Bit of a long shot, but if 'arry can work a bit of magic with Brum, could
be a good day. Theyd be well adrift if Brum beat Villa. So here's hoping!

Villa are without their top scorer kodjia with 19 goals
Rudy Gested will be in place and with a few players on just 4 goals it's a long way behind their leading scorer who's serving his ban.
Harry Rednapp has all ready claimed he does not want paying if he doesn't keep Blues up my Villa supporting mate who has given it a miss and will be at the Turf today seems to think it will be blues day
Let's hope it's our claret one too UTC

Rudy's plying his trade at Boro.

Fingers crossed !
A clear M6 before and after the game would make the day perfect.

Need to worry about our own position not Blackburns, they'll be back crowing over us one day, let's not make it too soon.

Right now I don't really care about Rovers. One by one teams in the PL are making themselves more or less safe. Our next 2 games are very hard and we need to be getting at least 2 points in those, starting today.
I can't celebrate anything until we are safe, although I think we will stay up.

They certainly could! And it could be as soon as the end of this season if we don't bag another three points soon. We are being dragged back into it. A minimum of one point today is a must - an obvious statement I know.

Agree with summitclaret - it's still very possible that we'll both go down.

You're worrying again, Frank. We'll be fine.
Have a little faith and enjoy Rovers demise.

If we lose all five games, then we will go down.
That doesn't happen though with this lot, and I suspect the only way that will happen is if we get horrendous injuries, terrible referring decisions and all our opponents having their games of the season.

Precisely.
So quit worrying. You'll get an ulcer.

I don't even think that's the case. I can't see Swansea getting six points from their last four games.

Schadenfreude is all good and well, if we stay up. Which I truly believe we will.

I think Hull will pick up 4-6 more points.
