Aston Villa vs Sunderland Pre-Match Thread

[tomd2103]

Maybe some of you need to start thinking along the lines of 'if we get relegated we're not all gonna drop down dead'.

Don't even think it, Percy. Tonight will be another page in our great, illustrious history, a night when those lucky enough to be there will talk about great Villa Park games where the Holte rose up as one and inspired the lads to a great victory.

3-0 Villa.

Seem to remember some people saying the same about the home game against Bradford earlier in the season!!  We could really do with an early goal to settle some of the nerves.

Getting nevous now. Not sure I can even watch tonight's game.

True but then how were they to know Lambert would get his tactics so spectacularly wrong, learning nothing from the first leg.

Do you believe in the Villa!

No, I'm pretty sure they are just a figment of my drug fuelled imagination.

Lambert's my one worry about tonight. He needs to leave N'zogbia away from the starting line up and Bowery away from the bench.

I am really starting to get nervous now.  I have no idea what I am going to be like by 8pm.

[SteveN]

I just don't know how it will go.

Don't have Sky, off the beer so a pubs out and I don't think I have the courage to listen to it on the radio even if I hide behind the setee.  Might have to walk around the block for 2 hours.

Come on Villa, for once in a fair old time, just win a must win game.

2-2

The reaper's on its way up the M6.

Time to dust off our claret and blue cudgels and bat the Nazi clown and his band of automatons back up the motorway to horse-punching country.

2-1. I shall be at the game, watching through fingers held over my eyes. On top of that I have to buy a copy of H&V from Mr Woodhall. What a stressful evening!

We believe in you so take a chance on a couple of kooks hung-up on the Villa.

3 hours to go. Getting the feeling, reading recent posts, that some of you might not last that long!!!

My wife just took the pencils and underwear off me.

I'm feeling fine now. Really think we'll be right up for it and we'll put in a great performance. Just wish I was over to see the game.
