He should have been banned for life after this.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Bramall_Lane

I was at that game. The man's a disgrace and he caused crowd to ruble outside after the game as he'd whipped the Sheffield United fans up.

What were you doing there?!

I was hoping to see the Albion get beat. An odd day as in the pub before hand a four foot something local came in dressed like a cow boy and nobody batted an eye lid.

I didn't know David Sullivan was from Sheffield.

1-1 for me.
Although I have a lot of optimism in how things are going, I still think that wins are slightly out of reach and come more through luck (good on ours, bad on theirs) than actually doing the biz all the way to the end. Happy with another draw though, things could be a lot worse.

Albert up against Joe Bennett. Could be interesting.

Looking forward to this. If we can pick up where we finished off last week it could be fun. For he first time in what seems like ages we have a a squad that gives the manager decisions to make.

I'd have been a lot more confident had Colin not taken over the Cardiff reigns, but I'm still expecting us to edge it & snaffle all the points.

So my (hopeful) prediction is...   Villa 2: 1 Cardiff

UTV!

With a tricky December (on paper at least) in store think this one we need to target to win.  Think it will be tougher with Warnock now in charge of them, but I think we should do it.  Will go for a 2-0 win.  2 from Kodja.

Ayew in for Gabby, Grealish for Gardner otherwise unchanged. I wonder/worry about the two man midfield.
