Aston Villa v Newton Heath LYR Pre-Match Thread

[Legion]

One team will get two, the other nil.

[Rigadon]

I hope we try and win the game.  That is all.

[Dave Cooper please]

Scintillating 4-4 draw.

[luke25]

Even when we were decent we got twatted in this one, no change here 0-4.

[TheSandman]

I think we will lose and lose heavily (on balance of play if not goals scored like at Spurs) but that is to be expected in all honesty. I just hope and pray that we're reasonably positive and try to play football and I hope that the Tumbling Bear is given a rest.

[CJ]

An embarrassingly easier than usual 4-0 win for them with AY scoring at least once.

I'd like to see the starting line up pretty much the same as yesterday's finishing line up. But we all know he won't do it. To try and contain Manure he'll go with:

                          Given
    Cuellar    Collins    Dunne   Warnock
Hutton    Herd    Guzan    Clark     Lichaj
                          Heskey

[Shrek]

Given
Cuellar-Dunne-Clark-Warnock
Herd-Jenas
N'Zogbia-Bannan-Gabby
Bent

I wish!!!

[timeoutbigbar]

An unexpected point from a battling performance.  1-1 Bent and Young for them.

[wombat]

Hmmmm... i'm really struggling to be interested in this. I think we will be woefully defensive and lose comprehensively 2-0 despite Man U not being great.

So do I turn up and be late for my works do.... or miss Stourbridge V Stevenage if I get a ticket... or do I freeze my bum off and see the above.... hmmmmmm, i'm really torn.

[Rotterdam]

I think we will lose and lose heavily (on balance of play if not goals scored like at Spurs) but that is to be expected in all honesty. I just hope and pray that we're reasonably positive and try to play football and I hope that the Tumbling Bear is given a rest.

I agree with Zog and will avoid watching and listening to it.
0-4 to them.

[andyh]

0-4
and then we'll be told there is no shame in losing to Man U....again

[PaulTheVillan]

1-1

This is my least favourite fixture of the entire season, and has been for years.

The absolute worst thing we could do is to pull a repeat of Tottenham on this lot.

I'd rather we gave it a good fucking go and lost 6-0 than repeated that humiliating capitulation and kept it down to 2-0

[TopDeck113]

We'll huff and we'll puff and we might even put in one of the better performances of the season so far.  And in the end we'll lose 2-1.
