Arghhhhhh. I agree. But I also tend to think of the point we got when for the first time in its existence hawkeye missed a ball crossing the line by about a foot. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilko154 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 If's and But's A huge week ahead for the club. A point gives us a chance on the last day of the season, 3 points put's us in the driving seat. Watford to lose to Man City Bournemouth to lose to Southampton Aston Villa to draw to Arsenal 17 - Watford - 34 points 18 - Aston Villa - 32 points 19 - Bournemouth - 31 points 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WakefieldVillan Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Pearson is rattled, that is a good sign. All a bit more clear now, not in our hands but it's literally 2 from 3. We're 1/7, Bournemouth 1/4 & Watford 5/4 but one result can change it all. I'm not even thinking about GD (IE city banging 4 or 5 past Watford, just please God make sure they win. That's the main thing). Hoping Ings and the saints are firing on all cylinders Sunday Key Dates; Sunday 19th - Bournemouth vs Soton 2pm Tuesday 21st - Watford vs Man City & Villa vs Arsenal 8.15pm Sunday 26th - Everton vs Bournemouth, West Ham vs Villa, Arsenal vs Watford 4pm 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) Imagine if villa and Bournemouth win and all 3 sit on 34 pts before the last game... Terrifying yet epic as hell. Edited July 17, 2020 by villalad21 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even those of us with some degree of hope still have plenty of doubt. No matter how the season ends, you’d need help from the boys in white coats not to doubt this lot! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, however I always feel uncomfortable being a doubter of any team I follow. I would much rather look silly (though not really as you say) than be right. I'm just begging for this team to make me regret all my negative thoughts but alas they are far better at confirming them!

VillaChris Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) Decent chance we could stay up with 4 more points. Needs Watford to lose their last two and Bournemouth to win one, lose one. Still very possible and we'll know more before we kick off before Arsenal as Bournemouth and Watford play before us. We can't complain if it goes to the last day as most of us would've signed up for that weeks ago. That will happen if Watford lose to Man. City although we'd have to beat West Ham by a couple which would like be beyond us. Edited July 17, 2020 by VillaChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the one time technology inexplicably benefited us. For sure - but it gave us a point - I mean the Man U non-penalty was gutting but we'd have lost that anyway. Plenty of other VAR grief though in fairness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
