It seems I'm the only one here who likes Tim sherwood.

Poor tactician but good motivator. If he learns a little tactics he could keep villa up

tbh motivation was exactly what a club like Villa needed, it's been very flat for a while now. Tactics can wait for later.

And can somebody explain to me how Roberto Martinez is escaping criticism? Everton are 3pts off from the relegation zone, and nobody seems to care, or be making a big deal out of it.

Am i missing something?

But but but, they pass the ball around and don't play long ball or park the bus

Delph on the pitch invasion. "My armband got nicked, someone got my left boot, but I could appreciate the relief the fans are feeling after a result like that," he told BBC Sport.

Aye but if the bubble bursts quicker than expected, then Villa are gonna have big problems.

Guess that's the advantage when you're not a big name (or newsworthy) and have a good rapport with the journalists.

Woah. Top 4 teams of the Championship level on points, 66.

And Boro !!!

[Special Juan 27,424]

Championship is mental right now. Bournemouth smashed Fulham on Friday and then Boro lost at Forest and Derby blowing a lead against Birmingham

Nout in it now, anyone of four or five can go up automatically.

The Championship run in will be more entertaining than the Premier League.

Hoping Boro pull it off, they're all very inconsistent though, dropping points left right and centre. No one wants it.

Boro still have to play 4 of the top 6 or 7 though I think they have the toughest run in.

[Special Juan 27,424]

Boro's next three games

Ipswich (H)

Derby (A)

Bournemouth (A)

Looking at it Derbys are just as hard:

Norwich (A)

Boro (H)

Wolves (A)

Watford (H)

Boro's away performances lately have been awful, if they fail to go up it will be because of that. They are strong at home but brutal away.

[Special Juan 27,424]

Really looking forward to watching United tale on Arsenal tonight.

I also think Arsenal will beat them.
