Wigan Athletic v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[Billy Walker]

Gary Gardner...I foresee a first goal and a Villa victory!

[villadelph]

I predicted a Villa thrashing but I really want to see us possess today. They had over 60% of the possession at VP, and we had a decent squad out there. I want to see us keep the ball and comfortably win this game. Don't overthink it Alex.

What if.. Charlie doesn't start? ha.

[VillaSpen]

I'm sure that anyone fortunate enough to be going will be able to have a tremendous time regardless of the result. I've had three trips up that way and the nightlife has been superb each time.

They'll score from a corner, I reckon. We'll still nick it, though. 2-1 Villa.

Have a good night whichever lucky sods are going up!

[TopDeck113]

Must win. Think we will 2-1

[Rotterdam]

1-1

[OzVilla]

2-0 Bent with a brace.

I hope he doesn''t start Heskey.

The presence or non presence of Emile in the side these days tends to tell you a bit about how he wants to play.

[rjp]

I have 1 spare ticket, anyone interested?

[Mazrim]

3-1.

Gabby, Ireland and N'Zogbia.

[rjp]

The tickets gone

Just effin win you barstewards.

[damon loves JT]

Come on Villa.

[Chipsticks]

Maybe Heskey will be really eager to have a good game against his old club? Or something. We can hope.

I'm hoping he won't be playing, I can't see any reason why he would.
