For the first time I remember, we now have:

1) Fantastic and wealthy owners with business guile.
2) One of the top three managers in the league
3) The means to retain our star players (many poached over the years)
4) Increasing strength in depth
5) Great stadium and fan base
6) The fear factor (read other teams forums, even Notts Forest next Sunday)

It's only natural to expect us to win a lot more than we lose. We have replaced Manchester United in the pecking order.

Point number 6 made my balls tingle.

Can't wait to poach their players. Although there isn't one I'd take at the moment. Maybe Garnacho?

Bumping this. Never lose sight of the championship days and how we would kill to be where we are now. Ftf utv and vtid. And other cliches! Now let’s funeral Fulham! Up the fucking villa!!!!!!

Its such a great thread. We got very, very close to promotion as well when I posted it and we were miles off.

When we win one of the big three, this thread will be locked and preserved in the H&V hall of fame.

I've decided we're going top before 2023 is up and we'll see how we go from there.

I think we're going to win the league.

Do you genuinely think this? Cos I think we could go top over the next few weeks but even I don't think we'll win the league.

Who knows though, going top might cause an explosion of adrenaline that powers us through one game at a time.

If we go top by Xmas, Jenas might admit we're in the mix for a top half finish.

In my opinion our next three games are our most important league games in decades in the sense of what we could achieve.

Bournemouth A
MC H
Arsenal H

If we come away from those with two wins and a draw then I think it's time to get really excited. We haven't beaten MC in the league since 2013 when Weimann scored that winner. We are due one. I don't fear Arsenal, I think we'll beat those.

I don't think we will, but if we play as poorly against Arsenal and Oil CuntsMcCuntycunts as we did in that first half against Spurs, we'll be in big trouble.

Let's fucking smash the pair of them.

As an aside, I look forward to the massive gulf in class attitude-wise, win, lose or draw, in the post match manager interviews.

It's going to be interesting to see where we are after we get through these batch of games in December.

I'm really enjoying the ride at the moment and long may it continue.

Positivity still scares me & I think that as soon as I start to get really excited, I will jinx the fuck out of our season.

Emery is slowly reprogramming the way I think regarding the Villa, but I have been a fan for over 40 years, so that kind of experience means that its difficult to change the way one thinks overnight.

But by god, it feels great to be sat in 4th at the moment...

Great thread.

I could not be any more positive about the Villa right now.

Atmosphere on Saturday is going to be electric after that.
