Has anyone ever tried, for 5 minutes to support a different team. It is physically impossible. I don't know how people do it. I get about 15 seconds in before thinking about the Villa again!

Anyhow...

Friday.

Guzan in nets, no fecking about with the line hogger

Lichaj - Lowton needs a rest
Dunne - 90 minutes before Newcastle would be useful
Vlaar - Needs fitness too
Clark - run out at left back as an experiment.

Holman - right mid, giving width.
Westwood - Should be fresh
Johnson - Delph is carrying a knock, and Bannan is at best shiny gold shite at the moment
Bennett - the kid is a left winger in the making, best crosser at the club and can beat a man

Bent - 90 minutes will do him good
Weimann - For obvious reasons - he scores goals and is a good player

Absolutely bang on the money about Bennett

Benteke, Gabby, Delph, Lowton, NZogbia, Given, Williams on the bench, but hopefully sparsely used. Win would be nice, but getting the others to Newcastle rested more important for me.

The reason why the game has been put forward to Friday night is that there is a protest against the closure of Lewisham Hospital happening on the Saturday afternoon.

I cannot honestly say I've ever been happier to see a Villa game moved.

Going to try to get to both.

Where is everyone meeting before and after for the game. Is there an away fans pub in the area?

Somewhere in Slough perhaps?


After all they don't like you feeding the animals in the zoo
Playa Blanca?

Wouldn't want to go there....last night I was the only Villa one whilst the rest were 'Bradford' supporters.....and my wife noticed that they were all drinking tea or coffee

I do genuinely support another team as well. Unfortunately for me, the other team is Bristol Rovers   :'(

Clark - run out at left back as an experiment.



I'd have thought that the debacle at Wolves would have put an end to that experiment.

Got to agree, he got murdered by Micheal Kightley in that first half.

My chanting of "There's only one Rickie Lambert" before the Southampton game did get me a few funny looks

Does anybody north of the border know if I can see the match on TV?

I'm spending the weekend in Glasgow.

There again I'll have more fun in the hotel bar and keep in touch via mobile.
