Amo69 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 We only need three teams below us. Norwich need four points against Chelsea and Arsenal. Fulham need six points against Stoke and Palace. Cardiff and Sunderland play other. At least one team won't take 3 points, and have to play against either Man Utd or Chelsea. And that's assuming we get absolutely nothing out of the remaining games. We'll be okay. No no, you've got it all wrong! Every team below us is going to finish perfectly! There has been a denial about how poor we have been for ages. These other clubs have a lot more fight than we do. But these other clubs are still shit. Norwich have picked up 3 points from 18. Sunderland 4 from 18. Cardiff 5 from 18 Fulham 7 from 18. I'm obviously biased but the fact a club of our size and with our history has to rely on those clubs you mentioned being worse than us is disgusting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Dodgyknees ive never denied how bad we are and going down is a possibility of course it is. What im saying is though that every team below is not suddenly become a great team and will take close to maximum points now. I agree. Problem is we have zero fight, they seem to have fight. Fight, but not talent. Fulham gave their all at home against a bad Hull side who couldn't really give a shit and still couldn't win. Now they have to pick up maximum points.

Voinjama Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 (edited) This is the 3rd season in a row Villa have been in a relegation scrap and in 2010/2011 although they were never really in it they flirted slightly. Not good enough. The new Coventry City, and we know what eventually happened to them. Edited April 26, 2014 by Voinjama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we don't have fight or talent so I know who stands a chance when the going gets tough. Yes they have some hard games, but I know for sure we would roll over and die, where-as others will at least try. (Apart from Norwich). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advantage we have is that we have the points on the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roonst83 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 It's funny how up until now Lambert has been looking up the table and stating how teams would love to be where we are...yet after today he says how "next week is a cup final". It's as if it has literally just dawned on him. He looks like he has given up, he's lost his main two assistants and his job is on the line - I now firmly believe he will be gone after Spurs.

Tubby Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 (edited) In an obscure way I'd feel better for a Sunderland win tomorrow. That will leave Cardiff needing to win both games which is possible as Newcastle are on awful form and Chelsea could field a weakened team. Max 36pts. If Sunderland win they'll get another 4 points easily I reckon. Expect 36pts. Fulham could win both but Palace are stubborn and anything but a win away to Stoke next weekend and that's them done vs. us. Expect 35pts Norwich are down, but if they did get 4 points they'd end up on 36pts. We need 1 more point for safety unless Fulham fail to win next week, Norwich lose and depending on tomorrow's result, Cardiff fail to win next week also. Final Table in my opinion: 16. Sunderland 36pts 17. Villa 35pts 18. Fulham 35pts 19. Cardiff 34pts 20. Norwich 32pts Staying up on goal difference. *Sigh!* Edited April 26, 2014 by Tubby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eames Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I don't believe we will go down. I so believe our best chance of points will come against City and Spurs since the "big" games are the only ones we've turned up to all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Spurs will be Sherwood's last game I think, City last home game. Both will want to go out on a high. Can't see us winning those two or even getting a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbr600rr Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 if this club goes down its not down to these last 3 games,its over the season & it starts from the 1st day back in preseason last year for me,the whole club stinks from the top down.i dont expect this team get another point this year. i dont have faith in the team or managment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Hopefully Sunderland and Cardiff draw tomorrow and then the bottom three just lose all their remaining matches. I've no Idea why but I've got a feeling we might beat Hull next weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
