The Fun Factory Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Wouldn't it be nice if one day Villa just steamrolled the opposition at home, a la Sunderland 6-1 about 3 years ago? I have almost forgotten how that feels. All the (very rare) home wins in recent years have been behind the sofa bite your nails type. I have given up predicting now. I just want a committed performance and a united home support. When that happens, Villa Park is a special place. Sod Lerner. Sod Hollis. Sod Fox. Support the team. At least for 90 minutes.

Have Liverpool, Stoke, Man City, Spurs, Chelsea, Man Utd, Southampton and Arsenal all cancelled their fixtures against us??? If they have then that's great news, if they haven't were **** \well \ithink we are gone, but haven't they got to play all our rivals too ?

Listen, I've not given up hope even though I acknowledge the chances of us turning it around are very very slim. I do recognise that we have A chance. But in no way, no way whatsoever, regardless of what happens on Saturday, will we have a "great chance" of staying up. Agree. But I think it is fair to say LOSE this and we are really really done.

dudevillaisnice Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Naismith will score. Probably from a defensive mistake, we usually put it on a plate for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferguson1 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 As per earlier post, think we are capable of winning today and am optimistic. Still not sure about our chances of staying up though even if we win today. Hope for the same back four as last week but do worry about where the goals are going to come from? 1-0 to the villa though. C'mon the lads - belief!

But first we've got to beat Norwich. We won't beat Norwich and won't be able to close a 7 point gap with Gabby up front. Our relegation was confirmed when the January window ended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, unbelievable turd. Somehow I think we'll win today, even if we have no-one to score the winner. I know this happens to me every Saturday morning, but I still think so. Really. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I don't care who or how we score, just get a goal and cling on for the clean sheet!!! I can see Norwich totally parking the bus today and being completely negative. They know by not losing would retain that 10 point gap and effectively end our participation in the relegation battle, leaving only two remaining spots to contend over. Heart says 1-0 Villa, head says 0-0 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heart says 1-0 Villa, head says 0-0 Agree with you here but wouldn't it be nice to be at least two up against someone? Those were the days! Even though it's been awful this season, you still can't beat the buzz of a match day. Walking up to villa park is still a great feeling. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither has Gabby...awful partnership! I doubt we will win another game this season so I really can't see anything other than a Norwich win today. My only hope is that Hollis has implemented his CI project to sort out the mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grasshopper Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 This is it Last chance Texaco Last straw to hold on to I can see the 11 being nervous during the first 10mins, hopefully we wont concede, but I think they'll be it everything they've got. Bunn Richards Okore Lescott Aly Gana Lyden Vertout Bacuna Gil Gaby/Sinclair/Sellars PS Gaby/Sinclair/Sellars is pretty depressing Clean sheet a must Goal/s coming from Set-piece or a screamer from Gil/Bacuna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 well last time my 4-2 villa against 7 men west ham prediction backfired... so 12-3 Norwich. A wandering rabbit to accidentally score a hat trick for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
