Aston Villa vs Birmingham City Pre-Match Thread

Tait is pulling the same face he did at the Clements post game in 2010 just before he dived behind the bar as it was turned over.

It never gets old seeing Cooper and Greaves making twats of themselves. That Greaves stuff is up there with Jonathan "I don't understand goal line technology" Pearce. Comedy gold.

Was he in full 'Priscilla Queen Of The Desert' drag queen mode at the time? 

[PeterWithesShin]

Dunno what you mean *whistles innocently*

[KRS]

Pure genius comedy by Greaves...its almost as if he actually believes what he's saying. Oh wait...

Bob Hall hit the nail on the head there in '93. SHA were missing then renowned superstars like Andy Saville and Pesky Solido. Phew, we got away with that one! As for Greaves, he was always a shit pundit.

Incredible to see the referee being asked to explain the main talking points of that game with the presenter, Newbon. That was never a common feature of post-match analysis in the past, was it?

This is a match against a poor Championship side. Why does it deserve a thread so many weeks in advance?

Yep. Have heard today that we're meant to be scared cos they're gonna infiltrate our end like they we're gonna in 2003.

They really are ******. Embarrassing.

[PeterWithe]

The infiltration of our end has, thus far, consisted of two blokes who where bounced out of the WL and are still probably rubbing the bumps on their scalps.

I can't say I have too much sympathy, even the muggiest of noses I know thought they would be able to do what they wanted at VP. They have pretty much kept they're heads down since then.

[shirley_villan]

I pointed that out but I suppose 12 years is a long time!

I wonder if the Mail will try and stir it up pre-game with more Zulus in the Holte nonsense?

I'd say don't give them ideas, but they've probably been working on that and similar bollocks since about 11pm on Tuesday night.

Surely you meant Pesky Soldadildo.

Because as you point out they are a poor championship side. Who are skint. Who won't go far in any cup in the near future. So we won't be meeting them very often.

Which is nice.
