Aston Villa vs Crystal Palace Pre-Match Thread

I think thankfully this game may come too soon for Pardew to have an effect, if he even signs in time.

11 goals from 20 matches for me with Palace to snatch a late winner.

Happy New Year.

The problem is the new manager effect with all the players being up for impressing the new boss.

Possibly. We do unfortunately have the shitty habit of duly obliging a side in need of a win, and out of form players in need of a good performance or goals.

We really do need to start winning some games.

Winning is all a bit 2011. Drawing is the way sideways .
Oh I do love a Thursday 3pm kick off.

I agree with a lot of the teams being put out. However we are all dreaming. We know Gabby and Weimann play whatever the weather. We know Cleverley plays. We know he turns to Zog before Grealish and Bacuna. I'm going to be very intrigued what he does when westwood, cleverley, sanchez and delph are all available (provided delph hasn't left). I wouldn't be remotely surprised if Sanchez misses out.

It's been mentioned Cole is fit, is this true?

[silhillvilla]

Lamberts team will include Weimann cleverly CNZ and gabby
Just atrocious .

And only one of then signed by Paul, and he is on loan. When's Kozak back?

If we lose this the manager surely will walk.

Unfortunately, only as far as the car park, where he'll sit down, turn on the music and close between
The Cranberries - Zombie
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb
or
Grant Lee Buffalo - Demon Called Deception
when we all know that it should be.
Manic Street Preachers - I'm Not Working.

Anyway 0-0. He wouldn't want anything too noisy or boisterous to worsen the New Year's hangovers.

Need to instruct Clark and Sanchez to get booked so they miss Blackpool rather than a league game.

Don't the next set of suspensions go to ten bookings now we go into the new year?

Being the bestest fan in the universe, you haven't even read the Libor Kozak Injured thread? I'm shocked and disappointed.

WAIAWUM

Ah! Good point. Ignore my previous post.

PM the mods to see if I'm a WUM?

I await your retraction of that claim.

You'll get that retraction when we've scored 20 goals this season. So probably early May.
