MOTD

[pauliewalnuts]

If anything, it feels to me like the media have accepted we're going to qualify for the Champions League, it almost seems a given.

Last season it seemed like there was about five months of mad, frothing excitment in the media at how Newcastle might finish in the top four. Then, around February when it moved from being possible to likely, to inevitable to mathematically certain it just stopped being interesting for them.

It was just a thing that had happened. Given the fourth / fifth thing looks a bit like it's going to make no difference and it looks like the current top five will probably end the season there, there's limited mileage in them talking about it.

Add to that, I know this all feels incredible to us because of where we've been. But look at it from a neutral perspective: we have a top six squad and a top four manager. It's not that much of a surprise that we'll finish fourth or fifth, is it?

Also, we're Aston Villa.

We're nudging back to where we belong. We're not some pointless fucking club like Albion or Small Heath having their day in the sun.

That too.

Watch the ****** put our game on 1st and lining up will be Jenas and Murphy.

To be honest there are very few things (in the general scheme of every day life) I’d rather not do than watch MOTD when we’ve lost, especially when we’ve been smashed.

Don't worry. You will have a running commentary on how they spent so many minutes commenting on Spurs winning and how they would never have done the same if Villa had won. It is all a conspiracy.

Yes he’s fully responsible for us conceding.

Christ on a stick. The punditry on this evening's MotD is abysmal.

Might put that on then. Be rude not to.

[Brazilian Villain]

Spurs game on third, if they'd won it would be on first. Typical Spurs bias!

[VillaTim]

Quite predictable, they have covered up as best they could that Spursy debacle . Focused on an already doomed Burnley then a stalemate in luton . Wankers . The BBC hierarchy must be absolutely gutted with that Spursy result today.

As much as I obviously want us to achieve champs league on our own merit it's almost as satisfying knowing that if we do it means that 3 of the scum 6 splitters are out of it. 2 of them not even close.
