Is it better to know that your team is going to be relegated like we are. or to spend the rest of the season in an anxiety state worrying about it while hovering about in 16th or 17th. In my case I seem not to give a fuck about the outcomes of games this year, and even forget the games are on the telly (four times now).

Take your point, but we are very close to knowing our fate now, but if the gap closes then yea it's going to be a fucking nightmare. I'm not one who buys into all this going down would be a good thing etc, playing in the Championship in a half empty bowel could well be the death nail for the club imo.
I'm not sure where the fun is losing 0-1 at home to Lincoln on a Tuesday night. I still have nightmares about that Stoke game.

I aint happy about it but pretty much resigned to championship football next season. However, I dont want us bouncing straight back with a load of these cunts still in the squad, I want a few seasons of full reset to shed all the cunts, financially depress the prick Sullivan and get our youths into the first team and playing proper football under a manager who isnt a horrendous negative cսnt.
What would be the point of staying up this season? We'd just be a fuckin mess next season and repeating the same mistakes. May as well try to rebuild from the ground up. It'd be nice to actually like the players playing for my club again. I dont like many of these cunts masquerading as experienced professionals we have. Maybe two. Tolerate another three perhaps. The rest can fuck off and optionally die, I dont care.
Sorry we do not want a few seasons in the lower leagues. The fastest way to be rid of the cancer (Sullivan) is to come straight back and him sell. He wont sell us in the Championship or League 1 and with the debt the club has, once the parachute payments cease we have one foot in administration, and I don't put it past that cսnt to fold us up and walk away. That would be the most likely 'reset'

I’ve accepted we’re down, gutted to be honest. I’m just surprised so many still hold hope and believe we have a slim chance of staying up. I can see us finishing more than 7 points adrift of safety at the end of the season.

Not anxious in the slightest.
Looking forward to the Championship.
