West Ham have sold out their 3000. Fair play to them.

Looking on the OS, should be a good crowd generally. The Holte and The North are virtually full.

I don't think it will be far off 40k.

A guy I work with is taking his family of six on a four-hour round trip to the game. Not a single Villa fan amongst them, just fancied a boxing day trip to the football.

Who knows, maybe a rare good performance might bring in a new young supporter or two.


They must have really pissed him off this year.

3-1 Villa win.

Back to the old tradition of beating West Ham at Villa Park on Boxing Day.

I won't be there. 8-0 to us in the performance of the century.

No Leeg, no Mr Shin, no SligoTom. Victory is guaranteed

No me either.

We're due a win and a good performance at Villa Park, I have a strange feeling we'll get both.

3-1

Merry Christmas one and all, the Bells will be ringing for the Claret & Blue again, the real ones not the stealers!

UTV!

I'd stick with the same starting line up as last week. I'm not a fan of Westwood but having him in there let Veretout and also at times Gana push forward a bit more and we looked good with it, well in the second half anyway.

I'm encouraged after the fight & effort in the second half at Newcastle. I think we'll get that second win. 1-0 to the Villa.
