Edit: 6-2 to the Villa.

On BBC Football Focus Houllier thinks we're playing Sheffield Wednesday.

Sigh.

That was fairly worrying wasn't it. Do we know for sure Houllier was scouting at Wednesday the other night or is there a genuine chance he attended the wrong game? Because if there is then that really is a 'WTF?' moment. Surely someone at VP would have been able to point out the error before he arrived?

Anyway, last night I dreamt that we won 4-1. But I also dreamt Barnet would win 1-0 and that's not going to happen...

Good grief.

Did he go to watch the Wednesday game last week to prepare notes for today?  I really hope he couldn't be that stupid.  Could he?

Maybe everyone's told him the game's at Wednesday. Just to get him out of the way.

I cannot in all honesty believe he could.  He's not a complete idiot so let's atleast cut him some slack on this one.

Teeny weeny bit scary though.

Surely Pires will be playing anywhere he can manage to trott too and Young will be left?
