Championship Play-off Final : Pre-Match Thread

It is absolutely massive. Win and we will keep Jack, and very hopeful of getting Mings and they are two massive players even in the sky league. The owners will really be able to back the manager and we would have a clued up manager able to give the team a real shape.

Target the stand in left back Ashley Cole (38), and Keogh.

Be wary of Wilson and Mount.

What about tem being a little bit wary of Jack, Abrahams and SJM?

I think the fact that both sets of fans are nervous about the game is one of the reasons neutrals are looking forward to it!

And cheers DC. If there's one thing I'd miss about the championship it's the general cameraderie between fans of most clubs.

Boys my Raptors just got to the NBA finals vs Wes’ Bucks. Stage one of two for me this weekend. It’s been brilliant so far. But nothing, NOTHING will beat Villa going up

Isn't this their first time in the finals, mate? Congratulations to you! I studied in Michigan for a year when I was 19, and became fond of the Pistons. This was back in 2002.

I remember going to a Pistons/Raptors playoff game when the Canadian national anthem was booed. Me and a Spanish mate were berated for not standing up during the American national anthem also. We pointed out that we weren't American. 'And?' was the reply. Haha.

So, any idea how Derby will set up tactically, strengths and weaknesses?

[Bad English]

I am calm, I am sleeping well, I am free from stress, nerves or worry. I am patiently awaiting kick-off in complete serenity. I am not fretting about the team or the opposition because we pay Dean Smith and his team to do that for us.

I am totally confident that we will do the job in ninety minutes.

Up the Villa!

Diamond midfield with Waghorn and Marriot up top.

Lots of space for us.

[Clampy]

If I've got one worry, it's I hope we don't have a wobble like we did in that first 10-15 mins of the second half against Smethwick. We looked a bit all over the place, passes were going astray and we saw how Derby pounced on Leeds when they were having a similar wobble. Other than that, i'm quietly confident.
