Mantis Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 A part of me hopes we don't score "too early". If we do score then we have to score another because everyone will just get edgy otherwise. It's a pathetic state of affairs really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sidcow Posted September 9, 2016 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2016 On my desk at work I have a football head trinket. Top of the head is a football and half of one side is a crazy human face caricature huge smiley grin and the other a crazy human face caricature sobbing. Historically I used to have him smiling when we won and crying when we lost. For the last year he has been sat crying upside down in my mini foot shaped Fuengirola ash tray where I placed him in exasperation last year. All I want to do is to go into work on Monday and turn him upright and smiling. I was on holiday when we beat Rotherham and as we drew before I came back I couldn't change him as custom dictates a draw = leave him in current position. Please Villa, it's not a lot to ask is it. You've spent £50m, I just want to turn a small figurine around. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 So the Forest news currently is that Assombalonga and Bendtner both will probably not be playing. Also someone called Connor out injured. I think this is good news. Hoping we can play our strongest team without injuries or fitness issues.

One For The Road Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Looking at 35k or so according to the ticket office. That's 35k on a Sunday, for a televised game in the Championship. Our lesser rivals may call us historians and say we aren't a big club any more, but that sort of gate shows what a massive club we still are. Our local rivals wouldn't get gates like that in the Prem, never mind the 2nd tier. Looking forward to going to this one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supermon Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 We are already 11 points off the top and one point above relegation. Simply a must win game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_Simon Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 There are 123 points left to play for, this is not even close to a must win game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchard Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Every game is a must win game. Fully expect another loss - with such an error prone goalkeeper I find it hard to believe anything else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't keep kicking the can down the road. Results have been very poor, simply not good enough, we have to turn a corner and it has to happen soon, so tomorrow would be a better time to start than any other.

I'm not saying we can lose the next ten and then assume we'll win the rest. But to state a game in September is "must win" is ridiculous and adds excessive pressure to an already pressured situation.
