Here's to hoping we use it (not holding my breath on that one) to invest in a squad that should give us a good shot at going back up immediately. It's just so typical that we get relegated the same year a cushy new TV-deal is there for the taking. Goes perfectly in tandem with what I've come to expect from this club lately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubberman Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 My 10 yr old was talking about us going down - he's realised it's going to happen now. Still sticks with Villa despite all his mates being Arsenal or Chelsea. He was genuinely asking if we could still play at Villa Park which is so big, 'because all the places we'll be playing are like a muddy pitch with 4 rows of seats and holes everywhere'. Made me LOL and be sad at the same time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We worked and created the scenarios not exactly like we're expecting something from absolutely nothing.

Dante_Lockhart Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 If we'd have got that penalty against Spam when we were on top then maybe Ayew wouldn't have been as frustrated as he was and got sent off. Would have been a whole different game. Refereeing decisions are definitely a factor in our current position, especially as of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I absolutely despise the referees (except Michael Oliver, he cool) in the PL and the complacency of the FA regarding them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not having a dig at penguin, I was making the point that each year our survival is always by the skin of our teeth. Luck has kept us up for 4 seasons, now that luck has run out.

Jeff Stelling was, for some reason, shocked. The comments were quite heated too, even by youtube standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
