I have no faith in today at all. 😆 I can't shake the feeling that this is what is going to happen. I fully expect Everton to be comfortably winning at half time. As others have said an early goal from us will send shock waves around Goodison, but an early goal for Everton and everything falls flat. I can't decided what would be more painful to experience - we win comfortably but so do Everton meaning the whole game just feels pointless, or we win and Everton score late on to keep them up. The only way to the nerves are settled today is if both us and Bournemouth are 3-0 at half time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJAV Posted 28 May 2023 Share Posted 28 May 2023 If there is anything in fate, when Deano kept us up it was against West Ham and on that day Bournemouth beat Everton (although Bournemouth went down) but it’s the same fixture. Stay up!!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really do love that Dean Smith. I guess Deano is revered by Villa fans in the way Pearson still is here! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the right man at the right time, but not long term. I wasn’t sure he was right for you - but we do love him for what he did, he just ran out of steam and did what we needed at the time, and even signed some of the better players we have now. Genuinely want you guys to stay up and not because of Dean, but because I like seeing you in the prem. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same. it's the not knowing (and the hope!) that kills us! I have a nagging feeling that Moyes will field a full strength WH team still to keep them on their toes and 'match fit' for their Europa Conference Final with it still being over a week away of course - and would sub consciously like to keep his old team up as a sidenote I'd say.....sadly.

Raj Posted 28 May 2023 Share Posted 28 May 2023 Dont think we can beat a full strength Wham team if they go all out looking to secure a starting place for tte Euro final. The more I think about it, the less optimistic I feel. I'm sorry....will start the drive to vicky park at 3 and the slow march to relegation...

adejo92 Posted 28 May 2023 Share Posted 28 May 2023 Reckon we'll play like prime Barca as its the last time we'll see most of them in a Leicester shirt. Vardy will get booked. Gray will score for Everton. Mongies clap 'the lads' off the pitch, thanking them for their efforts. Top will be there, smiling and clapping like we've just qualified for Europe. Bam. Thank fvck this sh1t is over and good riddance to almost every part of the playing & backroom staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoareyaaa Posted 28 May 2023 Share Posted 28 May 2023 (edited) at least if we do go down we got two of the most prestigious trophies in the cabinet in the modern era, the same can't be said for Everton, shit club hope Bournemouth destroy them.

Genuinely want you guys to stay up and not because of Dean, but because I like seeing you in the prem. I think that's very much the overall feel here towards Smith too, even though it may pan out to be much shorter term than his time in charge at Villa if the board don't see him as the long term answer after today - regardless of what league we'll be in next season. He comes across as a nice enough guy but I suppose a lot of us look at how he fared at Norwich after his swift appointment there and fear the same thing may happen here all over again (being unable to save them from relegation last season and then sacked mid way through this in the Championship), given time if he's retained for next season! I thought he was a bit harshly treated by Villa at the time and superseded by an inferior manager in Gerrard, even if a bigger name perhaps. Maybe he went in there at Norwich with Shakespeare too soon after the sack at Villa and could've done with some more time out but I suppose knew such opportunities don't come around very often and so just ent for it....whereas someone like Potter is having time out now after his unsavoury time at his former club. In hindsight he should never have left Brighton but on the flip side the Chelsea chance might not have come round for him again so you can understand why he jumped ship. Anyway regardless of all the above in the distant future then I just 'hope' we can do it today under Smith!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
