They’ve just convincingly beaten Real Madrid home and away, 5-1 on aggregate. Hardly a poor team
They were just shit today and almost certainly distracted by the second leg of their CL semi.

Oh well, Conference League slipping out of our grasp. An unlikely three wins out of the next four might help, but it's almost out of our hands now - we'll need B'mth, Fulham and Brentford to have bad run-ins, and Palarse to lose the FA Cup final.
Oh well, if we beat the Beheadies tomorrow it'll keep the hope flickering.

It certainly is on and will be far more so if we don't win tomorrow, but that still leaves 9 points to play for. It really could come down to the last match of the season.
Exciting, isn't it?

Once they get schooled in Paris surely he is toast. Much superior manager than him in the opposition dug out today
He has just signed a new deal

Instead, we’re in a mini league with Fulham, Bournemouth, and Brentford, which IMO is a fair reflection of the team we have. We are not a Villa or Chelsea or even a Forest with their favorable injury record and experienced squad.
By the way, all but one of the four sides gunning for eighth have dropped points to the bottom three, and the only one that hasn’t has the fewest points of the four albeit with a game in hand
We're better placed than we were before, with Fulham losing. It's still well within our own hands, apart from the unthinkable - Palace winning the Cup.
We can still finish 8th, as long as we do what's required.
When CV's clash . . . . You couldn't make . . . . . Oh

That's the spirit. I hope you're not going tomorrow!

Yes, punching above our weight of the 13th largest wages spend. Villa is no Emery miracle portrayed by one or two on nsc, they have vast accounts losses from the two billionaires pumping in silly money on players they can’t otherwise afford, no previous Villa manager had that.
I’ll be very surprised and pleasantly so if we make Europe. Since Webster’s season ended in the FAC tie, we simply let in far too many goals.

Quite, we are in pole position, it’s ours to lose. I have a feeling we might but until we do I’ll keep the faith.

Don't worry - my days of totting up loyalty points, paying to be a member of something before I'm allowed to buy anything from it and booking things in advance have long gone - if indeed they ever started.
And don't even get me started on spending money and having tickets on a bloody smart phone!

Surprised you've been able to connect to the Internet to be so relentlessly negative then.

Curious that both the Italian dipstick and the English dipstick before him had pretty much the same issue.

Quite - they’re probably better off just supporting another, bigger club really!

Indeed - like I said, we’re no Villa, so why are we surprised and even outraged we aren’t up there with them and the other UCL chasing sides?
