I wonder just how open and honest he might be over the next few days and weeks. I’m betting we will hear nothing from him.

The blame game will start now but anyone with an ounce of sense will have Pace we’ll down that list. He made a gutsy decision and unfortunately it has fallen at the final hurdle.

I hate to say this but under Dyche I don’t think we’d have reached the final hurdle. We were going down under Dyche - every indicator pointed to it.

It’s regrettable but I sense some fans will be happy we’ve gone because they’ve now got a stick to beat Pace with. Wrong guy.

The gutsy decision he made was not having a contingency plan but having a gamble on a ‘bounce’ & you know, the worst offense, plunging our club into debt so he can have a go at being a football chairman.

Pace designed and executed the takeover. It's fair to think Garlick shouldn't have sold it to him but you can't take any of the responsibility from the people who actually did it.

Relegation is nothing to do with Alan Pace. He had the guts to try to prevent it by firing the guy that the team were no longer walking through walls for

And he is nothing to do with the financial situation at the club. The terms of the sale were clearly known by the previous ownership. His offer to purchase and the structure of it was wholly accepted by the sellers. They didn’t have to sell to an offer with that structure

Exactly this - he was well within his right to make the offer that he did and it got the green light from the previous owners and PL.

We need much investment in the transfer window, we lost Wood by no fault of our own and replaced him with Weghorst…

We didn’t sign anyone else. If Wood hadn’t left, what investment in the window would’ve been made?

Alan Pace is out of his depth when it comes to running a football club.

We lost Wood as Newcastle met his release clause. Stop trying to rewrite history. Maybe look back at the transfer windows under the previous chairman.

Because you're blaming nobody but Pace. Garlick wanted to sell the club and Garlick agreed to the leveraged sale. If you're blaming Pace for what's happened, you have to blame the previous regime more.

Totally not the case, even in prophecy. There were three scenarios
- go down under the previous ownership. How does their known MO point to the club evolving or getting promoted again?
- go down under Pace. Certainly the financials are a shackle, but the club was sold into that structure and at least he’s a change agent
- alternate management, which is not worth speculating about

Given the above, I would rather go down with the current management at the helm than the previous
