We have to beat QPR at their place. It's all balancing on that.

 

That isn't going to happen. We need Villa and Wigan to not win their games, that's our best bet for me.

 

Well yeah, but we have no control over that. If we beat QPR, we'll stay up. No doubt we'll go there scared shitless of a relegated side.

Looking at how we reacted to relegation last time, we got so lucky. So many clubs disappear into oblivion but we bounced back straight away, making some great progress and having a great infrastructure. We have a transfer policy people are jealous of, we've added stability and our finances are improving. On the pitch we finished 5th last season, had a great run in Europe and have some fantastic individuals playing for us - it's amazing to think that Ben Arfa, Cabaye, Debuchy, Cisse, Santon etc are here. It's almost like the relegation didn't happen, as we effortlessly got back where we belong.

 

So to be in this great position 12 months ago and to see we're on the verge of throwing it all away is depressing. These coveted internationals - in demand from all over Europe - are being wasted here. Our stranglehold in France will disappear. All of this progress, all of these memories and banishing our demons....gone. My fear is that if we go down again, we won't be as lucky. I fear we'd be gone for a while.

 

Cheers, Alan

We need to be positive, close down collectively all over the pitch, then give the ball to this man.

We had to beat sunderland, we had to beat West Brom, we could have done without conceding 6 today.

 

Unfortunately the games (and the excuses) are running out.

 

I can't see us picking up more than a point or 2 now, I think we're relying on Wigan not winning any/many more games.  Or else we're gone.

Still think the odds are still fairly solidly on you staying up. That late Cisse goal the other week was absolutely crucial. All you need's one win, and I suspect you won't even need that. My money's on Wigan - I mean, they're playing pretty well, but 5 points with four to play is still a solid ask. Just look at things like the Figueroa injury. They probably need to get everything right from now on, whereas you only need to get it right once. And that's without coming to Villa.

 

I do fear that Villa will beat Sunderland though - said that all along, and Di Canio coming in hasn't changed my mind.

Still cannot believe we've managed to wipe out our sizeable goal difference advantage in one afternoon. We essentially lost a point today. Fucking disgusting state of affairs man.

We're not close to team that looks up for a fight to stay up.  We're worse now than when we went down last time.

 

Unless something drasticaly changes i.e. they sack pardew and throw a bucket load of cash at a quality manager - we're doomed. :(
