national cup final might never happen for a club like us. If that possibility ever arose, it would trump everything else.
They need double the points they have now from ten games less and with a ridiculous schedule. I think they're definitely down
