Villa v Newcastle
Barclays Premier League
Villa Park
Date: Saturday May 7
Kick-off: 3pm
I know that there's the "Sob II" thread but it comes to something that its reached 3:30pm on the Thursday before the match and we didn't have a pre-match thread
-
Villa win.
FUCK THE FUCKERS.
-
Villa 0 v 7 Newcastle - Bacuna OG x3. Richards OG, three goals from whoever plays for them.
It'll be Nil nil at 45 minutes, four of these 7 come in injury time in the first half. The remainder plus 90. Bacuna will then come out on his own for a lap of honour.
-
Come in defeat number 12. Make yourself at home.
-
0-3
Anyone who thinks we will beat them and help send them down again is kidding themselves.
-
Newcastle are the only team in the PL this season we have not been beaten by.
2-1 Villa
-
2-1 to Newcastle, Townsend the match winner.
-
Let's say farewell to the Premier League in style !!
-
1-0 The Barcodes.
-
Let's say farewell to the Premier League in style !!
Yeah, a record 10-0 home defeat or something epic like that.
-
They will be up for this big time,3-1 to them
-
Can only see our gutless muppets lead by Mr Dull getting out worked and out fought.
-
I can see us winning this one...honestly
-
I would love it, love it, if we beat them.
But sadly we won't.
-
1-3 Beardsley, Keegan and Albert for Newcastle. Hollis for Villa.
-
The players are generally pretty awful for both teams so it comes down to Eric "we are doomed" Black vs Rafa "I actually believe in winning" Benitez.
Its pretty obvious who comes out on top.
Gratz Newcastle on staying up.
We might get a consolation goal. 1-2 to the Mags.
-
Before last week I'd have predicted an easy win for the Toon, with Villa just disintegrating again, but we did show some fight against Watford and the Villa support really got behind the team. If this happens again we could just win. 2-1 Villa
-
All I hope is that we give it a proper go - still think we will get stuffed though.
-
2-2.
I'm going to be a glory hunter and go and watch Bromsgrove in a cup final. Neutral ground for this final was chosen at the beginning of the season is the Vic, which is nice and should be a big advantage.
-
No we have already lost, because there is no belief in the team.
we will be on their backs which wont help.
BUT fuck it , I accept defeat, "it aint going to rain on my day out, with the brethren beer , beer ,beer and maybe a ruby. and talk of are rise from the shit lerner has put us through.
-
0-3,but we have a wittier bedsheet than them.
-
Villa win.
FUCK THE FUCKERS.
Stamp on their human faces forever.
-
Two one to the Caret and blue wizards
-
Looking forward to this, should be fun but I expect the usual defeat.
Are they giving away model planes again or shall I take my own? I might even take Kerplunk as it's the last day.
-
2-0 to villa. No idea why, just a feeling that we have absolutely nowt to lose and Newcastle have everything to lose
-
I'm sure I've read somewhere that the club haven't yet decided whether or not to do the traditional "lap-of-appreciation" after this game.
If they do go ahead there maybe a money-making opportunity for Mr Woodhall to make a financial killing by setting up a stall on Witton Lane selling rotten fruit.
We'll lose 2-0.
-
Villa 3-0. Take the Barcodes down with us.
UTV
-
I'm looking forward to it.
The beer and burgers i expect to be their usual high standard.
Thr company is always fab and its good to catch up with friends.
No idea what we'll do. I'll be pissed off with the line up and wait for the away fans to celebrate.
1-3. Gestede for us. Cisse, Townsend and somebody else for them.
-
Head says we'll capitulate; heart says Newcastle may bottle it with the pressure and we scrape a tight draw.
-
1-3 to the Barcodes. Let's face it, this game is a fait accompli.
-
Villa 5 Newcastle 4.
-
They'll win, they'll see it as some sort of karma, of course it won't be.
-
Biggest shock since Hereford in 1972 if we beat them.
-
The bookies have us at 5/1 to win which is unbelievable really. At home against the team in 17th position.
Fuck the fuckers, I'm having a tenner on that.
-
Is the inflatables thing happening then?
There must be some puns in that for this site...

I wish I shared your optimism.

I might too, score first and who knows. Pressure is certainly on them.

Yes, the weight is off our players' shoulders, of course.

Villa Some Newcastle Some More
-
Fuck it! I'm sticking my neck out and going for a Home win no matter how unlikely that may seem ::) Ayew and Gestede for us.
Its a hard game to approach because they all the momentum and even with an early goal there's a good chance they would fight back, but then I don't know if it works to our strengths to build slowly? Anyway the pressures more on them so maybe that will work in our favour, kind of doubt it though.
-
OK, so, for the first time in 11 matches, I'm joining the lunatic asylum and going for a Villa win. No logical reason but, they say that law of averages has to work at some time!!!!
-

you will win 50 quid then plus your tenner back , thats £60 in total
-
If you can find a site that's offering Villa at 10-1 to win, then you stick a fiver on it, you'll only lose £5.
-
Newcastle have something to bite on, something to fight for.
they will be well up for this and will batter us.
0-4
-
Whatever the result, I'd like to hope the booing of Bacuna can stop now. i think we have made our point, as far as I can see he is getting both barrels for his misjudged quotes on wanting champions league football but ive had my fill of it now, it just feels like he is getting picked on. I dont think he is particularly malicious or was trying to engineer a move away, I just think he is really stupid. Not like Jack was stupid getting pissed and lying in the road, more like stupid stupid. Like a dog barking at itself in a mirror for 10minutes....

what jack done was after last season finished and before he had to report for pre season training for this season

Never the less it was a stupid thing to do, there is a chance a taxi could have ran over his head. It doesnt make him stupid, just means he did a stupid thing. If it was Bacuna he may have thought that road was a beach, laid out a towel, lathered himself in factor 14, lay down and started reading spot the dog.
-
Yes leave Boocuna alone. I personally will never forget his Hodgesque defence splitting pass for Southampton's second in the last home game......That should be his legacy.
-
Them something, unless we drop some personnel and tighten up - nothing. *sigh*
We haven't seen the 'dot' much this season - maybe a reason for our downfall?
-
After somehow snatching defeat from the jaws of victory last week in stoppage time i just accept we have a team of losers and can't see us getting another point any time soon. 2-0 to the Barcodes

It's not just his quote about Champions League football - do you not remember Wycombe away where he got dog's abuse - its for his attitude full stop along with certain other members of the squad who know who they are. Every player who has not given 100% when they step on the pitch is cheating every supporter who has paid good money to watch the team - they all deserve every bit of abuse and booing that they get! How players like him and others can get in the team ahead of Grealish, Gil and the kids is beyond me and I have 53 years of watching the Villa - more than Mr Black's
37 years of experience!
-
I can see us winning this one...honestly
Sorry to bring this thread back on topic but I have had a think about it and changed my mind.
We are going to loose this one...honestly
As you were

Oooooooh, Booocuna. Good work.
All I can see is another shithouse capitulation from our bunch of muppets - so I'm going 0-3 & obese, pissed & shirtless Geordies dishing out the insults (bless). At least Villa will be the only ones breaking any record(s). :D
-
Team news as it stands , so who plays at Left back ?, Hutton , with Lyden or Richards on the right?.....Godzvilla!
Jordan Veretout ....struggling with a pelvic problem.
Rudy Gestede .... issue with his groin.
Kieran Richardson .... struggling with his calf....All are serious doubts.
Aly Cissokho is suspended for this game after his red card at Watford.

We might go 5-3-2 with Hutton on the right and Bacuna on the left as, and I use the term loosely, 'wing-backs'
-
Gabby to score a hat trick in the 30 seconds before being subbed
-
There will not be a lap of appreciation from Villa players after Newcastle game #avfc
-
So the Borg is looking likely to start at LB then. Be nice to see him start as he has impressed - hopefully he can play next Tuesday as well. The major worry would be Gestede's injury - if Ayew is brought off then Gabby on instead? Oh the horror! Maybe if the Libor is fixed then he could sub.
-
Looking forward to the atmosphere tomorrow, should be a laugh. Let's go out with a bang.
"And now you're gonna believe us, we're going on the pitch..."

Villa win.
Well, it's got to happen sometime.
And the Barcodes' defensive record is almost as bad as ours.

Smegg Evans of The Meaning Evil has written that the number of police persons and stewards has been increased to guard against any shenanigans.
In other news, it seems there is a protest march planned.

Think Bacuna has suffered enough, I'd put Richards in there at Left back or Lescott. Let them be humilitated not Toner who I expect Black to play on left.
Pity Gestede is injured, Ayew and himself up front caused Newcastle a lot of problems earlier in the year. Their left back Dummet is useless and Anita at right back is surely vulnerable
Struggling to pick a team but f*ck playing Sanchez, utterly useless when he came on v Watford, Sinclair is another non entity that I could do without seeing again in a Villa shirt.
Bunn/Guzan/traffic cone
Hutton, Clark, Toner, Richards/Lescott
Westwood, Gueye, Veretout
Green, Ayew, Grealish

Snag is they have a player, Townsend, who is in form and we haven't got a fit or available left back to counter that. I smell trouble with goals for them at 45+1 and 90+1 and 90+3

Funny reading Twitter and the deluded Geordies who are doing a Small Heath claiming they're taking The Holte ;D Also that they're coming to take the piss, they'll be in for a shock at our party atmosphere as we've been taking the piss out of ourselves for months.

Loony Tunes 0 - 2 Deluded Toon
-
I genuinely don't care what the result is.
-
I do. I would like to see us win another game this season and this one would be fun. Sadly Eric Black is in charge and his publicly stated aim is for "another good performance" rather than actually winning something.

Followed by the second verse "And now you're gonna believe us, we're going to get a criminal record, a Football Banning Order and the club fined."
-
I think last week was the blip in this losing run (nearly not losing). Today normal service will be resumed. 0-2
-
I am hosting a good mate of mine , a mackem, in the Bartons at lunch time. We had arranged to be there together to see Toons go down so hoping for a win today. If you are there do say hello if you see a pairing of a dark man and a very short aggressive looking northerner!
-
i think we will thrash them 1-0 not sure if i want to send them down though i think we will have enough problems next season without these being there aswell

Leaving home for the game. See you in the Barton's. I am the one standing next to Damon.

You're doing yourself down there Brian. He might be a TV superstar but he's still your boy. Therefore, its Damon who will be standing next to you.

How about try and win the game to Eric.

I actually think Sunderland would be more of a threat to us in the championship than Newcastle. Big Sam got West Ham promoted at the first attempt. Let's bring the deluded Geordies with us.
-
My first appearance since the Watford game, I would dearly love us to avoid a 12th successive defeat but I've no doubt this team will give us yet another unwanted club record, my son and I are going to do our best to enjoy the game and maybe a more lighter atmosphere once the march has been completed.

I agree. Rafa would be gone quicker than you could tweet a Black series AMG Mercedes if they went down.
They'd have to offload a chunk of their better players to get the wages off the books if, as widely reported, they really haven't got relegation clauses in their contracts. They'd have to get get rid of Shelvey to get his wages off the books too.
I know they managed to come straight back up last time, but I don't think that they'll be able to keep that squad together like they did last time, unless Ashley, who's seen over a £1 billion written off his net wealth in the last 12 months, is prepared to underwrite a gamble that could end up costing him a couple of hundred million if he has to sub their wages and then sell them 12 months later for considerably less than he'd get in June or July.

I shall be arriving at The Bartons in T minus 30 seconds.
-
Rumours that Small Heath are flying a plane and banner over VP at 3.15.
-
How very 2012.
-
On my way. Home win. No harm in dreaming.
-
Just getting ready to leave. I have tried pencils up the nose and saying 'a word that rhymes with scribble and begins in w but which the self righteous word filter deletes' but to no avail.

I've never actually been in the Bartons - how far/where abouts is it from the ground?
Edit: I always used to drink in the adventurers but my understanding is its gone?

Agree unless Sam got poached by someone else bottom half of Prem #league
