Any repentance from the miserable bastards?

Apologies for this comment. I hadn't slept since Sunday night and I was mainlining merlot throughout the match. Miserable gits are A-OK by me!

Are you making these comments outside your front gate, in a wooly cardigan, with a very sad looking Mrs Sexual Ealing stood next to you?

Mrs Sexual Ealing is away, and has been replaced by my reprobate mate from Bradford, who is responsible for the lack of sleep the previous night. I am sorely lacking the moral guidance and disapproving facial gestures of Mrs Sexual Ealing.

Not only is our destiny now in our own hands to stay up, but I just noticed that the Noses are in a precarious position and could possibly go down.

Oh the double joy if both came to pass.

Wigan points deduction will save them.

Maybe, but I honestly don’t care about any one else at the moment, just want us to stay up!

It’s really easy to get frustrated with the wave of negativity sometimes but I can fully understand why it happens. It’s never been something that I like to do even when things are bad.
Takes all sorts though!
We all have a desire to get us over the line though and Dean and the team have managed to put us in with a shot of survival.

Wigan points deduction will save them.

I'm not so sure. Has there ever been a posthumous points deduction before? I think it'll be from the start of next season.

The rags themselves had points deducted ‘in flight’

I thought the rule with Wigan was to ensure it had an impact, I.e. will apply this season if it relegates them but next year if it doesn't.

Which makes the Blues points deduction last year even more ridiculous. Wigan have appealed. Also Sheff Wed and Derby awaiting punishments for selling stadium to owners. How they've got to the last day without deciding, with a three month gap in the season, is ludicrous.

A para. from the BBC

"Of course, much depends on Wigan's appeal against a 12-point deduction for going into administration. That sanction will be applied after their game at the DW Stadium, so they go into their home match against Fulham unofficially occupying the final relegation place."

Really chuffed for DS with last nights result, I still think for a lot of this season he has been found wanting, but he's a decent guy, who also happens to be a fan. I still need convincing he's cut out for the PL, but you have to remember its a big step up from the championship to the PL, so maybe he will learn and improve if he's given a second season. As for Jack, of course we would all love to see him playing in a successful Villa team, but we all know how this business works and the draw of the so called 'big' clubs and the money involved, so I still think there is a distinct possibility that he will go. Either way the result against Arsenal was huge, and a real positive step to securing our PL status, just need to finish the job on Sunday. UTV.

It's funny how it goes isn't it? Yesterday couldn't have gone much better for us, aside from scoring a couple more maybe, but now I'm bricking it about last day!
Amazing turnaround yesterday and it's not behind the realm of possibility that it could all go pear shape on Sunday. Watford draw we lose and .....
