JimCohen gives us his reasons for being optimistic about the immediate future at Aston Villa.

At last, the season has a highlight.
It's sad of course that someone has to lose their job, but let's be clear, the decision to appoint big 'eck was a huge mistake. An enormous error of judgement that still completely astounds me.
After an entirely predictable season of dire football, unambitious, joyless incompetent drivel, at least the axe has fallen quickly and decisively.

The winner of the inaugural Patrick Ebbutt Trophy and VillaTalk.com Player of the Year is.....Stephen Ireland. Congratulations to Stephen. The same and more next year please, in what we all hope will be a much better season.
The background to the trophy is something close to us, and the story is this...

Aston Villa finish their 2011-12 season with a tricky trip to take on Norwich at Carrow Road on Sunday, but will know that their Premier League status is safe after picking up a point against Tottenham last weekend. Despite this, it has been a massively mediocre season for the Midlands club, one to forget even and Alex McLeish will look to give the travelling support something to cheer about before the summer break.

Heroic defending kept us up and effectively brings a close to a sad season that promised little and delivered even less. If this was the season of transition we were warned of I do not like what it has transformed us into!

My most recent article, written in the immediate aftermath of the horrible defeat to Bolton, seemed to capture the mood of a lot of people. At the time, we were staring down the barrel and it looked as though we were incapable of getting out of that trouble without the help of results elsewhere.

In my mind we're as good as down now. Of all the teams at risk of relegation, we seem to be the only ones who don't realise it yet. Or we're certainly playing that way.

Our grim defeat last night has secured an unwanted club record. We have had 4 home wins to date this season and even if we were to make it 5 by beating Spurs in our last home game it would still be the lowest number of home wins in any season in the history of our football club. We have a proud history and we were promised a bright future which did not include making history of this sort!

Bendtner appeared level when what might have proved a winner was ruled out for offside and we have Ireland to thank for a goal line clearance from the same player. But on the balance of pay we would have been unlucky to have got nothing from a game that we shaded. So we continue to get the points we need in singles as the gap between us and those below evaporates.

A second point over the Easter holiday weekend has seen us edge ever nearer safety. It would now be unexpected although not impossible for three of the four teams that languish below us to make up a 6 and in three of their cases a 7 point gap in the 6 games that remain particularly as our goal difference is worth the equivalent of another point on all of them.

Four minutes yesterday provided a memory of how games used to be at Villa Park. Fans who up to then were consigned to another defeat were roused by 2 quick goals but unfortunately that also provoked Chelsea to move up a gear and claim their win.

Our late, late winner took us out of the bottom six, increased an already healthy gap between us and the relegation places and made the gap between us and sixth the same as is the gap between us and 18th. Onwards and upwards then?

Life as a a Villa fan is never easy, as a club we swerve from side to side and upon reaching a crossroads and never know which way to turn.

Well I never; there’s hope you know! Hope, on a cold crisp evening warmed by the fires of youth and lit by the beautiful game; played beautifully by the boys in claret and blue.

Who would have ever thought it, but this week did we see an outbreak of love for our old chairman? Surely not...

So where is the next win at Villa Park coming from and when or will we get those 12 points we are still looking for to secure our safety?

Mark Hughes remains winless at Villa Park as a manager following a game that finished all square and during which we showed some fighting spirit although this result will also stretch our run of home games without a win to three long months.

Well what can I say, I have waited 12 years to see Robbie Keane in a Villa shirt and it was well worth the wait.

Everton with a makeshift defence were there for the taking. But this was another disappointing home performance save in main by a purple patch at the start of the second half that was brought to an abrupt end with an equalizer that came against the run of play but led to the anxiety of both team and crowd re-emerging.

A game that had started with us having great expectations ended with us in despair having seen our team change before our very eyes from Mr Hyde to Dr Jekyll within 48 hours without the aid of any potion.
