Dann is definetly out, so with a bit of luck Ridgewell will be in the centre, which should mean at least a penalty or an o.g.

Just as well really, not sure Channel5 could recover from Blues 0 - Inter Cabletel 0 on a Thursday night

Inter Cabel-Tel. Wow. That brings back memories of Aberystwyth Town's famous 1-0 home defeat to them, despite the fact they had gone bust and lost their entire squad the day before , leaving their team involving nobody over the age of about 17.

Friedel, Walker, Cuellar, Dunne, Clark, Albrighton, Delph, Petrov, Reo-Coker, Downing, Agbonlahor.

A surprisingly comfortable 2-0 victory.

Gabby and then Delfouneso off the bench.

Same team as Dave above, but Bannan instead of Delph for me, I'll say 1-1, Reo Coker for us.

Blues haven't had to face Albrighton yet so I think we'll get some success there.  Gabby will as he always does will undoubtedly score and I fancy Downing to nick one too.  3 - 1 to the Villa, quite confident.
Hate to say it, but been pretty accurate with the last few blues villa predictions.... This time though, I reckon we will give them a spanking - 3-1 Villa.

3-1 Villa.

no pressure....

Get into 'em......

Had a dream last night that we won 3-1.

Reading their forums aswell their ticket sales for sunday are 'dismal', with some predicting as low as 21k or 22k. Shit ground no fans.

Makoun still has to have a medical and has to discuss personal terms.

Pretty sure Delph is fit and healthy to play. He was only going to miss the Chelsea and FA Cup game.

He's always out injured.

How much did he cost again ?

If Houllier gets Makoun whose position is he for Coker, or Pirez.
