Aston Villa v Blackburn Rovers F.A. Cup 4th Round Pre-Match Thread

[PaulTheVillan]

Please no Pires.

[Holtenderinthesky]

2-0 Villa.  I'd like to see Gabby upfront for this one and if he is I'd say he'll score both.  If not then it'll be Heskey and Downing again.

[Rip Van We Go Again]

Please no Pires.

I reckon even Houllier says that when he sees him waddling onto the training pitch.

[JJ-AV]

1-0. Gabby

Friedel
Walker - Dunne - Collins - Clark
Albrighton - Makoun - Downing - Gabby
Heskey - Delfouneso

[TaxDodger]

1-0. Delfouneso 86.

Villa 2 Blackburn 1 with heskey getting a brace.

I will also go for 2-1 with Gabby and Downing scoring.

Downing

[ROBBO]

Anyone think he may start Gardner? it would save a midfielder for the United game and give GH a good look at him.

[McCanns Patch]

Really need our strongest side possible for this, great opportunity to reach the 5th round with a few all prem ties taking place too.

We will do it over a replay.

[eamonn]

Buoyed by Bent? Optimism around the club for the first time since last April? A chance to progress to the latter stages of the only major competition we haven 't won in the past 50 years? Three wins in a row?
Isn't the Villa way is it?

1-2 to t'Rovers

[PeterWithesShin]

Us 3-1 them. Watched by about 22K and 156 Rovers fans.

I think we'll sneak this one one nil, Agbonlahor to continue his 'hot streak'!
