Alex Moss 2,165 Posted December 23, 2018 Credit where credits due. 1 point behind over Christmas is certainly not the end of the world, it’s like a boxing match! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fiery Zac 1,066 Posted December 23, 2018 Oh well. Gap to third is all that matters. Also don’t want to become the first team in forever not to get promotion when being top at Christmas. Let The Leeds bottlers have that hanging over them for the rest of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surfer 1,547 Posted December 23, 2018 So Norwich and Leeds are bad for English football? Leeds were terrific that second half, I'd be delighted if we both go up in the auto-promotion spots to play our brand of football in the PL next season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Making Plans 936 Posted December 23, 2018 So what we learnt. City & Leeds are the best two teams in the League by a mile and Villa are unlikely to get into the play offs 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Been in good form prior to this so why not, nobodies promoted at Christmas including us and Leeds. No hindsight at all. Ive said that all season. Theyre not very good and Dean Smith is a product of the Brentford system. Managers are much heralded there and do nothing after - see Warburton for prime example. He aint going to suddenly improve them to close a 14 point gap on us in half a season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,761 Posted December 23, 2018 (edited) Still think the shear number of goals WBA score means they will force their way into the top 2 ...3 into 2 won't go Edited December 23, 2018 by GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JF 694 Posted December 23, 2018 Maybe their fans will stop moaning about out late goals now! Only saw 30 minutes of it but what I saw Leeds look the real deal. Any two from the top three for the automatic spots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Automatics are between us, Leeds and WBA. I think it'll be us as Champions and WBA in a close run 2nd (might go right to the wire with that one). Leeds to miss out and f*** up the playoffs. Villa to finish 8th or 9th. Derby to win the playoffs. PS Think you mean 3 into 2 won't go.... Edited December 23, 2018 by kick it off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sonyc 5,525 Posted December 23, 2018 There are two teams who match each other well but the biggest difference is as fans. We give credit to the other teams, where due. Leeds fans, on the whole, tend to feel entitled to everything. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted December 23, 2018 They next seven leagues game are a bit harder than what we have had of recent. Forest, Derby, Sheff Utd, West Brow and Leeds plus Brentford and Brum If we just match then then we will stil be in the automatics 28 points needed off 23 games to make the play offs Bl00dy marvellous to be back having something to get stuck into roll on Boxing Day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duke63 542 Posted December 23, 2018 Good to see us and Leeds bringing through young players and them being a big part of what we are both doing. And succeeding. Villa have too many has-beens and never-beens in their side. Rumours too that Newcastle want to sign Abraham on a permanent deal in January which would leave Villa with nothing.
