Spoony Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 12th. And we should be happy with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adw95 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 (edited) For your own sake on this board, yes you should shut up now. However, for the sake of this board, you shouldn't. At least I want to see what happens when you start that discussion. Think I might be safer leaving it, as a long time viewer of VT I realise the general (almost entire) consensus is that people dislike/hate him, people that are of another opinion just don't seem to say so. But this isn't an MON thread so either way this isn't the place... Edited August 3, 2013 by adw95 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 12th. And we should be happy with that. Really? 12th would be pretty ordinary. Not bad by any means but nothing to be particularly pleased about. I'm hoping for top half. I'll say 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villarocker Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Bet365 are offering 14/1 on Villa to finish best of the rest outside of the top 6 clubs. They are paying 1/4 odds on 3 places, which meanswe can potentially finish 9th and you'd get a return of £45 for a £20 (10 each way) bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amo69 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 (edited) I wouldn't take them odds. The 7-1 to be relegated probably better value. Edited August 3, 2013 by Amo69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this isn't an M'ON thread so either way this isn't the place... You're right, this isn't the MON thread but I still love the guy to bits. I might be his No.1 Fan. I'll just say that we will fair better than last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob182 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I pretty sure the majority of Villa fans were a big fan of O'Neill, until he walked out a few days before the season started. But whilst he was manager, people backed him, despite his occasionally questionable transfer record and supposed lack of 'Plan B' when it came to tactics. Personally.. Lambert >>> O'Neill The facts, figures and trophies probably don't agree. But in the long term, I think Lambert will definitely better O'Neill. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrackpotForeigner Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I wouldn't take them odds. The 7-1 to be relegated probably better value. I'll give you 15:1 mister pessimist pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danceoftheshamen Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I had us down for around 15th minus Benteke as things stood but will now revise that upwards by 4 places with Benteke staying & another 2 places as the new players are impressing me thus far....So 9th... If they get off to a good start by picking up 3 or 4 points from our first 3 games then i'll go for 6th - 8th .. Dodgy start & i'll say 9th... disastrous start and maybe 10th to 13th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes 14/1 isn't great odds for 7th spot. But I think we can definitely finish top 9 so I will put a tenner ew on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 The Guardian's predicted position for us is 10th. That's the average ranking of their writers' tips. Personally I'd be very happy with that.

Cliffy Biro Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 9-12th is realistic and i for one would love to finish there, would represent real progress, talk of top8 and especially top 6 is pretty ridiculous to me, people must have short memories.
