Aston Villa v Newcastle United Pre-Match Thread

[Can Gana Be Bettered!?!?]

A win.

A clean sheet.

We go home happy.

7 points should be the targets from this, Norwich and Hull away. Think it's achieveable and we can also  nick a point off Man. City. That would represent a strong start to the season.

home banker of the season.

3-1 home win. benteke weimann and gabby to tear them a fresh ring piece then we go again!!

The greatest danger is over confidence, complacency, otherwise we have a better squad/manager/individual players, and we should win all three.
Methinks Mr Lambert wont tolerate the above, but its a worry.

2-1 Villa win

I think this is an important game. Both teams will be looking to get something from this game. I think we will win 3-1

Sod that, I expect 7 points just from the Newcastle game. I expect the ref to award us the bonus points for our masterclass performance and relegate Newcastle on the spot for the crime of being Newcastle.

Roll on the game!
