Are we in trouble yet?

Current form table, there are clubs with far more to worry about than us.

[l_mckay]

If we can start taking our chances and stop conceding stupid goals I think we could get in the top half,but its worrying at the moment,we have got to beat Blackburn or we're really in the shit!

3 points off 8th. 3 points off the relegation zone. I'm a little concerned but think we will be ok as there's enough quality in our team and the form has improved.

[villa for life]

we are three points off 8th, but if we are talking statistics, we might as well say that out of all the teams between us and 8th, only one has played as many games as us.

[PaulWinch again]

We'll be fine.

Probably.

I stand by my prediction though. My memory is hazy, but I'm sure we have that triumivirate of awfulness three weeks in a row; Dingles, West Ham and Wigan after Blackburn and Bolton and of course Paul Wash putting us out of the cup.

28     26.02.2011     Blackburn Rovers     home               
29    05.03.2011    Bolton Wanderers    away            
30    19.03.2011    Wolverhampton Wndrs    home            
31    02.04.2011    Everton    away            
32    09.04.2011    Newcastle United    home            
33    16.04.2011    West Ham United    away            
34    23.04.2011    Stoke City    home            
35    30.04.2011    West Bromwich Albion    away            
36    07.05.2011    Wigan Athletic    home            
37    14.05.2011    Arsenal    away            
38    22.05.2011    Liverpool    home

None of those fixtures are "easier" than Fulham at home or Blackpool away.

I think a few of them are and Everton and Arsenal apart, none of them are more difficult.

It's worth remembering that we played well for the first half yesterday and we could have won it if we got that late pen. A point at Blackburn is not half as bad as some make out as well. I definitely think Blackburn, Wolves and maybe Wigan are considerably easier games than the last two... Maybe even West Ham away.

Maybe with a few changes and a bit more time we might click and start to get those results. I certainly think those who seem to have a desire to dance on our grave will not get their wish.

[Rip Van We Go Again]

While the defence remains uniformly pathetic, relegation is a possibilty.

Fuck only knows what they work on at the training ground.

Bit harsh, Mark. I though the defence kept us in it second half, particularly after the sending off - we would have lost that a couple of months ago. We're still rubbish at set pieces but we have improved in open play.

[WikiVilla]

I think we have a nasty run-in, we are in a relegation scrap, lets not kid ourselves
Yesterdays 2nd half was very worrying
How are people are predicting us to win at Bolton ?? they're a good side

[eastie]

Every team in the bottom half are in trouble at this moment in time- we have the players and ability to get out of this and a win against Blackburn would help our cause hugely.

[WikiVilla]

That will be a very different Blackburn that turn up than the other week in the FA Cup stroll

Meaning those of us who are shitting ourselves about the absolute disaster that relegation would be? Yes, I'm really wishing for that.

[villa for life]

how have the odds at the bookies changed from a few weeks ago? Do they think we are more or less likely to go down?
