Delete data from iPad 2

I have an iPad 2 with an apple id which is no longer supported so I cannot log into it to delete my data. Any help would be appreciated

Consider that if you cannot access the iPad, neither can anyone else. If you are able to enter a Passcode, repeated entry of different incorrect passcodes will eventually cause the iPad to become disabled - at which point any locally stored data is effectively crypto-erased.
