We are worse now than at any point though Soccer, you must see that. If Petrov does not make the Blackburn game and we lose it for whatever reason, we should be shitting ourselves. Bottom clubs always spurt at the end of the season. Urgency hits them and they galvanise. Apart from Blues last season, who from now sank like a stone with more points than we have now and a couple of significant injuries, just like... oh us. To not be a little concerned is mightily naive.

Spot on, there was me thinking, probably lose this, the only consequence of that is we continue to bumble along with yet more pressure on the manager, not so, we lose to Blackburn and we are in the crapper well and truly, in fact I would go as far as to say we need 3 from this, Bolton and Fulham giving us 9 pts, doubt we would get anything of Stoke and, Sunderland, that's going to be like a cup final, common sense tells you the other games are teams fighting tooth and nail for Champions League and pride.

Lose to Blackburn and we could be on a slippery slope, what a mess to get in for a team like Villa.

That's the most depressing thing of all.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17211334 Any other away side would put a club in such disarray to the sword. Villa are more likely to become the starting point for Steve Kean's successful run to England manager and also win Yakubu a knighthood.

The scary stat in there - 14 wins from 54 games - Eck is on for about par with that.

The worst thing about this thingy is the comparison with SHA last year. It looks the same thingy in too many ways. Alex really does appear to be a poor thingy.

This year 32 points is the relegation number this year. 3 out of 5 tems below us will not get to 32 so we will be safe with 33. We we only get to 33 someone deserved to be sacked!

15th - 36 points. Blackburn, Wigan, QPR to go down. I have Citeh winning the league 7 points clear on 97!!

Hmmm...I think I might be a little full of shit! I think our position will be pretty close though.

15th on 36, but 6 points behind fulham in 14th.

wigan wolves and qpr relegated - bolton surviving on 30 points.  I may have been harsh to the bottom 4 but they are all really poor, can only see blackburn rallying to anything from the current bottom 5.

city 1 point ahead of utd as champions.

Not just you chap but when people do these prediction thingys (wink) they usually pretty much give the title chasing teams maximum points and the bottom teams hardly any points. Safe to say it won't turn out like that, they'll be some shock results in the run in as there always is, who knows we might scrape a point against a top 8 team!

Man. City will probably win the league but it will probably be lower tally than 97 points.

I guess we need 9 points, we need to get most of these from the next 3 games, if we dont we are in for a fight to survive and I dont trust this set up to achieve that
