Aston Villa v Wigan Match Thread

Happy to see those changes, aside from Gardner but maybe he can score from a free kick before he is subbed at half time.

That's Oscar Borg in for Richards as the only difference between the match day squad and the facebook leak on the pre-match thread. interesting.

You thinking what I'm thinking? fingers crossed it's not an injury neither.

Caramac wasn't on it was he?

[Matt C]

Not exactly a massive endorsement for Richards given he can't even make the squad for this one unless he's got a move or (more likely) injured again.

Blimey 11 changes have no idea how they will line up

Bruce probably doesn't either.

[Mossie Hennebry]

To my shame, I've stuck a wee bet on Wigan at 3ish-1. In my defence, this could be seen as a positive in terms of Villa's prospects.

Not happy with that line-up! Be surprised if we get through tonight.....

Just checked Wigan's line-up from Saturday - They've also made 11 changes. Friday night's game more important and we ain't gonna win this Cup in my opinion, so I'm in favour of giving the kids a go and putting certain players in the ship window hopefully. Anyone know if McCormack's made it over the fence to the dressing room ?

Mossie, your naughty boy!!

[Malandro]

Shit, Max Power is playing.

Please desist from sullying the name of the world's finest confectionary by using it on that fat, useless turd.

[cheltenhamlion]

Of their team I have only heard of Will Grigg. And Luke Burgess, although he was a rugby player when I had heard of him....

[waynejames]

I put 25 sheets on this lot to win before the team was announced
Blimey...

I'm pleased that Wigan have done that. If they had taken this serious it could have been embarrassing. If we're still capable of being embarrassed, that is.

3-0 to Villa reserves!
