Wigan Athletic v Aston Villa - Pre Match Thread

[peter w]

if we win the next two or three I'd leave him on the bench and concentrate on getting him up and running for next season. With his injury record there's no point throwing into games where there is nothing on it. We're 6 points or so from mid table comfortableness so lets just leave him for this season.

Is Nil Lamptey fit for this one? Hopefully BFR will play him at some stage.

On the basis that things have been going better since I left the country we should cruise this, 0-7/8 at least.  Will be watching in cochin!!

Make sure you get your Cochin badges while you are there

I imagine Blues fans will be supporting us this weekend, as it's in their best interests 😏

Of course not.
They  would rather 'da Vile' lost in any circumstance, even at cost to their own shit.

I know, we give them meaning in their lives

Looks like The Beard will be playing CB tomorrow

Looking forward to a proper pie by the Station at Dewhursts, followed by some scoops. 

As for the match, if we can't win this one away then the players really do need their arses kicking.  Saying that we are Villa so take nothing for granted

I went to both of those games.  I'd just moved to Wigan and lived about 5 minutes away from their old Springfield Park ground.  I was convinced that Lamptey was going to be, if not the new Pele, then certainly the new Tony Daley.

Normally a game me and VCTM jnr would be attending but things aren't great at the minute - I am currently struggling with my health and am unemployed whilst junior is recovering after taking a hiding in Seaforth following the big fight two weeks ago !!
I hope you and the other 4.5K Villa fans have something to sing about .

PS - Risso - I would have liked to have met up tomorrow but the above info alludes to the reason for my absence from a "local game"

Cheers lads !
