Anything less than a win is an awful result. Blackburn are in the relegation zone after all.

[Legion]

Just watch us Villa it all up and get that thrashing that we've been waiting for all season.

refreshing to enjoy goals going in. Can you imagine what it'd be like if The Shit are losing and Blackburn score a last gasp winner? We'll give them a celebration they won't have seen since Anfield in the mid 90s.

Very much this. From London, I appear to be going through every Northern mill town at some point on a nine hour train jaunt. And I honestly don't care whether we win or not. I'd happily take a 4-3 either way.

There's a thread over on SHA titled 'Up the Villa!'. I want us to lose even more now.

It's hilarious. There can't be another club in the country that hate their local rivals as much as they hate us. They live and breath claret and blue.

If there was no small heath we'd carry on exactly the same apart from there being a bit less to laugh at in the world. If there was no Aston Villa they'd be lost. They'd have no reason to wake up, no purpose to their lives. Some of them obsess more about Villa than I do.

This has goal less draw all over it I think Blackburn will go down which is a shame but the silver lining for them will be the end of the Venkys

[frank black]

That SHA thread is worth a visit, from a rubbernecking viewpoint.

There are folks that would rather see their team relegated than want us to win.

Just saw Mowbray on the SSN. Didn't know he was Blackburn manager so we just CAN NOT lose to a team managed by this man. 2-0 to us.

[QuintonVilla]

6500 heading up there, plus any pay on the day sales.

[nigel]

Kodjia will want to post a 20 goal season, so he'll certainly looking to score.
I want us to win and blues can sink their own ship by losing their remaining games.

Bruce said 8k expected in the away end today.

Is that correct???

No. Maximum allocation is 6900, we've sold 6500.
