Already halfway to Benidorm
Is the brum accent the funniest when you hear them angry ?
Scoucers go up an octave
Maybe Devon ?

Villa are a good side, better than us in all departments.
That we’ve had no cup games and have still struggled to stay ahead of them is a bit worrying. We need to have a really strong end to the season to settle things down because missing out on CL after where we were in January is a real blow.
In some ways this actually feels worse than last season because it’s difficult to explain why we have become so bad. Last year it was obvious. I guess it’s the same explanation as always, our players simply lack heart.

Just thinking the same, looks like the wheels are coming off the caravan for them…
Not too worrying.
They finished above us last season, didn't lose a single key player and carried on their form under Emery.
We had a new manager, who had to coach a set of players who'd known one way previously, lost our best ever player and had an injury ravaged season.
The fact 4th is still in our hands is incredible tbh.
So if we dont get him and he goes to city you wont complain about missing out
NOTTINHAT Forest!
We'd be laughed out of town for this kinda thing!
I thought it was all swings and roundabouts, and evened itself up over the course of the season...?
That's what WE were always told... but apparently not!
Don't think we can complain if anyone chooses City over us.
Unless it came out that Eze wanted to come to Spurs and we simply weren't interested.
They were always going to beat Bournemouth at home. We fucked it dropping too many points in games we should have won.
Udogie now missing will hit us hard too.
Considering we somehow bagged 26 points from our first 10 games and had no European football or domestic trophy interest to distract us, losing out to Aston fucking Villa is absolutely appalling .
Bottling it doesn't even come close
Spot on. Thats where my biggest concern is, that we have had no cup games, the best start we've had since the 60s, beat them 4-0 to put ourselves in control, player for player i'd say we have the edge and yet they are going to finish above us. The way the season has developed we had 1 real goal, which was get 4th and we're not going to achieve it.
But if he doesnt suit us why would we. Hes very hot and cold
Most definitely suits us though.
I suppose my point is that we suffered through the injuries and international duty and got ourselves in a great position. It’s when we had everyone fit again and the pressure to secure top 4 kicked in, we crumbled and let a team playing on Thursday nights overtake us.
Reflects poorly on Ange and the players that they’ve wobbled so badly after working so hard to get up there. If we manage to finish 5th then yes it will be an acceptable improvement on the utter shambles of last season, but it will still be extremely disappointing. I’m sure Ange would agree.
I think they'll have to replay the game don't you?
Our players lack quality too
We've got a midtable forward line and that's being kind
