Small Heath Alliance v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[TheSandman]

I don't care who he supports as long as he's professional and gives his all.

If he's as good as people say and meets that potential he will one day leave us for City but that will be Manchester City.

David Bentley has just signed for the scum on 6 months loan.

yeh straight into the squad for sunday...

Do you recjon he will be straight in your starting line up or sitting on the bench?

[Clampy]

I remember when Bentley broke through the ranks at Arsenal and thought he was going to be a hell of a player. He seems to have stood still though, whether that's because he's earning that much money he dose'nt care or what, but i've not been that impressed since he's early days.

The referee for the match will be Mark Clattenburg (Tyne & Wear)

Hopefully there will be a repeat of the last Birmingham derby he oversaw, as we convincingly triumphed 5-1 over Blues. It will be his 3rd Villa game, and we are yet to register a point with Clattenburg in charge this season. Birmingham are also yet to win with him in charge this season.

The assistants will be Adam Watts (yellow flag) and Scott Ledger (chequered flag). Michael Oliver will be 4th official.

is it right we have had a reduced allocation, OS says 1500 tickets, if so why is that ?

[villajk]

1,500 was the original allocation.  They have given us 200 more.

They wanted to give us even less, we argued, a compromise was reached to cut both our allocation and their numbers near us.

The bogs were already like that.

0-1 Gabby, the nearer to the game, the more confident i get.

Same here but I think it'll be a bit more comfortable.

Did you see ours after the league game? Or the thousands of your fans trying to get at the Villa end at your place? If you are going to try and lay the blame have a closer look at your own lot over many years before ours mate.
