Aston Villa v Bradford City Pre-Match Thread

For my prediction I will quote a very wise man:

"With 110% from each and every one of the players and your usual tremendous vocal backing, I am confident we can get the right result."

[Dave Clark Five]

You have to wonder if ticket sales are higher than they would have been had we won the first leg 4-0 or similar.

[avfcpg]

If we can put away the chances that we had in the first 20 mins of the first leg, it would be all over now.

Two early goals and a bit of a tonking....or a looooooong and painful affair? You just know it's going to be the latter.

[Jimbo]

Poll option doesn't make a distinction between a Villa win and go through  and a Villa win but go out.
There is a strong chance we will score enough  but fuck-up at the back from a breakaway or a deadball and go out.

And there's the rub. We are probably capable of scoring goals against Bradford, but given our awful defensive frailties, brittle confidence and feeble mental strength, will we be able to score enough?

Hmmm, i seem to remember that quote from somewhere!!..........

Get out there and kick arse.

Aston Express way closed?

[garyshawsknee]

Think we'll get plenty of chances,but I think they'll get some corners and free kicks,which we still struggle to defend.

[N'ZMAV]

They're going to be quite physical with us. Benteke needs to be stronger.

[john e]

quicker we get to 3 goals the better,
 i know thats a big ask but as long as they only need 1 goal to go through its going to be hell, i remember Trabzonspor
we could be 2 nill up with 15 mins to play and it will be nail biting because they will throw caution to the wind and we arent great under pressure, whereas with 3 it would mean extra time if they got 1.

anyway all i know is its going to do my head in, but still looking forward to it and counting the layers i'l be wearing tonight

Yeah i love this feeling!

The club with their guaranteed final tickets and Lambert whining about their stadium announcer has made us look fucking stupid, the Bradford fans are having a field day on twitter.

As if we give a shit about what's on Twitter.

I find it interesting reading the thoughts off opposition fans building upto and after a game sorry for that!

I am in the mental equivalent stage of Rambo tooling up.
I'm going to oil my throat with a few Irish whiskeys before going and I'll take a hip flask to not only warm the hearties but also keep me in good voice.
