sne Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I think we'll miss the play off by at least 15 points, probably closer to 20-25. I've seen nothing from this team suggesting we'll go on a run, not a positive one anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we win 13 games in a row and qualify for the play off's then nothing will stop us going up. So all we need to do is to win our next 13 games.

My guess is 7 or 8 this is Villa. they like to get your hopes and dash them we will probably go on a winning streak to take us to play-offs and then last minute of the season we concede a terrible penalty to deny us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you are delusional.....but maybe there are aspects of their application that is questionable and perhaps is not commensurate with their past reputations. That may take time to fix.

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Just 12 more to go. We win when we want. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyp Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 That Brentford -Newcastle period finished the season for us. We can finish on 78 points if we win EVERY game ( nigh on impossible) Wednesday would want to have the mother and father of all collapses for us to catch them..then there's Fulham etc..

NottingVilla Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 (edited) Is the point total for the top 6 unusually high this season or is it just me? We could win all our games and still not get enough points it would seem? Edited February 28, 2017 by NottingVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 We need to win 4 more games than Wednesday + beat them at Villa Park if we want to overtake them. With 12 games to go, the odds of that happening are very low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyrusr Posted March 1, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted March 1, 2017 Similar to the Relegation one I just did: 6th Place for the last 10 years: 2015-6 – 74 points 2014-5 – 78 points 2013-4 – 72 points 2012-3 – 68 points 2011-2 – 75 points 2010-1 – 75 points 2009-10 – 70 points 2008-9 – 74 points 2007-8 – 70 points 2006-7 – 75 points Average: 73.1 points Realistically we would need to get 31/32 points out of 12 games – meaning we would need to win 10/11 games out of 12 and require a couple of the play-off teams to drop badly in form. The lowest points to reach the play offs since we were last here was that 68 points. That would still mean 26 points and us winning 8 games out of 12 (winning 7 games means we would need to draw the other 5 to get to 68 points) and that’s the lowest points total to reach the play-offs. We are not reaching the play offs this year. Let’s focus on getting use to the league, building some good form, tidy up the team and get ready to hit the ground running next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 The way I look at this. It's the away form that's badly cost us as well as that flop manager we had before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted March 1, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted March 1, 2017 Doesnt really matter does it? The fundamentals to the Villa side remain the same whatever the goal, win as many games as possible. What ever that brings will only be good for us! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
