Me too. We keep our run going, they slip up, lose at our place, that gap can close very quickly.
Believe!

I tip my hat (or consider calling 999) for those brave (or otherwise) to think we still have a chance of catching Wolves.

It ain't happening.

Wolves could easily win another 10 games this season and pass 100 points. Newcastle did and I think this Wolves team is better.

We’ve got a tough run of fixtures at the end. Good to have our rivals at home rather than away. But equally it’d be nice to have some highly winnable games against mid table sides as the season winds down

We need to keep our good run going over the next half dozen games so that we can afford a couple of slip ups

Our rivals have a tough run of fixtures. None of those teams will want to come to Villa Park needing a result.

Have to say after the first few minutes today I was getting stressed with Derby, Bristol City and Fulham winning. Great set of results, but only if we beat the club with not many fans tomorrow

Personally, I can't wait for April. If we're going straight up, we're going to have earn it. And when we do it's going to be, as the kids probably say, epic.

7 more wins needed I reckon after this weekend.

15 games left so less than 50% win ratio.

Whoever would have thought after the Brentford game that we'd win the next 7 and be 2nd. It's ace.

I did not say that but I said after the Sheffield United draw I think it was that we would be five points off autos on New Year's Day and then it's game on.

I didn't think we were playing badly or being outplayed at all.

Still a long way to go, but the team is doing very well and should be pleased with themselves.

2 of our next 3 away from home with a tricky one coming up vs Fulham next. I watched their highlights yesterday and they didn't look that special and Bolton could have won it. But at home they are a better side so it won't be easy at all.

I think that will be completely wrong, it’s far too close at the top. Anyway we’re clearly going to win all of our remaining games.

I've got us to win 7 and draw 6 of our last 15. 86 points.

I reckon 85 will be enough for second. Think Derby and Cardiff will draw loads in the run in. Fulham are too far back.
