Didnt know that, you learn something new every day    . I have never heard a Villa fan mention it before 

[beechyboy90]

They do seem to be matching blues from last season
very safe
safe
sort of safe
oh dear
The biggest obstacle is that 2 or 3 teams need to get above them , qpr could do it and if blackburn beat them then maybe .
I took them at 25-1 to drop so I would be quite happy .

if you could drop 1 wolves or villa
me ., id take villa this year imagine their faces 

can i only hope so

Really?? They won the European Cup? They must be a big club.

[dont ask me to choose luv]

yeah but they were never known as 'world beaters' like that other rudderless big club

Is this really how they argue?

that, my friend has had me in stiches, talk about irony   

[WBASPE77]

They lose to Wigan then they really are in a dog fight. Its Robbie Keanes last game for Villa too.

[WSBaggie]

That's a good point you know. Damn I've got a sore neck always having to look upwards at the two greatest clubs to ever grace European competition.

Oh wait... they are below us in the table.

[tuamigos]

Sick of hearing the plebs phoning Beacon alst night saying 'we should be higher up the league than this Tom we are Villa' and those famous words 'we're too good to go down Tom'.#
As they say, the league table doesn't lie at this stage of the season.

[WBASPE77]

Villa have just that bit extra to stay up, but you take Bent and Given out of that team and it really is a poor side.

[jonny]

How long is Bent out for?

[Moggas barmy army]

How long is Bent out for?

Scan on monday apparantly but my guess is a long time oh dear 

[WBASPE77]

Good news for us the, Bent hasnt done a great deal in recent weeks anyway.

[reiss]

Good news for us the, Bent hasnt done a great deal in recent weeks anyway.

 dont think he is that good anyway

[WBASPE77]

On his day he is a top player, his goalscoring recond speaks volumes.

[Quakes Fan]

It's starting to seem like divine punishment for the sin of hubris, and if God wants you relegated....

[BaggieJames114]

They wont go down, but oh my if they did. Would be an incredible day. Last years was class with Blues going down

[smosher34]

got a bet with a lad at work on who scores the most league goals Bent or Pete man its looking better now  never rated bent and to lose downing and young cant help him ow well he came for the money !

[BaggieBirdRus]

I'm sure the Villa fans aren't too worried, i mean they do have Heskey...

[Roger Dodger]

They wont go down, but oh my if they did. Would be an incredible day. Last years was class with Blues going down

Don't forget that the Blues going down kept the Dingles up.

[leeiswba]

Don't forget that the Blues going down kept the Dingles up.

And dont forget if that didnt happen 12/2/2012 wouldnt have happened

[dont ask me to choose luv]

As KK said "I would love it, I would really love it" if the villa went down, doubt it'll happen sadly  but if it did.. my god that would be the icing on one very large cake.

I know a few half decent villa lads but with many of them, theres a underlying arrogance & they've always looked down on us & blues for that matter, so if there is a God & they did go down, I would celebrate like I did when we beat them last/& this season right in the heart of their manor  Carlsberg don't do relegation battles.....  

[BaggieJames114]

Live in Brum so dont come across many Dingles, whereas Bluenoses and Villa fans are everywhere. Hate them both way more than Wolves

[Baggies]

Villa going down would be great to squash their fans egos a bit and it would be nice for this current generation of Villa fans to experience what their midlands rivals have all experienced in the last 20 years. No Villa fan under 30 has any true experience of lower league football - it would do them good  . They would probably come straight back up with their abundance of quality young players but it would be a year outside the top flight and it's about time some of the other local clubs had the upper hand.
