The Famous Aston Villa vs Everton Pre-Match Thread

First time post. Age 53 (going on 35) with claret & blue blood coursing through my veins. Will be making the pilgrimage to Villa Park tomorrow to exercise my vocal chords for the first time since pummelling Sunderland 6-1 due to a stint overseas & “domestic restrictions”  (she's gone now so hope to be there more often !)  Will be sitting in the Holte roughly where I stood as a lad for many years - can't wait !  Expecting a 2-0 win after a nervy start. Unfortunately I'll be going on my own so just wondered if any of you fine upstanding gents (or ladies?) can recommend a good place with a bit of friendly banter for a pre-match aperitiff ? Just to settle the nerves !

Villa tavern is decent mate top of Holborn hill

Welcome.

Bartons or Sacred Heart. No paying to get in etc and Bartons does real ale if that's your thing. Or if you want a sing song there is always the Ads.

The walk up to VP should show it in all it's splendour. The sun shining, the cherry blossom in full bloom and a high 30,000 crowd full of expectancy. It will be a good day, I feel it.

BBC has decreed that 'Villa were unlucky to lose at Man City'. No we weren't. We conceded 3 shite goals due to pub league defending. We have to beat Everton because we have failed to win almost every other must win game.

Welcome aboard, if your last game was the 6-1; hopefully that means you're our good luck charm - If we win I'll be buying you a season ticket!

Now you can't get out of it by editing your post. Unless you buy me one instead.

Welcome Steadfast!
Have a great day, bring us a bit of much needed luck and 3 points, and get yer arse down to VP more often!

Come on you Villa boys!

This one is a bit scary.  A few weeks ago I was thinking it was one we could definetly win, but now they seem to have hit a good run of form, and on their day could really dominate us.  I also think that the way we lost last week might have knocked the stuffing out of us a bit.  But if we play like that again here then we should be getting something, hopefully a must needed win.  Having said that I will go for a draw

I think Timeh will have them up for this & last week's result won't affect them. He seems to be a top class motivator/man manager.

Steadfast..lived just outside Hereford for 3 years and did my fuckin head in... Villa park is now great again after some years of being lost in the wilderness.. You'll love the place again as we all did in years gone by.

At the back as Hutton is fit I suspect he will now go with Given Hutton Senderos Vlaar Cissokho.

And Kozak up front?

If the linesman gets it right, then we only concede two saft goals and win the game. Very fine margins in a game we dominated for 70 minutes at a place that Bayern Munich and Barcelona are usually only capable of.

Fuck the whining scouse fuckers.
