I do? We're a fait accompli to it all, although I do think some players can be impacted at Villa Park positively or negatively by the level of support. Enough to influence a result? I doubt it.

Indeed, also being constantly optimistic and being a Villa fan is quite remarkable.

In the end, it's down to Man City. The first game maybe ever that I've genuinely hoped they win. Which of course means it's the one single fucking time you feel like they won't.

I'm not optimistic, I'm determined. Worry takes up a lot of time and energy that could be put to better use.

I’d really like us to put the issue to bed on Monday night. If we lose, and Spurs beat Man City (not inconceivable for a team in 5th and at home) we’re down to the wire on the last day of the season, away at one of the form teams of the Premier League right now while Spurs are at home to easily the worst team in the division. That would be a very uncomfortable situation to face.

Last home game of a wonderful season. We are finishing the job.

I think they’re away aren’t they? Three home games to end the season doesn’t sound right.

Yep, Spurs are away to Sheffield United. Not that it really matters, Sheff U are utterly dismal everywhere they play, home and away.

A reminder that before the Arsenal game we were level with Spurs and they had a game in hand. We've now put ourselves in a position where we're four points clear with no games in hand.

Now let's get it done.

Really want a convincing win for Arsenal at Man Utd as a contingency.
If Arsenal lost then Man City have less pressure to win on Tuesday.
I don't really see Spurs getting anything other than conceding 3+ goals to Man City.
Whatever the situation.

At the end of day it's in our hands though and there's hoping its going to be Title decider on last day not a Champions league 4th place decider!

I do think that was the most frustrating game of the season.

Would have been 16 home wins and top of the league !

Also, they have HRH Cameron Archer to call on.
