I think survival is a real possibility, even if we don't get any more points. I believe Bolton's form and their game in hand will suit them well, and they will stay up, and Wigan will finish above us. This leaves Blackburn, who can't catch us unless something strange happens at spurs (1-0 at half time to spurs) and we ship loads of goals (Blackburn would be six points behind us if they lose to spurs). And QPR.................... Their huge defeat at Chelsea and their dreadful form, added to two difficult games (they have to play Stoke at home, and then City at the Etihad in their last game of the season) probably mean that 3 points is the most they can expect, though anything can happen in the last game and often does in the EPL: think the hammers beating Man Utd at the theatre of screams to stay up.
It's still in our hands. If we can beat spurs at ours, then we're safe. If..............
So who do we want to manage the club next? Almost everyone is agreed this can't go on.
Who do you want?

With Lerners knowledge of English football...he'll probably sign Kean

Lets face it, Lerner couldn't get a more useless manager than McLoser. Unless he went all out for Ian Dowie !

It still stupefies me he was chosen, and paid so much. He's really done well cutting costs by doing ..... what exactly?

I applied for the job six years ago but they gave it to some clown called Martin O'Neill - anyway, my CV is on file and if your reading Randy I would quite happily do the job for £100k a year - go on Randy, you know you want to give me the job

And I will happily employ anyone from JA606 in my backroom team

Martinez looks likely to leave Wigan in the summer, would be a good choice for villa but he may get a bigger offer.
As for lambert again would be a good choice but will he see it as a sideways step.

Quite a few good managers around who might take the job. Any of them would be worth a go. I'd go for Curbs; proven ability and experience in the PL, may come across as quiet but he's ambitious. I think he'd make a lot of what Villa have to offer. But wouldn't be unhappy if Martinez or one of the others got it.
