[Louzie0]

VCTM jnr had the choice of going to the game or playing hockey for Formby ... guess what ? Miss VCTM is accompanying her father to the game instead !!!

Like to think we can get a win here but the head says 1-1

Please ensure Miss VCTM is very comfortable and has all the bovril she needs.

Start a facebook page and you'll get a meeting with the board.

Now, there's a thought!


Actually, I'd prefer banging a drum (if that's not a euphemism) with Brigada than facebooking so I'm a bit too unreconstructed for the cyber-petitioning mob. 

And I prefer sheets back where they belong - draped over furniture.

I am confident of a comfortable win 3-0

I should know better at my age but I am really looking forward to tomorrow.

No doubt they'll give us a scare or two along the way, but 4-2 Villa.

If the record of former players scoring against us is anything to go by I expect at least one from N'Zogbia.

I dreamt last night that we lost... 3-0... And Mcleish got Sacked!

I would rather just win.

This will be my first trip to Wigan, does anyone have any advice regarding pubs etc?  I'll be turning up on the train around 12:30.

Depends what you want to do. There's 3 pubs that are openly welcoming Away Fans.

Is it the football or the ale?

[supertom]

We need to win the next two then we're all but safe. Wigan are godawful so I fancy us to get a result.

2-0
Keane and Bent.

I'll be sad seeing Keano leave.

Aston Villa welcome Gabriel Agbonlahor back for their match against Wigan.

The striker has been out with back and hamstring problems, which have led him to miss Villa's last three matches.

Chris Herd could also be involved after coming through an hour in a reserve match unscathed. The midfielder has been out for around two and a half months with ankle ligament damage.

No problems anywhere in Wigan.
