Relegation?

[claret and blue blood]

Anybody else wake up early and lie there fretting and hurting ,then come on here to confirm we are at our lowest ebb ever as a club?
I feel like the passengers must have felt on that Japanese 747 when the rudder went and they had time to contemplate their impending doom before it inevitably flew into a mountain.

2.15 by my bedside clock when I woke up and started fretting.   The end of this season cannot come fast enough.

Indeed although I do take comfort in us all feeling the same way. My family are blissfully unaware this is all going on and I know very few Villa fans down here so H and V is somewhere to share the grief and the pain.

Well it's keeping me awake at night mulling over the permutations. As I can't see us getting another point we will just have to pray that Fulham, Norwich or one of the other two don't win their last two games. Seems unlikely but it's happened many times before.
My daughter has only been once this year (first baby arrived pre season), she insists she wants to come Saturday, feels she needs to be there, good on her for the support. That's all we can do, get down there and try and help them over the line but as many have said if there is not major change relegation will come eventually.

On the bright side, when we need a result at home, in front of an up-for-it full house, Im thinking QPR and Sunderland, we are capable of gettting it.

Then again I bet on three permitations of us winning yesterday so what do I know?

Given our form against teams around us we may have a better chance in the final 2 matches

[Matt Collins]

I'm thinking more Bolton two years ago . .

I'm counting on the shitness of others

I'm not having this lowest ever ebb hyperbole though. We got relegated in the mid 80s and we've had some shocking teams since then - dr Jo, oleary, GT mark two.

I've got to point where I'm happy to just let it be.... I've tried so many permutations of lucky clothes, joined in with the singing at games, boo'd at games, betted against us and nothing works. I've just accepted that our players aren't good enough.

The weekends are depressing but by Wednesday I'll be looking forward to the game, then the real killer is about 10 mins into the game when you remember again how bad they are.

cries into his morning tea.

Shit on the pitch and chaos behind the scenes.

[PaulWinch again]

It's very very tight now and I'm terrified. But if we go we fully deserve to.

[claret and blue blood]

I'm glad I'm not the only one with the lucky charms/superstitions thing,but I've reached the conclusion that there is no such thing as a 'lucky' pair of socks!
Regarding the 'hyperbole' of our being at our lowest ebb,that's my opinion of our current plight.I did get the cane at school along with a few others (Holte Grammar) when we ran down to Villa park to hand in a petition to the old Norman Smith board ( we got as far as the boardroom door).
They phoned the school and our Head was editing for us at the gates of Villa Park)
This still feels worse !

This is so true. It was even sooner against Southampton, when did Lambert miss the header? That terrible feeling in the pit of your stomach with the realisation this is going to be shit. Again.

I am hoping that Hull would settle for a point against us, as they have before.

[Walmley_Villa]

Draws are the best we can hope for - we simply have no goal threat. 1 point could be enough but I am haunted by the thought of us following the Blues out of the league by losing at Spurs...

Small Heath did quite well that day only losing 0-1
We will lose 4 or 5-0 easily
