With the new premier league TV deal
mid table clubs who you'd expect to be
safe in the premier league could now have some serious money to spend improving there teams and making them even harder to beat.
Strangely, following that dismal run Villa then went on a run of seven wins
in eight but it appears too little too late as Bruce's side now lie
in the safety of
mid table in thirteenth place, mathematically out of the playoffs and
safe from relegation.
