Would you take 17th if Villa win tonight?

I have been saying as such for the last two weeks but have been lambasted. If the score stays the same, we are in the mire and hoping for a Wigan collapse.

As I have stated many times, if we stay on 39 points WE WILL BE RELEGATED.

 

No we won't.

Sunderland have the same run in as we do. I don't see why they would get more points out of it than us.

Unless of course they beat us, then they would get more points than us. Problem with tonight is that it is now less likely that Villa will be fighting to avoid the drop on the last day, meaning Wigan will have a better chance of getting 9 points from the last 4 games.

True, we have to get that extra three points to make us safe. 39 points doesn't look enough to be honest.

If we had someone of his quality we would be v v good indeed.

 

Remember a thread about him where people were saying he was terrible.

 

Had his worst game of the season against us at Villa Park.

 

Probably clouded people's judgement.

The 'we are safe' brigade are evaporating into the night I see

 

Nope. I think we'll be fine. I think Newcastle might collapse though, and after the pasting they get from the fascist maybe the Sunderland players will give it up as well. Anyway Dalek, do what I did and bung a tenner on at 100 to 1 (or bung 50 quid on - 5 large would sweeten the pill of relegation)...

I couldn't take blood money.

Why are people assuming we are not going to get anymore points this season, yet Wigan are going to get 8 or more points from 12. It could happen but no point worrying about it until 5pm on Saturday. Villa could potentially need a result against Wigan, they could easily lose to Norwich and then Chelsea! Norwich have Man City away on the last game of the season on Newcastle have Arsenal at home. Can see West Ham with Nolan and Carroll gifting a Newcastle win this weekend. Really believe we will get something at Spurs.

Lukaku will end up superior to Benteke IMO, he is a superb striker with every attribute needed. Imagine Belgium in a few years time...

 

Imagine Belgium now. They're comfortably top of their WC group with the likes of Mignolet, van Buyten, Kompany, Vertonghen, Vermaelen, Dembele, Fellaini, Hazard, de Bruyne, Benteke, Mirallas and Lukaku in their side, amongst others. They're really on the up and could be a really genuine shout for the WC if their players stay fit and on form next summer.

We're just not as persistent as you. You've made your point many many times. You can come back and tell us all about it if we get relegated. Maybe you could use the time away to figure out your strategy for next season. So far we have had 17th place, yo-yo strategy, and definitely going down on 39 points.

 

You, MrX, Turkish, Glasgow Saint and Barry Sanchez have utterly ruined this board with your constant spamming to get a rise out of decent posters. Pretty pathetic to see what lengths you lot will do to to achieve this and the downright nastiness of the likes of Turkish and BS. Embarrassing to be a fellow Saints fan really.

I love the "we'll be lucky to get a point from our next three games" but then the "Wigan/Villa/Sunderland are BOUND to get 4/5/6 points". How the hell are they anymore likely to get points then us.

 

Brilliant! There's the sixth!

We must be in freefall after one defeat in seven :rolleyes:

 

Ive not looked but we must still be up there in the form table.

 

This is typical Villa though, attacking wise they are very good, which is why they only play that way, from a talent point of view also they have it, but they are young, lack experience and so are v mentally fragile. There season has been up and down, they will get a win out of the blue and look v good and then follow it up with x amounts of losses.

 

Still, if I were Wigan, Newcastle and even sunderland now I would be worried

Have you forgotten the 2004 Glenn Hoddle saga ?

Interesting how many on here thought Sunderland would win pre-match. I assume based on their recent resurgence, but its very short lived and prior to that they have been awful and generally less threatening than Villa.

 

We dont need to fear them at S o L, go for throat.
