Blackburn was our best shot at actually getting to the final. That chance now seems far less likely.I am happy some fellow Villa fans are enjoying the prospect of playing against a far more expensive side and I hope we win, but I don't think we will. Our form and current players just can't hack it. The unbearable Liverpool love in from the media will make losing even worse.
Sorry to interrupt, but what are Turkey Twizzlers when they are at home? They sound like something invented by Roald Dahl.

We've got a first eleven that can beat anyone on their day. We've had a shite season, yes, but we can win the Semi.

Just the grinding pain of the past few years has conditioned me to believe nothing good happens to our club.Maybe self defence? I dunno. But yeah, I think we will lose but hope we won't.
