[Lambert and Payne]

Starting to get a buzz on for this now, about to leave work, get to the pub, consume my weight in alcohol fast and get behind the lads

Morley on Talkshite in a minute apparently.

You wont' understand a word he says anyway.

He was shite, typical sit on the fence type of stuff because he works for the club.  Unlucky with injuries, lots of problems at the club blah blah blah.  Didn't address the problems at all. MCLEISH IS THE PROBLEM.  Say it!!

[McGraths Dry Cleaning]

Please stop shitting yourselves. This is football.

Go to the match, have a few pints, have the craic, scream your lungs out and enjoy yourselves.
Everything will be alright.

Or if shitting oneself can't be avoided, please come kitted out in mansized nappy.

My son has been shitting himself all day but he is only 11 months old.

TalkSport are annoying me by saying that "we've been reliant on Heskey". No mention of Weimann, who if anything, we've been more reliant on than any other player recently.

[Witton Warrior]

Right.

Cats fed - check
Lad fed - check
Rubbish out (not McLeish) - check
Dave arrived for lift - Errrrr Come on Dave
Lungs ready - check
Exscuses ready - check

Let's go!!!!!

Can't remember being this nervous about a league game for many a long year.  And it's fcuking Bolton Wanderers.

We should only ever be nervous about Bolton at home if we need a cup semi win or the points for European qualification.

I don't like that this has become so important but think we will be fine.

Time to head off to VP soon. Fucking come on Villa, lets have these feckers and show what we're capable of.

Can't remember how true this is (a nose told me), but it sounds like it might be. Apparently, when SHA were playing Bolton last season, AM started with one up front. They went behind and the 'crowd' started their '4-4-2' chant. He brought on another striker and they were all over them until they equalised. Happy with a point, he promptly took a striker off, and they ended up losing.

Anyway, like Alex, I'll settle for a point.

EDIT: couldn't have been last season as they beat them 2-1. Ignore me.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

4-1 Villa. The kids will do us proud.

4-1 Villa. The kids will do us proud.

Been at the Sagres have we?

[Apyadg]

0-0 draw and one game closer to having gone 6 months without a home win.

[Rip Van We Go Again]

According to The Daily Mirror, William Hill were offering 11/4 on less than two goals, I was sorely tempted to have a punt.

I get the impression the only youngsters they will big up are ones signed to London PR agencies.
