Survey – What Are Your Expectations For Aston Villa In 2010/2011?
Written by Dan on July 13, 2010
2010/11 will be Martin O’Neill’s 5th season in charge of Aston Villa and before a major player has been bought or sold and before a single ball has been kicked, I want to find out what you expect the club to deliver next term.
I’m not looking for your predictions, I’ll leave such things in the capable hands flippers tentacles of sea creatures, I want to know what your expectations are. Is it all about the league for you? Do you expect Villa to finally crash the top four and qualify for Champions League? Will nothing less than Europe’s top tier satisfy your football thirst or would you be happy with another shot at the Europa League?
How about silverware, would you expect to see the boys climbing the Wembley stairs to collect a trophy next season? Would another trip to Wembley be good enough, or would you rather focus elsewhere?
How about Europe? Do you even care, or would it take a run to the final in Dublin next May to keep you satisfied?
I’d really appreciate it if you could answer the simple survey below in an honest and realistic way and also use the grid at the bottom to indicate the priorities you hold the various competitions. I’m guessing we all regard the Premier League as number 1, the rest is very difficult without it, but how do the domestic cups and Europe compare?
To help you out, here’s a quick summary of the last four seasons:-
Season | League Pos | Points | Pts per Game | FA Cup | League Cup | UEFA Cup | Total Games Played |
2006/07 | 11 | 50 | 1.32 | R3 | R4 | 42 | |
2007/08 | 6 | 60 | 1.58 | R3 | R3 | 41 | |
2008/09 | 6 | 62 | 1.63 | R5 | R3 | R3 | 53 |
2009/10 | 6 | 64 | 1.68 | SF | Final | Q4 | 54 |
So, what do you expect the club to achieve in 2010/2011?
I’ll leave this survey open until just before the season opens and publish the results shortly afterward. All individual forms submitted will remain confidential, no personal information will be published.
Thank you for taking the time to let me know your opinion.
