I can see us getting something at Southampton. No win in 4 games for them. Maybe they are also anxious to avoid the Europa league.

I was listening to the radio and that was a topic of discussion. How the Europa League is something to avoid now for teams. Amazing to think you work hard to do well in the league only to try and not to achieve a certain position to stay out of a competition. It really needs to go back to being a knock out cup tournament.

Just thinking Lee, has there ever been a game that we've watched together that villa have won? That much nervous anxiety in one place must be like a confidence sapping vortex on the players. We should only ever attend games when we know for sure the other will not be in attendance.

I promise not to attend, watch, listen to or follow in any way the Southampton game on Saturday.

Well all I can still only see are wins for everyone and us going down. until we're mathematically safe i can't relax or start thinking about the Cup final or next season. Hull WILL beat tottenham, Sunderland will turn Leicester over and Newcastle will draw at QPR and then beat West Ham. leicester will win their last game v QPR. Last game and Man U will not beat a fired up Hull and after finally succumbing 2 or 3-0 at Southampton an Danny Ings goal in the 78th minute will see us relegated. I can't see how any of that can't happen. Another nervous wait until 3pm next saturday.

Peter, you need to get down to Paddy Power and stick £20 on us to go down and they'll give you £1600 on the 24th May if you think all that's going to happen. That'd probably get you a couple of final tickets too.

I'm hoping Newcastle draw with QPR and lose to West Ham at Sid James Park, Hull lose to Spurs but beat the Plastics at home, sending the Barcodes down on goal difference.

Peter, don't listen to him. I agree completely, we're doomed.

Hmmm, not beyond the realms of possibility. Put £500 quid on it and if the worst does happen you get £62,500 back , nice deposit for a place in Spain.

Looking at QPR today I think you can just add three points to the Leicester and Newcastle tallies already.

And no thanks to caulker on this evidence please.

Caulker looks absolutely atrocious.

You'd think it might be Dicke Dunne who is the weak link in that backline now, factoring in his age.

But it's Caulker all the way.

Haven't both Cardiff and QPR each spent the best part of £10 million on him?

Lunacy.

He looked good at the start for Cardiff, what happened to him?

I'll give it to you Peter, you're one miserable fella. You're like our very own Unlucky Alf. Every silver lining has a cloud...
