Relegation would be an unmitigated disaster. A long way back.

This as opposed to the inpet decision making and dirge and directionless dross served up most of the last 4 seasons.

The Championship, would be horrendous for us, lots of half decent clubs, Villa park would be the biggest ground a lot of them would ever have played at,(their cup final syndrome) we as a whole would be on a downer, and there for the picking, thanks randy.

this is now our fourth season of scrapping and the odds are shortening.

We only came straight back up under SGT because of our away record. We only won 11 out of 26 home games and dropped a lot of points at home to teams who ended up near the bottom.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but last night I posted a question to our Lord McGrath on Titter, and he responded with two tweets to me today, the guy is pure class. He said he thinks we will just be ok this season .

The Telegraph's take on it. Predicted a 10th place finish!

Nursey in the Mirror this morning is churning out the same old lie that "Villa fans targeted McLeish for abuse the moment he took charge at Villa having quit from arch rivals Small Heath". The truth which Nursey never allows to get in the way of his anti Villa bile, is, as we all know, the vast majority of the fans gave McLeish every Chance to prove himself.

Indeed we did.

Most of us didn't give two shits where he came from, rather his recent record in relegating a club twice in 3 attempts.

Unlike Lerner most of us wouldn't give a second's thought of credence to old Purple Noses retro recomendation based on the record of his accolytes in Management. Just an easy 6 points guaranteed.

Many thought he would be hopelessly out of his depth taking over Villa at a difficult time.

Many of us feared turgid dire defensive minded football with unimaginative tactics.

Some of us thought it was a small time appointment and signalled the end of the club with any thoughts of Top 6 finishes.

Unlike the Gobshite Nursery we were mostly right.

I don't think that's wholly serious. They have included the kit as one of the measures.

Yes, I know, but I'll still take any brumb of comfort right now.

The Sun's Fantasy Football advert has dejected Villa fans walking away after a defeat but one is slightly happier as he has just won 7 points for his team.

I'd like to make reading the Sun an automatic ban.

Yes we did but those protesting at Villa Park just ahead of the appointment were plastered all over the press and TV and the seed was planted as far as the narrative for the season went.

Yep.
