I am not bothered by the game this weekend, the same as I wouldn't have been bothered to get excited about playing Bradford in the 3rd round of the League Cup for instance, or Blackburn for the 100th time in a few years. The fact the later two were semi-finals helped.I want to win the cup, but I cannot say my heart will be racing with excitement at the prospect of going on Saturday.
The FA Cup is our only chance of winning anything this year. I am disappointed that the Manager does not seem to accept that. Anyway, let's hope we get through so we can look at the diminishing numbers of people who think it is not worth playing for, as each round passes.
If the fa cup is something we could do without then its disappointing - the cup used to be the trophy that excited so many and is still the trophy I yearn for .I expected to see us field a weakened side against Sheffield in any case , as we have a few games in a short time but surely a club like villa should aspire to try and win trophies like this - not see it as some kind of hindrance to the premier season .
HAVE WE GOT A STRONG SIDE THEN
Why the hell lambert and who ever at villa draw up a list of the twats who are detrimental to the villa like Tom Ross radio wm radio blue nose etc etc and tell them they to do one like fergie did to the bbc. Jesus Christ all they are looking for is to get a headline to promote themselves again and again.
Looking at the potential injury news from another thread I dare say he was probably not having his best day when asked the question.
