Relegation could well turn out to be a "disaster" but it could also be a chance to flush out the dead wood and rejuvenate again. And, no, this shouldn't be interpreted as me hoping for relegation, I just have a pragmatic outlook on life and sometimes a 'one step back, two steps forward' event *can* lead to a better long term outcome than stagnating on the same spot. But, yes, I accept it could equally be a long term disaster...
