Will it be enough?
-
Yes probably but it ain't happening
-
It’s over.
Sticking with my prediction.
From 5 to go.
-
LLLL Please, just turn the lights out.
-
we'll score again don't know where don't know when but I know we'll score again some sunny day
-
We could win 3 of those.
God these desperados are good!!
-
I dont think we'll score in any of them, let alone pick up any points.

LLLL. No goals scored.
-
I was hopeful with these 4 games and i fully expected a spanking tonight, but i can't get over the fact we're just not gonna score even if we play well. I'd bet on it if i could bring myself to do it.
-
I said at the start of the restart that we wouldn't win another game, and nothing I've seen has made me change my view. Two points from the next four, and down we go.
-
We won’t even win the coin toss again, let alone a match.
-
I think we will lose all four. We don't have goalscorers. Even if we start well, the opposition eventually realise that we can't hurt them and grow in confidence. At some point there is a dubious decision, an unfortunate deflection or, most regularly, a defensive cock up, we are one-nil down and it's as good as over.
-
Think Sunday will be decisive. If we are still four or more points from safety after that then we will be gone.
-
To win games, you need to score goals. We have the worst attacking options I have ever seen at Villa, and that includes the horse shit that took us down last time. These two up front couldn’t hit water if they fell out of a boat and don’t even start me off on Ronaldo’s runt cousin and the Egyptian Nigel Callaghan. Jokers.
-
For all our efforts in the first 20 minutes of tonight's game, I knew we'd get done. We're blunt.
We knew last August we'd get done, when we only signed one young, unproven Brazilian kid as our only goal getter. We repeated this feat in January, signing some unproven Tanzanian kid as our only goal getter.
I'd throw caution to the wind and play false 9 for last 4 games, with Louie Barry in there. What we've done all season hasn't worked.... at all! Time for one last roll of the dice - If we continue this form/tactics into the Palace game, we're done for certain.

I haven’t laughed much tonight but that made me piss my pants mate cheers

Just don’t see where the goals are going to come from. Add to that confidence has deserted them, a setback in the game and they unravel.

Thing is, he ain’t a kid.... he’s spent his career not pulling up any trees in shit leagues and then we go and sign him.

True... which makes the decisions even more ludicrous! :(

Both draws are 0-0 as we won't score another goal.
Championship here we come.
-
WWWW, we're going to remember how to score and we'll fight another day.
-
Really though, most probably we wont score again and we'll go down without breaking sweat.
-
Even our final four fixtures are laughing at us:
H Palace
A Everton
H Arsenal
A West Ham
-
Cant see us scoring 2 goals let alone getting 2 wins
-
Looks like Ian J has got the drinks in. Salute!

I can't see the table changing personally. I've looked at the fixtures of our 3 competitors and tried to second guess results, and I think because of the 4 point gap we currently have, we'd need to win ALL FOUR of our remaining games to stand a chance. I don't think we'll claim another point - The team and manager are going backwards, and I fear the nail will be in our coffin after the final whistle of the Everton game.

Ahh mate, I love the optimism but I just can’t see us scoring another goal let alone win a game.

That really shows how far we've dropped off - potentially ending 11 points behind a close competitor with only 4 games to go, is grim reading.
-
Nope, nope and thrice nope. We’re down in all but the maths.

Need a bigger area than the Bull Ring for the multitude of fans as well. Social distancing and all that!
