Not completely, had we beaten Norwich we'd have been in with half a shout.

Just 6 games to go win them all, and were in the promised land.

Took me a sec.

Sadly 2nd place has definitely gone now, but I strongly fancy us to win the play-offs. Key players will be back from injury, some well rested, and several hitting top form at just the right time. 26th May is the most important day in our history and will always remain so. Stay positive guys !

The date of this year's playoff final is a sign!

Looking very much like it's going to be Boro in the two legged play off.

Cardiff have the best defence in the league so have to give them credit for that. I also heard on commentary that warnock took over when they were in relegation zone so he's done a job better than Bruce at this moment.

Have to respect that and also  be very frustrated that could have been villa in promo picture.
I feel if Agnew made some difference coming in and helping with coaching yet there were games where weren't at the levels in winning some matches had expected too.
I just hope they get it all together for the play offs.
In spite of least fancying to play Fulham I am aware they lost in play off semis last season to Reading.
Grabban was involved in that for reading both legs.
Drew the first leg 1-1 home against 10 men and lost 1-0 away second leg.
So you can say they have form in not making it.
Sheffield wed were the same in recent seasons..

Don't look back in anger.........but I can't help but think of the poor results we've had since the Wolves win .......if only eh?
Cardiff and Fulham have in the main beaten those sides we have recently lost to ....so frustrating
But I'll settle for the following results over the next 4 weeks - LLDWW

I reckon Brentford could get the other playoff spot. It could be a Villa v Brentford final as Brentford have taken 4 points off Fulham this season.

Borough play Millwall next. If Millwall lose that makes us vs Boro very likely and could let Brentford into 6th to trip up Fulham.

Oh and Cardiff will beat Derby in the 91st minute.

I still see us winning at Wembley and Terry lifting his 20th trophy and saying that's it, I'm done.

If Fulham win on Friday night they’ll be 6 points ahead. They’re playing Sunderland.

Assuming they do, it’s play offs

Of all the contenders I think id fancy derby in the semi finals

We could make that more likely by losing on Saturday. Though it would mean they’d done the double against us
