West Ham v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[ju1i4n]

Just to warn anyone going to Wet Spam tomorrow who hasn't seen the forecast - it's going to be absolutely bloody sweltering down there, 30C or so  .  Better take on plenty of fluids....

I'm changing my prediction to 1-3 Holman, Bent 2. New season optimism.

[taylorsworkrate]

1-1

Bent 25 mins
Some Knobhead 66 mins.

Time to bring the shorts out

[SoccerHQ]

Knobhead Nolan?

I do worry about us on the set pieces tommorrow as ever, it's a Big Sam team so they're bound to bundle one in at some point.

Anyone know anywhere in the Cradley/Halesowen/Dudley area that might be showing the game? I'm in the area around that time. Can anyone help?

Off twitter,

@SFitzgerald1986: No Diarra No Nolan No MacDonald Maiga starting tomorrow has to be said if weren't favorites before we should be now.

I'm a lot more confident now I know those 3 are not playing.

Alright gents, sorry if I'm being a Dufus but I've heard of a paying website that streams villa games and am up for paying for reliability as I'm sick of trawling through rubbish stream sites for our away games and missing half of them. Does anyone know the name/website and secondly is it worth the money? Thanks in advance

Villastreams.
Not too expensive bit I don't bother anymore.

I asked the same question a  a couple of pages back - replies 189/190 cover it. Villa Streams may be closed to new accounts but something called Flashsportsstreams may do the job

Second ask for a mate / any pubs in solihull Ish area that will show the match!?

I signed up for 3 months at Villa Streams earlier today with no problems.

It might be that as I subscribed before a while ago I am on a database? But it definately accepted me for 3 months.

How did you manage that, atomicjam?  I just tried by clicking the "Not registered yet? Signup here" link on the site and got a "Sign Up's are closed" message.  Any ideas?

To paraphrase the callers to the friday night phone ins,

Long time lurker, first time poster!

I can see this been a 2-2 draw with Bent and Holman scoring for us.

If I'm right do I get a bronx hat?!

Thanks all, no luck with villa steams though unfortunately, sign ups are closed. Hardly good business sense IMO
