Where will we be in a decade's time?
« on: February 24, 2013, 06:44:29 PM »
On the BBC Sport feed, they mentioned thirteen years ago, almost to the day, Swansea City were beating Chester 2-1 and Bradford were in the Premier League. Leon Brittan, the Swansea player, also mentioned that ten years ago, Swansea were on the cusp of dropping out of League football altogether.

Today, Premier Leagure Swansea City beat League Two Bradford City at Wembley. It begs the question, where do you think Villa will be in ten years, or more accurately, thirteen years? Will we have forgotten this terrible three year period, or will the club have sunk lower than you ever thought possible? Post your predictions here.

Within the next three years, we'll be in the top six again, under Lambert.

Probably in the Premier League, but I expect to have spent at least one season out of it in the meantime.

Lambert will be back at Livingston.

He will probably be at Livingston mowing the grass.

Probably still looking back wistfully to the occasion when we had a two-legged semi-final against a fourth division team to make a Wembley final.

Finishing somewhere between 6th and 10th in the Premier League.

Or, if a European league is in place, then we'll be looking to win the top league in England.

It's a pointless question really because none of us know what league we'll be in 3 months time never mind what will happen in the next 10 years.

Ironically, it is the lack of points which has precipatated this thread and others like it.
