There are actually four games in May, which seemes a lot.
There are and you could argue Everton and West Ham will be comfortable mid table and on the beach so 6 easy points.
Saints will probably be out of the top4 race so there is 3 more
And burnley could be down already so there's 3 more.

I am more worried about playing 46 games next season.

When I did the Football Predictor a few weeks ago I had some teams going down with very low points totals. It looks like I was right. From Everton in twelfth and downwards teams have to win one in three for the rest of the season to reach forty points. It is possible at least one team will fail to reach thirty points. I think Everton and Palace will be okay. It is interesting that Albion have the same points as us but don't get the criticism we do. Although admittedly much of that is down to our lack of goals. Leicester and Hull look in big trouble. We have to see how the managerial change effects QPR. Burnley are limited but will battle and probably pick up a few home points.  Sunderland struggle for goals and points. I think Leicester and Hull will definitely drop along with possibly Burnley. It will be a close run thing for QPR, us, Albion and Sunderland I think.

How did you manage writing all that and not get to mention the most obvious candidate?

Last day fixtures are Leicester v QPR and Villa v Burnley.

With Chelsea probably wrapping the title up early, Sky will be all over that as that has the ominous look of a Survival Sunday or whatever term they'd call it.

Just looking at the remaining fixtures, I think we may go down.
I'm sure we will win the odd game but not much more than that.

I don't think the fixtures are too bad, in theory there are plenty of points there for us, especially at home after Chavski. Reality, who knows with us.

Aston Villa v Chelsea
Hull v Aston Villa
Aston Villa v Stoke
Newcastle v Aston Villa
Aston Villa v West Brom
Sunderland v Aston Villa
Aston Villa v Swansea
Man Utd v Aston Villa
Tottenham v Aston Villa
Aston Villa v QPR
Man City v Aston Villa
Aston Villa v Everton
Aston Villa v West Ham
Southampton v Aston Villa
Aston Villa v Burnley

There's four games we definitely should win if we weren't absolutely incompetent.

Southampton, away, there's talk of a mass Villa fans' jolly up in Weymouth that weekend. Better place to have a relegation party than the one at Wigan a couple of years ago

Has anyone bet on us to go down? What odds did u get?

My bro did before the season started. He put £50 on it at 5/1.

I'm on at the same price. Have backed us each year to go down under Paul Lambert. Certainly we give good value at that price for the last few years.

What saved us last year (our worst since the McNeill season) was how bad the sides under us were. An injury to Ings and Burnley are gone. They will struggle more the season goes on and reckon they will finish bottom well adrift. Looking through the QPR squad, it will be a fair achievement to keep them up. With the exception of Austin and possibly Fer, they really don't have another player that even we would look to buy if they went down. Their squad is full of slow has beens. Leicester are awful and won't improve. I reckon West Brom will be the mostly likely to trouble that trio. The way transfer deadline day fell apart for them doesn't bode well. The likes of Morrison, Segessnon don't really fit into a Pulis side and they will continue to struggle to score goals.

Hull like us should be doing better in the table. To be honest even at our worst I see us in the pile with Palace, Hull and Sunderland. Any decent improvement and honestly think we will cruise to safety.
