Aston Villa vs Manchester United Pre-Match Thread

[Mister E]

Can't shake the feeling that with Vlaar back we'll go 5-3-2.

I agree. Gabby to come on and run at them with 20 minutes to go to protect our two goal lead for once. Clark sitting in front of the other two centrebacks with the job of bringing the ball out of defence.

Anyone else worried we're gonna get thrashed today?

No. Draw at worst.

It wunt me mate.
Honest.


 
Coincidence?

Tell me what you mean and I will reply?

Reference to PWS's comment about the Holte being knocked down...
...it's okay mate, not worth it.

Attack, attack, attack attack attack!

I don't think they'll thrash us. I think it will be another heartbreaking loss where they come from behind and score the winner in the last minute and their plastic touristy fans are allowed to run in the playing area.

Totally agree. Was discussing this with my Man U supporting boss the other day. Told him that whatever happens they will win. For example we could batter them for 85 mins and then fall to a sucker punch at the death. He sniggered smugly at the concept of us battering Man U.

William Hill offering 8/13 for a Man U win.

Anyone know whether you have to pay to get into the Holte pub, or the suite under the Holte end? Im not a season ticket holder

Also Do you have to pay to get in the Aston Tavern

Forget about blues and boing boing baggies, this club is the real scum.

Beat them Villa, please.

Couldnt agree more,Id rather lose to Blues and Baggies than this lot.

Not a chance. Man Utd are 100 miles or so away, and a defeat against Small Heath sticks in the throat more than any other defeat for me.

Yes but you are in the Midlands world where Villa are still the top club amongst the dross. Outside that area we are viewed as another one of the smaller clubs who make up the numbers and are there to be cannon fodder to their superstars.

Agreed sh...would love to wipe the smugness from ManU faces, but I'm still hurting from last Saturday's result...and to lose to THEM is just unthinkable!

[saunders_heroes]

2-1 to the Villa today. Merry Christmas.

Anyone can get into the Holte Suite for free at halftime, there's a door in the bottom left corner of the Holte (as you face from the outside) and they let in something like 500 people from the concourse.

You wouldn't be surprised to know that I didn't see a single Yanited coach on the way down south.
