10 go to the wall
1) потерпеть неудачу, фиаско, провалиться; быть вытесненным, быть вынужденным уступить своё место, сойти со сценыButter's had its day - and from this out, butter goes to the wall. There's more money in oleomargarine... why, you can't imagine the business we do. (M. Twain, ‘Life on the Mississippi’, ch. XXXIX) — Масло отжило свой век и должно сойти со сцены. Можно куда больше заработать на маргарине... Вы не можете себе представить, как хорошо у нас идут дела.
Olive: "...my one all-absorbing fear is that you will in time become so enthralled and interested in his work that you'll allow yours to go to the wall." (N. Coward, ‘The Rat Trap’, act I) — Олив: "...я очень боюсь, что со временем ты так заинтересуешься работой своего мужа, так увлечешься ею, что забросишь свои собственные занятия."
I wavered between injured dignity and the overwhelming desire to express my theories. Injured dignity went to the wall. (A. Christie, ‘The Man in the Brown Suit’, ch. IV) — Во мне боролись уязвленное самолюбие и страстное желание поделиться мыслями о том, чему я была свидетельницей. Последнее одержало верх.
2) обанкротиться, разориться, прогореть; ≈ вылететь в трубуIn this jungle war, the weaker papers go to the wall. (‘Morning Star’) — Война в джунглях Флит-стрит кончается обычно тем, что мелкие газеты вылетают в трубу.

Coward). I wavered between injured dignity and the overwhelming desire to express my theories. Injured dignity went to the wall (A. Christie)2) oбaнкpoтитьcя, paзopитьcя, пpoгopeть; вылeтeть в тpубуSo, whenever a panic came, the big fellows were saved, while the little fellows went to the wall (U. Sinclair). Thousands of country banks saddled with mortgages and loans in default, ultimately went to the wall (F. L. Alien) -
