Guzan
Hutton - Cuellar - Dunne - Clark
Petrov - Bannan
Albrighton - Ireland - N'Zogbia
Bent

Get it won by half-time and get Stevens, Gardner and Delfouneso on.

Well, I reckon:

Guzan

Hutton
Cuellar
Dunne
Clark

Albrighton
Bannan
Ireland
N'Zogbia

Agbonlahor

Weimann

Get ahead by half time and lets look at the kids after that.
If Carlos is injured, move Clark to CB and LB Delph.
1-4 Villa

Wouldnt have been surprised if this one had been picked up by ITV as a live game...it has banana skin giant killing written all over it now. Still, they are in bigger mess than we are and should be a comfortable win.

I think the phase 'We're not at home to Mr cock up' suit this came quite well.

There's also full commentary on R5 - shock clearly expected, though I'd not be surprised tbh!

Wouldn't you be worried about that midfield being slight too offensive?  I know we're playing a lower league team but it's one with nothing to lose....

1-3 win I reckon, Bent will get two and Gabby the other one.

Must admit I'm really surprised Bristol are struggling this season, thought they'd be one of the favourites to win the league as Buckle did a good job at Torquay last season getting to the play off final and for that level they signed some good strikers like Scott McGleish and Zebroski.

They have got one tricky wide player we need to keep an eye on, Mustapha Carayol.
