I spoke to Gary 'Bruno' Thompson last season and he said how nice it was to score those two goals for us and even more so that he beat Vince Overson to score both goals... He said what a thoroughly unpleasant individual he was and he almost took his face off for the first goal... Great day that was.... More of the same Sunday please! Up the Villa.

As a Villa fan living in London, does anyone know any pubs that will be showing the game tomorrow in South or North London? Thanks!

Other than the trivial matter of bragging rights, this is an important test for us. If we go a goal down do we capitulate as we have done or do we have the fight to keep going. A good result will add to the momentum and be huge confidence boost.

My biggest concern is Mike Dean, the most arrogant referee since David Ellerey.

Ayew, Kodjia and Adomah would rip their back line apart, they must start. If Baker carries on his form, doesn't get caught out and Chester leads like he has done, we'll fucking annihilate them.

The pressure is on us.  We should win but there again I say that every week.  Would I take a 0-0 now probably although would still be disappointed.  Hopefully Bruce will have us pumped up like he had them against us.

Can't afford to get nowt from Sunday and Brighton away. 3 points here and Blackburn home should take some pressure off going to Brighton.

I'd be reasonably happy with a point tomorrow and 3 points next week if that's what happens. I think we'll win tomorrow though.

If we limit the individual errors I can see us beating those lobotomized ****** 2-0.

I hate these games and just want it over with, preferably with 3 points. I can't bring myself to hate Blues fans as much as Birmingham United fans, or Liverpool, Arsenal etc. They're the real w##kers. My best mate at school was a Bluenose at a time the gulf in quality between the clubs was cavernous. Fair play to him sticking by them, the poor unfortunate web-toed twat.

we need someone to make Robinson lose his cool and get a red card.

Bloody hell, is he still playing?

SHA forum seems to think it will be Rhoys Wiggins at left back....whoever he is.

Generally I'd say my knowledge of football and players in the opposition ranks is above average (though not as good as it was 10-15 years ago).

Yet I look at their line up and I don't have a scooby.

Is that Donaldson fella related to O'Neill Donaldson? Genuinely no idea.

Some of the London Lions are apparently meeting at the Six Yard Box in Elephant & Castle. Sadly I am at a christening so won't be there.

the comedy gold is literally a full page post saying we are obsessed with them

oh and the fact they regularly sit in the holte and celebrate wildly

They haven't won at Villa Park since 2003 so god knows what it is they sit there celebrating.

Wasn't it 2004 when they won 2 1 they last won at VP? That game was awful, felt like we'd lost before a ball was kicked.

I'd forgotten about that one. In fact I still can't remember anything about it now.

I'd like to banish it from my thoughts. A dreadful game. I was sat in the Holte with my dad and best mate. There was a horrific fat woman chanting about Dwight Yorke, behind us. Something about Jordan, his son and I remember the line 'he's black, but we can't say that'. (Was he on the bench that day for them?) What a c u next Tuesday she was.

Anyway, a truly miserable day.

Let's do the crayon eating neanderthal bastards this weekend.

1-0 to us. Rudy.

Just checked...unused sub for them that day.

Cheers SoccerHQ!
