Sunderland v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[damon loves JT]

It's time to tie on the hachimaki headband, open the throttle and nosedive out of the sun at the flaming deck of the USS Sunderland.

Ten thousand years of happiness!

4-3 Villa

[Nastylee]

If Benteke and Vlaar return and are actually somewhere near being fit then we can do 'em. Otherwise, more disappointment and head scratching, and a slim hope that RL will supply some meaningful money.

A 2-2 draw, probably enough to confirm the rot duly stopped but not enough to dispel the worries overall.

Agbolahor and Clark for us.

[Dave Cooper please]

I reckon correcting the spelling mistake on the orange dot could be the start of the turnaround.

The grammar Gods hate us and are exacting their revenge.

Great poll by the way.

Clark is suspended.

[WALTERS WARRIORS]

We really cannot get any worse. If Benteke and Vlaar are 90% fit and with Gabby back, think we can nick a 0-1 win .....

[Tugby Villain]

0-0. Lambert 'won't be able to fault the effort'.

[Monty]

I wonder how much of the ball we'll have. I'm guessing low 30s%.

The guy on MOTD on Saturday said he wasn't worried about the Villa, so that's good enough for me. No agenda. He reckons PL and the lads will be safe and then some.
I liked him.

Danny Murphy.

Yep, him. I've always thought he was a good judge of a team.
On Eastie's point, I like her as a presenter as well, she does her homework.

[silhillvilla]

Quite like Danny Murphy, calm and talks sense. Similar to Pat Nevin.

[Toronto Villa]

Villa win is what I've gone for. Anyone who has chosen options two or three on the poll should be ashamed of themselves.

Yeah, but Eastie was talking about her sexy appearance. What do you think of that?
