Relegation Possibility

[mr-villa]

Off the top of my head I can tell you we were beating Newcastle, Blackburn, Liverpool, Stoke...

QPR, Sunderland, Everton...

If those are all of the scoring draws, that means we dropped 14 points from them. Utter wank.

Considering we have had five 0-0 draws this season that means that we have been ahead in 7 out of 9 scoring draws so that does suggest a very cautious approach when leading in those games.  See its stats and analysis like this that the board should be considering at the end of the season when deciding whether to continue with Alex next season.

Get the fucker back on then - until we're safe!

Check the stickied threads.

'Cautious' is not the word I would use. 'Incompetent', yes.

Well I thought I would do the Predictor thing on the BBC website. Somehow I managed us going down with 38 points and Swansea dropping on 39. Hmmm, interesting. I never win at the bookies so I'm not too worried about my prediction though.

Blues and last season has no relevance to now. They went down on 39 and no one below us is going to get even close to that so can we stop this 'Blues had 1 more point after 33 games' crap?

Stop talking so sensibly.

I shed a few tears tonight when I saw those results. I only found out what happened on MOTD. I am shell shocked.

Are you for real?

You're not the kind of bloke I'd want to send to Afghanistan.

In terms of relegation it has no real value, but by performance of the manager surely it shows what a completely inept job he is attempting.

I was just casually flicking around when I saw Wigan score on MOTD, flicked on the laptop and saw the table! I am dosed up on flu medication so I am a bit sensitive.... But yes, there were a few tears there in the eyes.

We are perilously close.

God help you if anything serious ever happens.

I've heard it all now.

[Chipsticks]

Win the Bolton game and we're laughing. Either way I'm certain we'll stay up.

[CJ]

The Bolton game is now critical.

A relegation 6-pointer against Bolton ffs - just how far have we fallen?

[Irish villain]

Apologies to one and all. I am an impulsive sort who wears his heart on his sleave. I've never seen villa get relegated and tonight it just dawned on me how likely it is.

Dave, I do actually have a sense of perspective. I'd willingly send villa to the Conference rather than have lost some of the people that I have in the past decade, or go through some of the dark days that I have come through the other end of.

I still think I'm allowed be a bit upset to be confronted with a Premier League without Aston Villa though.
