That said, we will beat the silly pube headed, four eyed, fuck whilst he looks at the floor at the interviews and bemoans why its not as easy as it used to be.

Indignant Sunderland fans twatting on about ****** Face and Darren Bent ad nauseum to follow.

Villa 0 Sunderland 0 - McCleish celebrates

According to Irish radio today, Villa are a banker to beat Martinoneillsunderland and are part of the bet of the week. Jesus, have they seen us lately ?
1-1.

Villa 2 Martin O'Neill's Sunderland 1.

Weimann has to stay pinned up top, if I see him tracking back on the left flank and getting stuck back there I will do myself in. We have to attack. If Gabby or N'Zogbia don't look up for it, I wouldnt hesitate to throw on Carruthers in the 30th. We have to want to win this one. I hope we can play a high line of defense instead of sitting back so deep this time around.

I hope Randy shows up, but he wouldn't give a shit either way.

Nice graphic. The ------Given-----Hutton ones are charming but do grate.

I recommend it, it's such an easy website to use. You don't have to sign up and it's easy peasy.

Do you really think weimann can play the lone front man role? I doubt it personally, I don't think we'd be able to retain the ball (ha ha).

Absolutely. He's a pure striker and actually makes intelligent runs in the box unlike Gabby of late. Gabby's a winger now, he's lost his goal scoring/forward ability and is strictly a pace player. Weimann can and will score from anywhere. At least he looks like he wants to play when he's out there.

I take it you've accidently got Hutton and Eric on the wrong flanks.

[OzVilla]

I just cannot see us winning at the moment - the Managers mentality and lack of options means we'll never, ever go for it in matches and in MON we have just the sort of organisation at set pieces that will cause us serious trouble.  As we all to well know, he can motivate players too when he needs too and this is one game he'll really want to win.

0-2 to them and the site server blowing a fuse is my prediction.  Another season where I just want it all to end.

[Nev]

It's difficult to see where a win is coming from but everyone gets a bit of luck now and again and we are due some. Whether or not it will come in this game, I very much doubt it so we may have to wait until Bolton.

Whatever, given the way we play and the context of the game, I will be avoiding the painful and distressing sight of us trying to claim a result in the most pragmatic way possible, just as I did on Sunday.

0-0

[David_Nab]

Well at the moment we only have 3 players like to be out ,be it 3 of our main players Dunne ,Bent and Petrov so the lack of options isn't really an excuse for this match.

Are we not supposed to be cutting out abuse like that?

[cheltenhamlion]

We are. But give me 6 pints and a snivelling Sunderland fan and I find it incredibly hard not to bite. I will go back to being good now.
