You can't move for articles on us and our Manager, the latest is in the Guardian. It's in stark contrast to a few weeks ago but the bedwetter in me (and others by the looks of things) is worried that it will all go wrong and once again, this is the sort of thing that we need to shake off.

I am going to have to use the phrase happy clapper so we can even out the H and V ying and Yang now the phrase bedwetter has been used.

I think i preferred it when we were going unnoticed.

I do however find it amusing that i am now looking at the current top 5's fixtures to see where we could over take them.

Who would of thunk it

The thing about great runs is they always come to and end. ALWAYS. Brentford are in pretty poor form right now, and beating them would pretty much guarantee us finishing above them and in the top 8, so I hope the run doesn't end tomorrow.

They're the draw specialists, so could see a score draw.

Deleted as the conversation has moved on since I opened my browser this morning and don't want to drag it back to talking about stats - apologies!

Your .xP has just been affected badly by this.

Journalists going on about Villa are the new vegans. Won’t fucking shut up about us.

I have us down to lose away at Man U and Liverpool. But this is a banana skin potentially, but is really about time we ended our bad run there…another record to fall?

I must admit, I am starting to think that this can't go on forever and sooner or later, it feels inevitable that we're going to concede a goal.

All vegans welcome to the Villa! Just f-ing stay away from The Villa Chippy!

I reckon if we bag the two wins this week we'll be unstoppable and will go to Old Trafford and win as well, probably Anfield too.

We've had nothing but positive media coverage this week (I didn't watch the Tifo video on account of life being too short). I see this as the herald of the end of our good run, starting tomorrow.

This is the kind of analysis that makes sense to me (unironically, I absolutely agree this is what will happen).

H&V's very own 'Unlucky Alfs' you two.

Someone's foggin' gorra! Lee's got us winning the next four, Paulie's getting cocky about Villa defending (Villa!)...

It's like you've all forgotten how inscrutable are the gods, and how terrible is their wrath. You'll bring ruin on the city with this hubris.

I'll be amazed if they get near our box, too busy still trembling from the last time we spanked them. Retreating into their shell won't do them any good, we'll still batter them, completing a comprehensive double as a gentle warm-up to the next few 'proper' games.

4-0 last time, I expect the same again.

The way I feel about us at the moment is that by Tuesday night we will have the same GD as ManU such is my confidence.

I would quite like Ben Mee to provide a Traore assist for the winner tomorrow

I would quite like Ben Mee's head to fall off and I hope our fans give him an afternoon to remember.
