Aston Villa v Blackpool Match Thread.

[rjp]

I had tickets for this game but I couldn't get anyone to swap my standby shift at work so I'm on call until 8am.  I gave them to my brother in law and I'm feeling a bit guilty now.  It sounds like the kind of match that makes your eyes bleed.

Disappointing that Fylde haven't added to their lead after that bright start.
UPDATE: They're having a half time chocolate log though.

On a positive note we still have 11 players on the pitch.

Stephen Arthurworrey.  That's a Monty Python name surely?

Worst goalless spell I can remember was big Ron's first season but even that was only a ten game spell. This is something else. Sky said villa are incoherent and ponderous.

For now ...

Blackpool scouts were obviously at the Man U game.

just back in from a stroll around Bonn Old Town and caught up with the thread. I think that I'll have a nap rather than follow the second half

Middle name Roy.

Marvellous.

Natalie Sawyer's chest looks enormous on SSN just now.

I like Natalie. When I read your post I turned straight over from the Manure game for a gawp. I didn't even bother coming up with a lie to my old man as to why. "Bloke off the Villa web site said her tits were looking impressive."

Even they looked like a 0-0, mind.

I'm keeping an eye on the live prices, and if it is still 0-0 with ten minutes to go, I am going to sell one of my kidneys on the internet and lump the money raised on an away win.

I can just see it happening.

Betting on Aston Villa 0 is the closest thing you can get to free money these days.

Odds aren't so great but even so, I've turned £100 into £250 over Christmas and New Year.

Now I know why I've started to have so many siestas at 3pm recently

This team doesn't give me hope anymore so nothing is going to kill me.

Alan Wright has just said Joe Cole's  legs are starting to tire.....its just half time!!

Well at least he hasn't tripped over and ruptured himself.
