Well we could do what the scum did today and stick 9 men behind the ball and just counter attack  or we could try and play football.

Either way it shows you that hard work and graft can beat any team thats how inter beat Barca last year,blues beat arsenal, no reason why we cant beat Shitty

Jon Moss is 4th official.
Didn't he used to drum for Culture Club/The Damned?

Warriors of the Wasteland, Dzeko (if he plays) & Tevez scoring two each to pile more misery on us.

Fuck.  I hate cup ties.

can't see us getting anything here but then Fulham should have won there yesterday by all accounts. What the hell, 1-0 Villa

They'll be too strong for us at their place.

There's cause for optimism. They're struggling a bit at the moment and we're in a run of one defeat in nine. I just wish we had a few more experienced defenders available. My heart says 2-1 to Villa.

If I was a Man City fan I'd be feeling nervous about playing us this week given our respective results and performances this weekend. Their squad means that they're still favourites but it's not inevitable.

I think it's hard to judge as I expect Mancini to switch things around a bit.  We'll be buoyant, and they won't be, so I think the first goal here is key.

Still I don't actually expect to win there, so I'd be happy enough if we can take it to a replay!

Worried that yesterdays performance will work against us,as i doubt if they'll be poor two games in a row.
Them 2 Us 1.

With the strange dark forces now controlling football it must be our year.... 2-1 Villa.
