Well at least we know the roundabout in this thread is 40 pages big You are right that the turnaround hasn't been enough to pull us clear of trouble, but then that's not even nearly the point that's being made here. Everyone knows that once you are down there, it is very difficult to pull free. You need almost champions league chasing form to pull yourself totally clear of all other relegation threatened sides. Even Southampton, who went on a mad run a month back, could find themselves uncomfortable if we win tonight and Wigan (will) win their game in hand at home to Playa del Swansea. I'm getting to the point being made ... Firstly the actual facts. Our form has been midtable since the new year. That is unarguable because it is quantifiable and contained within the table in my linked post. And now to the point that is actually being made. If we were to start next season with the trend of results that has happened since the new year then next year we wouldn't be IN this season's trouble in the first place. In other words that form would be fine as it wouldn't be happening from a position of 17th. We'd probably have a Fulham-esque type season of mediocrity. This season you are right that it hasn't been enough, because of the hole we dug ourselves into early on. But when talking about how a squad is progressing you have to look not only at the subjective stuff that I see i.e. the players maturing. There is at least a correlation to reality and the results they're picking up. I know it's an inexact science. Wigan prove every year that the side that finishes the season is rarely the same Wigan that starts the next one. But then we go back to what we're trying to achieve here and how we're going about it. Wigan's problem is rarely experience and age. It's usually off-season pillaging. Which brings me back to my original point. If we can keep this group together and strengthen it in some of the weaker areas then we'll be more than fine IMHO.7 points

Crowd was unbelievable tonight and best atmosphere I can remember for years. Attendance was 37.5k of which Sunderland bought about 1.5k but it felt like there were 50k Villa fans there tonight. The whole ground was singing once we went 3-1 up and that continued till pretty much the end of the game. Great to see so many still in the ground at the end as well to give the lads a well deserved ovation. We really have had some fantastic support this season especially when it has been most needed and we do make a difference. QPR at home, Stoke away and tonight instantly spring to mind. Fantastic feeling tonight and great to see so many Villa fans leaving the ground grinning from ear to ear and singing. Its been a long time coming but we have earned it. Lets hope the feel good factor can continue and all being well we can hit the ground running in the Prem next season and really get some momentum going. This great club could really take off again with even a sniff of success.4 points

Well...seeing as this is relevant to me today. I've just 'liked' all of my Birthday messages. It just a little nod to know you appreciate the effort that, yes they've seen it's your Birthday and took a few seconds to acknowledge that. My mum still hasn't called me...4 points

I wouldn't touch Taarabt with a ten foot pole. We often seem to end with a really talented player who plays well five times a season and spends the rest of it being either a passenger or a liability and I'd rather dodge the bullet this time.4 points

Well my take is that these players would not struggle again next season. They were kids this season. The ability is there but the experience wasn't. We've seen them improve both subjectively and objectively over the course of the season and a few careful additions would see us easily midtable. Especially if you consider just how close it all is below 7th over the course of a season. I know not everyone agrees with me but ho hum, that's my view.3 points

I'd extend that to any 'Like' on Facebook. Oh wow, you like it... great stuff. Thanks for clicking a button instead of actually taking the time to write a message to me person I barely spoke to ten years ago in High School.2 points

If that's true (and I'm sure it isn't) it would be amazing if we were already safe. The sad bastards.2 points

I heard there are 4 bus loads of blues fans going up to the DW on the last game of the season. If true, this qualifies as their biggest away following of the season.2 points

OK I have given it serious consideration, and as much as I'd like to give a comical answer like I dunno Quina Quen from FF9 or the pink girl Sonic, I can't. As you know I take my gaming vr srs, so I must provide an honest answer. That answer is Aika from Skies of Arcadia. Oh that red headed minx. I might even knock the current one on the head, and find a red headed girly who will cosplay as Aika. Even just the pigtails would be fine, actually. My god I'm actually hard thinking about that.

Now I've read the thread... No no no no no.. NO! NO! I mean I've done some pretty messed up things in my time. I put pate on my cock once as a teen in an attempt to get the dog to give me a blow job (almost ended in disaster). Thank you for making me feel relatively normal. Having said that, sounds to me like she groomed you. Have you ever thought of it that way?2 points

Look at Ronaldo for example, he's 28 and I would say he is in his prime right now. According to monkeyfacts.org a chimpanzee reaches his potential between 15 and 28. Bale has just a few years left in him before being donated to a safari park2 points
