I'll be waiting for them, starting drinking at 10am.
We need to get right into their heeds, get them off their game, they're a bunch of bottle jobs when they come up against it. They're the equivalent of posh public schoolboys coming up to face the approved school, highly paid hairdressers Vs the lowest paid team in the league with short backs and sides. Chelsea boys wax each others legs before a game while our lads don't even bother wiping their arses.
If we get at them from the first minute the atmosphere will be intense, if Xhaka does a crunching tackle it will be nuclear.

You won’t find many posts so replete with maturity, rationale and conviction as that one.

You don’t want passion and excitement?
You’re right actually. Let’s not even bother going to the match and watch at home, that’ll get the lads up for the game

We'll be right up for this and I can see a similar scenario to when our unpleasant visitors turned up, unprepared for what is about to happen to them and unable to cope with the pressure from our players and fans combined, it will be immense and intense, almost gladiatorial, Xhaka will be Maximus Decimus Meridius, wiping posh boy blood from his boots and leading us into Europe......

Divvent gan. The lads deserve something special like the Coventry game. Time it right and it'll frighten the shite out of Knightsbridge lot. Our lads and the club deserve it.
Irrespective of Europe, the lads deserve it man.
Get there early. Stay late. Give them applause while their kids walk round the pitch with them at the end.
For the last 2 consecutive seasons, who has gone up has came back down and there was talk of the gulf being too big now. The game being broken. Etc.
We've came up and here we are on the last day of the season, in with a punchers chance of Europe qualification. Going toe to toe with Chelsea for it.
If you aren't going all out on Sunday I don't know at what point you ever will.

I don’t know what happened on the day of the Coventry semi final as I wasn’t there. Unfortunately I was on the MSC Ammonia helping to splice the mainbrace. Not that I will be a part of it. My plan is to just leave at 3 pm or thereabouts and park up at Tesco like I normally do. But I am in two minds.
One part of me is thinking we aren’t the first and we won’t be the last team to stay up. This is kind of what promoted teams are supposed to do. It’s just lately because of one thing and another it’s been virtually impossible for them to do it.
But on the other hand I’m thinking in a lot of ways this is more special and more significant than anything any other club can do. If Villa win 100 Europa League titles it will not be as big as what we’ve achieved over the last 8 years. Maybe Premier League survival in itself is not a big thing, but when you factor in the slow climb up from the depths of League One and everything we were and had to go through and the incredible hard graft that KLD, Regis and the team put in to ensuring this club could get as far away as possible from that existence and in a position where we could never go back, and at the same time put ourselves on a course to grow into something bigger and better and something resembling a Fulham or a Bournemouth is nothing short of superhuman. Hauling yourself up from the depths of despair and lower league football to the Premier League is something that is more valuable than any European cup.

Historically we are more on par with a team like Everton or Villa,
No disrespect to Bournemouth they have done very well in recent years but our ceiling should be far higher than clubs like that if we are looking to reach our potential.
