Stick with me on this. Besides, if all goes to plan, plucky little Bournemouth will still be relegated whilst we also parade the 11th place trophy around the streets and boulevards of Southampton. 1
Manuel Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Yeah, City to win by a few goals would keep it interesting...

striker Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Nigel is sitting home right now with a pint, laughing his ass off
bpsaint Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 If the Watford owners were hoping for a bounce by sacking Pearson they’ve made a big mistake!! Goal difference wipes out with 20 minutes and a match with Arsenal still to go. Villa could sneak this on the last day...
Baird of the land Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Watford’s cunning game plan of sitting on the edge of their box and letting city thread the needle leading to a predictable 4 nil defeat.
Jimmy_D Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Watford will only have themselves to blame if they somehow manage to get relegated.
Lord Duckhunter Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Why does that cockwomble on sky keep going on about Boscombe having scored more goals than Watford? It doesn’t make a blind bit of difference, Boscombe & Watford can’t finish level on points & goal difference. 1
whelk Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Baffling - I thought, and had been told, that it’s all about having something to play for. Staggeting how City beat Watford.

Baird of the land Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Cedric showing those awesome crossing skills saints fan know so well.
Jimmy_D Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Jeez. Villa outside the relegation zone as things stand.
striker Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Villa got the lead they needed. I don't see Watford winning ever again, so they control their destiny if they hang on

Teddeer Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Don't think Arsenal can be arsed in this match so if Villa win they'll only need a point at West Ham and Bmuff can't catch them. Would be angry at Gunners lack of effort if I was a Cherries fan.
Baird of the land Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Shame this slow lethargic arsenal didn’t turn up at st Mary’s.
Jimmy_D Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Even just the draw here could end up being good enough for Villa.
Jimmy_D Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 You know, the best thing about this game as Saints fans is knowing EXACTLY what the Villa fans will be feeling. This is turning out to be an amazing relegation battle.
OttawaSaint Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 (edited) Figured this would be fun to watch and relax, no stress but I’m really investing in Villa surviving. Getting nervous now, must be a reflex. Lol. edit: should be 2-0, really poor effort from Davis. Edited 21 July, 2020 by OttawaSaint
Jimmy_D Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Oh wow. I have no idea how this one is going to end up, Villa and Watford fans must be climbing the walls.

Jimmy_D Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 I'm getting flashbacks to the Swansea game here. Not exactly the same situation but jeez...
GarrettIvo Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Watching this game and am reminded what the hell happened to Calum Chambers. Then saw he has a knee injury. Six years at Arsenal and he's barely played a full season's worth of games. We did well there.
GarrettIvo Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Kinda hoping Villa stay up now. They'll still be awful next season anyway, which is useful for us.
OttawaSaint Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Thought Targett was unlucky there, he pretty much just stood his ground. Villa survived the free kick anyway though.

Jimmy_D Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Wow. Certainly didn't expect Villa to be the ones clear after tonight's games. It'd only take a 1-0 and a 2-0 on the final day for it to come down to goals scored!
Teddeer Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 There you go. Pathetic display from Arsenal. They couldn't muster a single shot on target against Villa. Says it all. Bmuff fans must be fuming.
Baird of the land Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Glad i’m Not a Watford after that disgraceful limp performance by arsenal which has probably relegated them.
Jimmy_D Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Looks like it's likely now that it'll be the GDS failure against Sheffield United that keeps Villa up.
S-Clarke Posted 21 July, 2020 Posted 21 July, 2020 Blimey, given themselves a big chance here! What a final day...! Weird shit can happen.....
