I can imagine it getting nervy if we are leading towards the end of the match.

It's fine, Liverpool won't have enough time to claw back the five goal deficit.

I remember not really feeling comfortable until the 7th went in a few years back.

I have a feeling we will do it today.
I didn't set this thread up in November to see dreams dashed!
So come now Villa players do as instructed finished the objective and give us our champions league!

I was munching on popcorn once the 4th went in.

Not the top 2 for me, and the 2 I assume you see are in posts about Spurs.

Have those two just had their press conferences? Hence the concentration on that for the moment?

"As a life long spurs fan I expect the players to give 110% to try and win the game for the integrity of the football club and the league, however I hope that we lose."

Don't see any issue here. We kick off in 5 hours, expect there will be coverage nearer then.

There's too much talk of spurs here as well.

Come 10. 20pm let us reconvene here.
Where all talk of spurs will be banished

I've been drip feeding my bets against us. When the winnings were under a thousand I definitely felt anxious which told me that wasn't enough. I topped it up a little bit more - £1250 still didn't shift my mood. I'm now at £1600 and it feels about right. I don't want the money and I'll be cock-a-hoop if we do Liverpool. But the nerves have largely gone. That's my price, it would seem.

The remote chance of winning a grand has done absolutely nothing for my nerves. I’m desperate to lose that money tonight or tomorrow. Preferably tonight.

My missus overheard me telling a mate about it. She’s started spending it already. My kids are going to be so disappointed if they don’t get their new garden swing.

As it went unnoticed on the villa Liverpool thread, and to add into the terminator vibes on our chances I don’t think Spurs will do it. Unless they become the Spurminator and Sunday is our Judgement Day.

I'm gearing forward to a thread that is hearing how you plan to celebrate Aston Villa's inclusion in the Champions League.
'How are you celebrating Villa Champions League qualification? '

Then this original thread can be left to discuss the Champions League draw, pot matches, and basically a celebration of everything about our beloved team's fourth-place finish and continuous discussion of what it takes to remain a Champions League club!

So would be looking Our chances of winning it or how far we go
The impact it will have on the Premier League campaign.
And also discuss the language of English, French, and German used in the Champions League anthem that will be played at Villa Park. The travel plans for the away games and experiences of places to stadiums that already experienced, whether there are Villa fans groups in the areas of Milan or Paris, and what matches wanting to go to.

Discussing the matches and pundits that will be screened on Amazon, and highlights are broadcast on the BBC.
And TNT Panel and their coverage.

It's all next-level thinking now!
