Wigan Athletic v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

2-3 Villa

If we are going to win, I suspect your prediction is likely to be pretty accurate - we won't do it via a routine, unscary, routine 2 goal margin, we'll do it after inflicting an afternoon of torture on every one of our supporters

[TheSandman]

Fail to win this, and we're in a tricky place.

Lose this, and the bloke needs to get the bullet.

the next 4 games define the season

Absolutely. If we cannot get a healthy smattering of points in them (at least 7 or then it is a big cause for concern.

3-1 to us. Level until 75 mins when we get our second and a late one to put the gloss on things.

Next 4 games
There are 12 points up for grabs
We want all of them
And we should get them
Anything less and it should be bye bye

1-1
I'm sure Wiigan will smell blood, the chance to drag someone into the dogfight. I think they will be up for it and we should not be complacent.

[Concrete John]

I would go with 2-0 to us until the 75th minute when they get one back, and a leisurely afternoon turns into squeaky bum time.

Pretty much what I'm expecting.

I'd like to see Keane sign off with a goal.

I've completley lost track of what's going on with Villa, who is injured, fit, suspended or what! I haven't a clue any more. I don't even know where my Season Ticket Card is....

1-0 Villa, Bent.

Don't worry - it's away!

[CJ]

2-2. Can't see either team keeping a clean sheet. We may edge it if Gabby plays

[Walmley_Villa]

Taking my boys to their first ever away game.....pray it goes well. The youngest doesn't like going to home games as it is.

3 - 1 Villa (Bent x 2 and N'Zog with Warnock OG)

I think we'll win. 1-0. Petrov goal.

So unless we show title winning form in the next 4 he has to go?

When was the last time we won 4 games on the spin?

Very true. 

However, all these games are winnable and we need to get some points on the board.  I wouldn't say "10 points or he goes" or anything like that, but we certainly need to use these games to put any relegation fears to bed.
