We've been really fortunate to have so many results go for us lately, it's helped minimise the impact of our, errrmmm, fallow spell.

Great result tonight, I'll take that, gladly.

Kinda hope Chelsea beat Ure next weekend. We're going for 3rd!

We get to Europa semi-final, get knocked out by Forest who go on to win it and get CL football while we suffer a lack of confidence and end up with conference league. We sell Rogers at the end of the season, can’t buy anyone to rebuild an aging team and slip out of European places the following season. Emery leaves and we get in Eddie Howe for 27/28 season, who is a busted flush by now and we finish 8th for the next 30 years.

The period from 1998-2019 had an effect on me. Doug still looms.

That was more or less John Gregory's interview pitch.

Am I right in thinking if  Chelsea lose to Manure and Brighton and we beat Sunderland and  Fulham we are guaranteed CL with 4 games to spare?

We don't just get Howe, we also bring in that orange cvnt Tindall, and they're pictured sitting on our bench, just like that one with Lambert and Keane looking like a pair of piss-soaked tramps.

Not quite, if Brentford, Everton, Brighton get 4-6 points in their next 2 games. We'd be in a very good position though.

If you'd have guaranteed 8th to Doug for 30 years he'd have ripped your hand off.

No, that's following Beheddie and Cuprinol man, when Dyche comes in with his Woan/Stone dream team.

I have flashbacks to the 80s.
Nothing to do with the mighty Villa, I just remember leg warmers, bandannas and mullets with spiral perms.
