Another great win for us but even though we have got to 40 points I still don't feel safe especially with Wigan playing like they are!

Am I correct to say that we would have to lose our two remaining games and all the other teams below us to win all their games for us to be in trouble?

True, but Wigan have their sights on other teams like Newcastle, Sunderland and Norwich. We're not their main relegation rival any longer as others are in worse trouble than us now.

We were pretty awful today but who cares, we won!! I reckon we're almost there, think there's enough teams between us and wigan now, especially if sunderland don't win on Monday!

Well done, getting the points at the end of the season when they are crucial. Wish I could say the same about my team lol

Its all ifs and buts, thing will become clearer after Sunderlands game on Monday and Wigans game on Tuesday But as it is ,Wigan could get to 44 points , so has things stand Villa need more than 44 points to make sure , goal difference between Villa and Wigan is similar

If Wigan lose it all changes

Yeah I think things will be clearer after Sunderland and Wigan play this week!

I am concerned about our game against Chelsea though!

Swansea have beaten Wigan! If Arsenal beat Wigan next Tuesday, or we beat Chelsea on Saturday, we're safe!

Even if Wigan draw with Arsenal we are safe as if that happens the most they can get is 39 points!

We were doing really well until Benteke was sent off,,,i thought he had a really good game today.
Going forward we are a very exciting team,, unfortunately in our penalty box I see a lot of panic from our defense.
I'm still not sure about Delph, sometimes he looks ok, but most times he doesn't look good enough.

I really hope results go our way in the next few days, I don't fancy a relegation game against Wigan

At least Southampton equalized! Wouldn't mind wigan drawing at arsenal so it's between them and sunderland. Don't really care though, just want us to be safe. I can't cope with us still being in it next week!!

Yeah I feel the same as I just want us to be safe before we play Wigan as I'm really worried if it comes down to that last game!

Things really need to improve next season. I'm sick of us being in a relegation battle. :yawn:

Thanks

Staying out of trouble in mid table would be a change for the better for us next season

Thanks for your help!

Last 3 seasons, we've only survived on game 37. Mr Lambert, please make sure we're a little more comfortable next season!

I'm pleased that we are safe and I think Lambert if he is given backing is heading in the right direction but this season has been awful.

A season long relegation fight, losing 8-0 to Chelsea and even worse losing over two legs to a 4th division team in a cup semi final.

I expect mid table or better next season.

To be fair we could still finish mid table this season depending on how the results go on the last day.
