It's a sad day when this question is asked, especially for the 3rd year in a row.

Competitive in the Premier League.

This. We are Aston Villa. A bad season for us should be finishing outside the top ten.

This is modern football. There are some big clubs below us......

I know that and we have been down before. But we have had a solid run in the top flight and should be consolidating because look at those big clubs who went down in the PL era. Leeds and Sheffield Wed haven't got back up because it isn't like that 70s or 80s anymore.

And plenty of clubs have gone down who have come straight back up.

True, but it's a risk I'd rather not take.

Too right. It's also worth remembering, the last time we were down there our home record was pretty crap anyway.
