I am (almost) resigned to relegation but the fact that we are not cut adrift in spite of probably the worst run in our history gives me some glimmer of hope

Four wins and a few draws might just be enough? Surely we can beat QPR and a few of the clubs with nothing to play for (Fulham, Norwich, West Ham?) and grab a few surprise draws (Liverpool, Everton?) Say that leaves us on 34 points on the last day of the season, beat Wigan and we'd have a chance of staying up on 37 points. We also have to go to Reading so that is another game that could yield us some points.

These are all big ifs and we simply have to get a minimum of three points from our next too.

Clutching at straws now.... If they had bought a defender and midfielder we'd all fancy our chances.

It is incredibly stupid of the club to have let things slide.

...I dream of us landing 2 or 3 experienced defenders and midfielders before the transfer day deadline tomorrow

I have almost resigned myself to relegation, but anyone know the latest odds on us staying up ?

I think we'll stay up because I've got a 12 inch cock, am shagging Cheryl Cole and I have more money than I know what to do with.

We will stay up because...

I put money on us going down. It's saved us the last two seasons at any rate.

I think we will stay up because I can't contemplate existing in a universe where Robbie Savage is proven right.  Ever.  About anything.

Balls. I'd forgotten about that. Savage said that months ago too, before things really went wrong. He's going to be crowing about this come May (April).

I dont think so. They forced him to make a retraction after the Liverpool game. I think the BBC must have had a word with their pundits and told them not to make bold predictions about this or that team being relegated. The net result is that you alienate some of the punters, and give the impression that the BBC is `biased'.

Talkshite don't care because they are desperate for the attention. But it taints the BBC's impartiality to be seen to knock any particular club.

I think we will stay up because.... aliens will come from outer space and declare war on earthlings, resulting in the suspension of all footballing activities worldwide until war is at an end.

When war is over in early January 2015 and the earthlings have won because the aliens forgot to bring a packed lunch and starved to death and the football season re-commences, some captured prisoners-of-war aliens decide to settle here and Villa become the first club to sign a non-human player in the January transfer window - a nine-foot tall, brick-shithouse-esque target man with more pace than Usain Bolt. Opponents have no idea how to deal with this new found attacking focus and Villa climb the table to safety.

As you can tell, I'm currently resigned to the club's fate, sadly.

We'll stay up if we stick together, stay positive and get fortress Villa Park up and running.  It's time for us to draw a line in the sand and get the club rocking.  It can be done.

Also, everyone stick some money on Villa to go down, lose every up coming match etc. to mess up Sod's Law/Murphy's Law/karma etc.  We are not going down!!
