Indeed, well done sir.
Oh, quelle journée au bas de la terre. Je suis très fatigué demain, Vera.

Played only 16 League games vs Wigsn. From October 2005 to March 2013.
Won 5 Drawn 6 Lost 5

As others have posted Home record at VP against them is dreadful.
Won only 1. Drawn 3. Lost 4 ! Goals, For 4: Against 11

Horses for courses so Wigan to end this season's unbeaten home run 1-2.


To complete the record at their place Villa have
Won 4 Drawn 3 Lost 1. Goals, For 14 Against 8.

All of those games were in their 'fairytale' era. They're very much in the 'morning after. I hope I didn't give her my number. I don't know which part of town I'm in and I've got nothing in my wallet' phase now.

When I see them at our Shit Men meeting next week I'll tell them that I hope they stay up, just like Dave O'Leary did.

I just don't think games against Wigan over a decade ago have any bearing on the odds for this match

And the games from less than a decade? The spectre of pudgy Shaun Maloney still looms large over both clubs.

It's games like this that we need to be winning. I'm going for 2-0. Kodjia and Adomah.

[CT]

As Steve Bruce didn't win Manager of the Month, we'll win this now. 1-0.

They'll bring 30 fans.

[adrenachrome]

It seems probable that those of us bootless and unhorsed who rely on public transport and Shanks's pony will get a fucking good drenching. Should have known this would be the case as H&V is on sale and Dave Dubya has upset the weather gods somehow in the past.

3-0 Kodjia, Adomah & Grealish to score.

I'd really like Tishbola to start please, Steve!

UTV!

Looks like Elphick will keep his place as Baker is still out (according to Express & Star) if anyone wants to alter their predicted score line

[Morleys left boot]

3-1 to us dont care who scores ,not sure about Elphick at all always a mistake in him ,never thought i would come to miss Baker in our defence,if we are going to get out of this league we need to put these kind of teams away without too many problems

[Clampy]

I've not been overly impressed with him so far but I reckon Elphick will eventually settle down and do a good job for us. We'd have sold Baker a long time ago if some fans had their way but now he's all of a sudden a miss for us.
