Stay at home and watch the rugby.

He can read the side of a bottle

why did somebody spike his Kaliber?

The die is cast after the transfer window.
So apart from a full on riot against the board, the only thing we can do is get behind the manager and team.

I will be there, but I do not like the prospect of insufficient alcohol intake due to the stupid kick off time, and the weather forecast of heavy freeing rain. I never used to mind the rain before last season's game against Bolton at VP, but now it gives me the fear.

Have we ever lost five league home games in a row?

[JUAN PABLO]

I don't buy all this must win stuff. A draw isn't the end of the world. At the end of the day we need roughly 16-18 points from all the remaining games. I couldn't care less what games they came in as long as they come. Unexpected results happen all the time, look at Saints today. I just hope people don't put too much emphasis on this game and start throwing their toys out the pram if we don't win. It's a tough game against a well drilled side.

I have to disagree. Saints aside, everything has gone our way today. It's starting to look like 3 from 4 and if we ever have a chance we need a win tomorrow. Anything less and I think we are done for.

agree with the disagree

[Dave Clark Five]

I hope the Manager and team are fully aware of the importance of this game. We are running out of easy to beat sides and have been struggling to win all season. Nobody else is going to improve our situation by losing, unless we win ourselves.

[ACVilla]

3-0 Villa

[Rancid custard]

3 - 1 Villa win

Another record up for grabs.

[ROBBO]

I really believe that if we lose to Spam Lambert will walk.

I cant see it, he will stick around and take the pay  off.

[Marlon From Bearwood]

I really believe that if we lose to Spam Lambert will walk.

You could've said that after the 3 thrashings over Xmas, or losing at home to Southampton and Newcastle, or losing a Semi Final to a division 4 side, or getting knocked out the FA Cup by Millwall. Why now?

So nervous, been pacing around since 6am

[Fernando Partridge]

I suppose lambo will go with 4 2 3 1 again with Nzog in a 'free' role. I prefer some proper width. Though if we show the fight then can get result. Will there be goals? Most probably! I think 3-2 Villa.
