JoeParker91 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 So Fulham are 4 points behind us? Yeah, effectively 5 with their awful goal difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Do you know what.. My Sky Sports app has updated everything bar the positions, it had Fulham as winning... I actually feel a little (little!) better! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From our point of view the bottom line is win against Hull City and we are safe. I have been dejected with Villa all season again but I'm going to Villa Park positive and getting behind the boys. Much like QPR last season this is a key game. The stewards enquiry can begin when (if) we are safe!

smetrov Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Problem with the Hull game is that it becomes as much about nerves as football - and we look shot in that respect. - 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaForever1970 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Lambert couldn't motivate a starving man to eat a cheeseburger If it were me i'd put Cowans in charge A club legend at the helm for one home "cup" game the atmosphere would be supercharged as all the fans would be behind him Lambert has lost the fans anyway and all i predict at our next home game if he's in charge is nerves and if we concede the atmosphere really could get nasty I hate this shit, put x legend in there put y legend in there. Sid has been training and coaching for 2 weeks and 2 games and it's still **** shit! Out of all the managers sacked because of relegation worry this season only ONE has actually prevented it, in Pulis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 A draw tomorrow would be perfect...

Being a legend doesn't mean you are a good manager or motivator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 We got really lucky with those two late Hull goals today, IMO similar to Spurs scoring twice from 2 down at Wigan last season which denied them two points and saved us. Even if we don't get a single more point this season, Fulham need to win their last two to finish above us (I don't see them winning at Stoke), Norwich need 4 points from Chelsea away and Arsenal at home. Given they were demolished by Man. United I really don't see that happening. We need a Sunderland win tomorrow. If they do then Cardiff need to win their last two to finish above us. Overall we should still stay up but this is through none of our own doing, more the ineptness of others. What a sorry state of affairs this football club is nowadays. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Sunderland have better fixtures. If they beat Cardiff you could see them beating Albion and Swansea which would mean they may finish above us. Sunderland v Cardiff the result we want is a draw or a Cardiff win - Cardiff with the tougher remaining fixtures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Sunderland and Cardiff draw surelt that would be better cause Cardiff would still need to win their 2 remaining games and it would also keep Sunderland down there? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Sunderland are going to finish above us tbh which is a shocking state of affairs. Their GD is the closest of those down by us and I can see them beating Cardiff, WBA who are safe now and getting at least a point v Swansea so 36 points and we'll be hammered at City and Spurs. Them winning means Cardiff would need to win Newcastle away and Chelsea home to finish above us, really can't see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villanwesty88 Posted April 26, 2014 Author Share Posted April 26, 2014 The goal difference is massively in our favour which is like a bonus point. We could well stay up on goal difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but if they draw it increases the chances that BOTH Cardiff and Sunderland finish below us which is exactly what we need 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amo69 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Yes I agree a draw tomorrow is the best result for us. Both teams dropping 2 points is better than either of them getting 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLord Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Not long got back (and still wet through) from Swansea. Tbh I haven't got the energy anymore to have an opinion on our club - too much needs doing, there is no quick fix and until the whole ethos of the Villa changes we're papering over the deep cracks that everyone is a part of 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabby Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Fulham have Palace last game , Place under Pulis who is good at set pieces against Fulham whose defending from set pieces is tragic..still I am hoping Stoke help us out before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I think we may well have the points to stay up by the skin of our teeth already and another point would give us safety. But strange things happen on the last day of the season and I really would not want to be going to Spurs looking for other teams to do the job for us that we were unable to do.

Kiwivillan Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 People think we're going to beat Hull? Really??? I mean I expect Hull to score 1 maybe 2 and not sure where our goals are coming from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
