This is the season...

[Tokyo Sexwhale]

Target of 30 more points to make it 37 which might just be enough.

So the equivalent of 10 wins in 21 games.  I just can't see it happening.

We need administrations now.

We're down and people need to get used to that.  We'd need around another 30 points from 21 games, and having won 1 game all season, that just isn't going to happen.  That's either 10 wins, or say 7 wins and 9 draws.  Isn't going to happen, we just don't have the players to achieve it.

sadly this is true.

no we are not and no it is not

We need to finish above three other clubs, that's it.

I agree. As tough as it's going to be, it's still possible.

West Ham looked to have all the penetration of a butter knife on the weekend. Score a goal and we certainly wont lose, score twice and we will almost certainly win.

The 6th Army pushed Ivan so far back that they could feel the Volga lapping at their heels. All around them was chaos and certain defeat until one successful probing counter attack re-took ground against a blunted attacking force. When we beat the Facists (yes, Chelsea would work better but those Chicken Run gimps must be both pwopa right wing as well as pwopa nawty) we can replenish with Siberian reinforcements in January and launch a huge counter attack, only possibly because of our disasterous five year plan.

I guess the point is, I like history and the Villa. More importantly you are not defeated until you accept it.

Let's hope the supplies make it through the Norwegian Sea to Archangel then, and aren't holed below the water-line before they reach half-way.

A month or so ago I was thinking keep the gap to 17th place around 5 points at the half way stage and were still in the mix, to have any chance of being in that position we will need to beat West Ham and Norwich, not likely but you never know, I can't quite give up on us but just a point or 2 against those clubs and I might type a simple YES in response to the title of this thread.

[QuintonVilla]

We need 7 points minimum from these next three games. No chance. I don't think we'll win any of them.

Whilst the second half at Newcastle was an improvement, it was just basic stuff. We battled a bit and put a few balls into the box which is the bare minimum you'd expect of footballers on vast wages. Really we still should have lost, 99 times out of 100 that headed sitter they missed goes in and we lose.

Watching West Ham the other day I thought Fat Sam was still there. Not much going forward but very solid and hard to break down. It will be 0-0 or 0-1.

To be fair to them, all of their first choice front five are injured. That's bound to hit a team's creativity.

Agreed. Payet is a huge miss, good player.

Can't see us breaking them down though.

Remi agrees (with the 10 wins bit):
