The A14 is fine at the weekends just completely broken weekday mornings and evenings Cambridge<->Huntingdon.
It's normally an hour and forty minutes from here to Villa Park - it's not like getting to Norwich ...

My lad and I would love to see Villa play at the Abbey Stadium though I share Brian's concerns that we might struggle.
I'd never live it down round here if we lost to them ... Yeah, you're right - No Thanks!

To beat the winner out of the Millwall v Bradford game would be a good way of exorcising the ghost.

Rochdale away please... New ground.
I've been there. I saw Cyril Smith on the way to the ground.

Also been there.  Went to watch them play Shrewsbury randomly in a box with work.

Preston away please.  New ground for me, and easy to get too from Manchester.

I don't want us to play Blues, we don't need to play them.

Right now I can't see any other quick fix to pumping some much needed life into the club other than Lambert being sacked. Obviously I'd prefer the latter but a home game against the Rags would see a full Villa Park (assuming the Knuckledraggers could sell their lot), everybody up for it and a real buzz around the place.

The alternative is we go again against some other team, a trip to Stoke or a home game against Ipswich or Southampton, it's all very meh with Paul Lambert's Villa. Right now I can honestly say I've never been so bored with the Villa. We need something to wake us all up from this mind numbing season. That's how far we've fallen.

Honestly struggling to think of anything worse than SHA at home in the next round.
Smethwick I could accept , home or away or Wolves (are they still in ?).
