I think Spurs will make quite a few changes so hopefully the chances of a spanking are reduced
I'm still in oz so happy to just wake up tomorrow and check the score in the morning. No injuries and at least putting up a performance and managing to pass the ball will do for me
How depressing
Reckon we're facing a real hiding. Never mind though, at least we can all stream out of the ground well before the 6pm tube strike.
Zero Sum Game. Anything less than a win will enable the BBC to drive home their anti Villa bias. Being 'plucky' losers or getting a replay will mean they can patronise Villa like a non league team. A big win for Spurs and the BBC will grind our faces in the dust.
I have got used to having our faces ground in the dust. We will still be Aston Villa tomorrow morning.
I think we'll nick this, and I haven't even had a drink yet. Come on you Villa boys!
The closer we get to kick off the more and more I actually really want us to progress in the cup...
If Bruce can't get us promoted maybe he can bring some silverware...
Gabby and Tishbola start, Jedinak also back.
Johnstone in goal.

Subs: Gollini, Elphick, Westwood, Cissokho, Green, Davis, McCormack
