Aston Villa v Newcastle United Pre-Match Thread

[Villa'Zawg]

I have only one thing on my mind at the moment. What time should I leave home to get to the pub to ensure the optimum amount of alcohol intake.

I'm making sure that i'm comfortably numb by kick off.

That's settled it, I'm off.

[achilles]

Feeling remarkably optimistic about this one, although I have absolutely no grounds to feel this way as Ged will play exactly the same way/team that doesn't suit us, however 3-1 to the Villa.

P.S. I will definitely not be a happy bunny if we don't win this game, its about time the players delivered on the pitch, they are certainly good enough irrespective of whether they are playing in their 'proper' positions!

[PaulWinch again]

I'm now really confident we will win this.

Setting out in 5 for a pre-match beverage, still feeling strangely confident and sticking with my 5-0 prediction

[Dave Cooper please]

I have only one thing on my mind at the moment. What time should I leave home to get to the pub to ensure the optimum amount of alcohol intake.

The temptation is to get my skates on.

Ooh, no, I really don't think you should go roller-skating after a few pints.

On the train so about forty mins away from a pint

I have just been talking to a bloke who was actually ringing bells in his church this morning. That has to be a good sign doesn't it?

[cheltenhamlion]

I just asked a yam yam Newcastle fan if he fears crying into his man tits like last time they came to Villa Park. They are expecting their lot to roll over today.

[cheltenhamlion]

To the greatest fussball supporters in the world, we need a twelfth man out there today.

So, where are you?

Come on, where are you?

Let's be having you!

And fade to more gin...

[JJ-AV]

Off to the cafe now, got my scarf tied round my wrist. Got that big game feeling, quite excited despite the feeling of nervousness.

Whatever happens, we're all in it together. Come on you Villa boys!

[Mark H]

I really am as nervous as a kitten about the game today - knot in stomach and all - come on Villa get us a win today to ease this pain !

[PeterWithesShin]

Very nervous about today and yet very confident as well. Just don't sing too loud, I have a hangover!

UTV

[tim]

No idea why, but confident of a win today. 
Don't care who scores...

[Bully2345]

Am currently stuck in college, nervously waiting for game. Have had to give up the season ticket for this game, which I resent. At least the lecturer has confirmed we will be out before 4 as he wants to watch game. I think he's a Newcastle fan.

If anyone sees a nervous villa fan in the horn in hand pub in Nottingham, that'll be me!

Massive day

Blackpool 0-2 down. IF we can scrape 3 points together today, then the task is much more positive.
