Jareth Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 If we keep winning like some non stop terminator slowly but surely climbing the table then Fulham and Wednesday are gonna get nervous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LancsVillan Posted April 2, 2017 Moderator Share Posted April 2, 2017 Seriously we should all forget about it until the last couple of games, IF it happens then c'est la vie. For me there are simply too many clubs above us for all the ducks to fall into the same row. That run post Xmas has proven so so costly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obanken Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Us Villa-fans are really starved for success aren't we? People clinging on to the faintest hope there is. I guess the realists are staying away from this thread, but visiting fans from other clubs must think that all of us belive its possible. I understand that we are on a great run, but to win all of our last matches isn't going to happen. We have scored 12 goals away from home this season for crying out loud. Just looked...we only have 3 more away matches....we are going up aren't we?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I'm worried that some of our lot are getting there hopes up too much and when we don't make the play offs everything is shit again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Can you imagine if we go in to the Blackburn game with a chance of it still happening? 7-8000 of us there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Platt Posted April 2, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted April 2, 2017 3 away games are interesting as we will take 6k to Fulham and just heard we will have 8k at Blackburn. The other is Burton who are fighting to stay up. Winnable games you would say. Home we are pretty good. Its achievable but a long shot. Personally I don't think it will happen but while it's possible let's go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yer needn't worry, the moment we next lose a game then this will all be over and we'll all be glad for the run we have just had. But as it stands, we are literally on course for something special. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Just keep winning and see where we end up which will most likely we around where we are now. Then take that winning streak in to next season and piss on the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 If it became a deficit of 7 points with 6 games to go i might develop anxiety and turrets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel we are showing signs of recovery, have hit the bottom and are now working our way forward slowly but surely. We are also building a togetherness and resilience which is something we haven't had for a long time. I'm actually excited for next season (and still interested to see where we finish for this) We are getting stronger. This makes me proud. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villarocker Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 There is an extremely bad worse case scenario to our run-in. We win 6 games and fail by two points to make the play offs. The 2 points dropped being a draw with SHA. Now that would hurt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 We have 54 points. IF we beat QPR (likely), Burton Albion (probable), Reading at home (very difficult), then we will be on 63 points. Fulham have 64 points and play Derby (draw), Ipswich (win), Norwich (draw) which would leave them on 69 points. We then play each other... and if we were somehow to win that game, we'd be 3 points behind with 3 games left to play. Of course, this is still assuming that we win the next 4 games in a row... which overall is very unlikely. I'd give us a 100/1 chance of making the playoffs.

TrentVilla Posted April 3, 2017 Moderator Share Posted April 3, 2017 Even if we win every game we could still fall short so it's extremely unlikely. We just need to focus on our own fixtures and results and see where it takes us. If nothing else it should give us confidence and momentum for next season, it is also likely to help when it comes to retaining and attracting players in the summer. So one game at a time starting tomorrow with sending Holloway back down south with his tail between his legs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Sheffield will beat Rotherham, so really need Fulham to draw/lose against Derby away. and obviously Villa to beat QPR. one step at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
