Are we live on the TV on Sunday?

We will be. Sky/BT have been waiting to show the games that matter most its the 2 clubs who could go down and perhaps Man U Leicester for the last CL place

Special mention for the twat of a commentator. Every couple of minutes it was an anti Villa stat of one sort.

Haven’t beaten Arsenal since...
Most points thrown away after leading
Number of goals conceded in the last five minutes.

I know it’s his job to build the match up but it did nothing for my nerves!

It’s still not over and Sunday will be a nightmare, but I have to pipe up because it’s something that I’ve seen on here and has  pissed me off no end in the last few weeks.

The team might still not be good enough to stay up. Dean Smith might still be tactically naive and have not made the right decisions at the right time. But anyone who has said this team don’t have bollocks, don’t work hard enough or don’t care enough is just fucking wrong. We’ve had enough piss takers in the last ten years. and this team are not that.  So anyone who has called the manager or any of the players cowards in the last month, then it’s about time you apologised.

This is correct.

Good to know Steve McLaren still does some work.

Dunno about anyone else, but I’m still buzzing off the back of that! UTV!!

[cdbearsfan]

Yep. Struggling to concentrate on anything else and can't sleep.

[Sexual Ealing]

It was brilliant. We fuck things up so often, just enjoy it.

[aldridgeboy]

Any Villa going to be in Ilfracombe or anywhere nearby Sunday, and if so where are we watching the game?

What a shit time to book first week away since lockdown

I’m going to be in Bournemouth!! Which could get awkward !

I’ve been skeptical that taking Konsa at 15m (?) Versus a cheaper option and buying malpauy was a smart plan but he was brilliant tonight. Ours to mess up. I do worry we could see villa and watford getting defeated and Bournemouth coming from nowhere to stay up

[robbo1874]

We have to beat West Ham

[Scamps180]

I thought we pressed higher up the pitch tonight, played further forward, glad for Dean as he has taken a lot of stick from some about not being good enough at this level, he's learning and will be a better manager next season wherever he is, well done to all of us villa

[ktvillan]

I've slagged Trezeguet as much as anyone (and to be honest he has been awful most of the season)  but fair play he seems to have found a use, and has developed a knack of being in the right place and tucking the shots away at the time we need it most.  Maybe there is a player in there somewhere after all. 

I'm another who couldn't watch tonight and Sunday is going to be worse.  Even a win doesn't necessarily keep us up although it should do.   I just wonder if West Ham will be more up for it than Arsenal or Everton.  In any case we've done bloody well to even have a shout on Sunday compared to where we were 3 games ago.
