John Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Rock bottom Villa face second placed Spurs on Sunday 13th March @ 16.00. Our visitors are hoping to be crowned champions at the end of this season for the first time since 1961 whilst we are 99.99% certain to be relegated from the top flight for the first time since 1987. We battled them for the fourth place they ended up with 6 years ago ending that season 6 points behind them in sixth place on 64 points which is 48 points more than we have to our name at the moment. We last beat Spurs at home in 2008 and have gathered 39 points less than them to date this season. Although this game is sandwiched between their two Europa Cup ties against Borrusia Dortmund their lofty position in the league and the chance to finish top for the first time in 55 years suggests they will be at least as up for this one as they will be for the other two. Another defeat looks more than likely. Another three or more goals conceded looks equally likely. The first goal will again be crucial and should we be the first to go a goal down we have grown accustomed to dropping our heads and going two behind shortly afterwards. This is a "must win" game for both teams but we do not win many "must win" games do we? I hope to see some fight from Villa at the very least next Sunday before I and I trust a few thousand more of us go out the door on 74 http://outthedooron74.co.uk/. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAuthority Posted March 6, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted March 6, 2016 In our last game against City we lost 4-0 and had 1 shot on target with 25% possession. So if we can build on that, I would be happy with us losing 3-0, getting 2 shots on target and around 30% possession. That would represent real progress in the right direction. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 There is no depth in this squad to replace the players who don't give a s***. Maybe hold a lucky seat prize of playing for Villa. Some random fan in the crowd will probably give more effort than the mugs we got on the pitch. Or, we could play the kids. Spurs 4 -1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillanousOne Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I can't believe anyone would bother turning up for this the players don't give a **** why should the fans? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted March 7, 2016 Moderator Share Posted March 7, 2016 I think with the terrible performances recently, #OutTheDoorOn74 has become as much a blessed relief for those fans as it has been a protest. I suspect the protestors will see 3 of the 4 goals we concede on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One For The Road Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 0-4 I n front of a 29,000 crowd. I won't be going and I shan't be watching either. When the club gave up so did I. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Villa Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 id like to see us scrape a point just so Leicester can stretch the gap. I think realistically we will just let Spurs pile up a decent goal difference 4-0 to Spurs and it could easily have been 7. Thanks God I've promised the missus I'll do some DIY on Sunday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I seriously think if Spuds are up for this it could be double figures. They might as well break the record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Keep Agbonlahor and Richards far away from VP and I'll be happier. We'll lose heavily as per usual of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelVilla Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 You are to negative. I think we will score one of them goals. Spurs will score more than one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) The only question really is when we concede the first goal and the weak, pathetic leeching parasites on the pitch decide they've had enough and open the floodgates. I'm going for the 27th minute. Edited March 7, 2016 by Mantis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSmirch Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 We haven't scored an own goal in a while, reckon Hutton or Richards will remedy that. 3-0 spurs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
