blandy Posted June 9, 2005 Moderator Share Posted June 9, 2005 Good question. Probably a bit early to answer, but our history recently, plus additional factors, suggests around 10th-17th. No investment, no plans, no vision..... I might be jumping the gun, but I've thought and occasionally said, for a long time that the end of the Ellis era will mean a deal of turbulence for Villa. And turbulence means poor on the pitch performance. Bluntly Ellis has shown himself as totally incapable of taking any forward steps, it's all "catch up" Given thr current uncertainty - Langham going, Ellis in a hospital bed, and fecking useless anyway, I wouldn't expect any great steps forward, just a bit of regression -there's certainly no dynamism. But in the longer term there's hope, though only slim, of major improvement. S'pose it depends on how far you consider the negative affect of Ellis goes, how deep. Me, I think it goes very deep.

Wurzel Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 I can only go on the present squad so I think 10th is a fair result, below 12th would be poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiddybloke Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 given my opinion that we have very little money available compared what to everyone thinks (£6million) I'll go for 13th - 15th. Anything above is a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted June 10, 2005 Moderator Share Posted June 10, 2005 Sir, it is a tribute to your optimism that you waste 5 poll options on 5 unobtainable placings yet only give lip-service to the bottom half of the league I hope you are right, bad sadly you may not be !!

Richard Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Based on what we have currently and with no sign of positive improvement, 10th or lower for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardCanning Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I went for the giddy heights of 9th, still if we play fair we might get in Europe that way!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 If we invest (which we will, or so we're told) 7th. If we don't then it's 10th me thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimandson Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 2nd, DOL will be branded a god, noone will protest about Doug, Angel will hit 27 goals and be branded a hero, then decide he's leaving on a bosman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted June 11, 2005 Moderator Share Posted June 11, 2005 Given the current state of affairs, 10th or lower is the only option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuleAthon Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 8th for me. Seems about right if we are "slightly better" than this season just gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angel2005 Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 Well, the top 3 is out of the way. Next, the 4th will be contested by Everton, Liverpool and Newcastle. 7-8th is battle between Tottenham and Middlesboro. So the 9th is either us, Man City or Big-spending Wigan.
