After the Hereford game earlier in the season which took us 80 odd minutes to score, i can see this being the same sort of game.After a struggle i can see us winning 1-0

When I moved down to W-s-Mare in the mid-70's it was Rovers fans I got on with quite well. City were quite obnoxious and up for punching a poor Brummie living abroad. Hope we win but no humiliation please (either way!)

Ive just checked and its a scrambled channel on freeview. I'm at work today so it would have been nice to watch the blues game then villa game. Oh well. Shouldnt believe everything you read in fans forums i suppose.
