Wolves v Aston Villa Pre-Match thread

Heart says 2-2. Head says probably 3-1 to them. I hope not, brother is a Wolves fan - it'll be endless ribbing...

Sorry but I'd disown him.

[Drummond]

1-2

[darren woolley]

We need a win to keep our promotion charge going so why not I'm going 2-1 to us.

[Risso]

A hat trick of 2-1 predictions.  Kodj and Albert for us, some random Dingle for them.

[Jimbo]

A fifth win on the slap, and an away win at that? Against the second team in the league? In a derby? On telly? Hmmm. Doesn't sound very Villa, does it?

If we win I'll consider that corner well and truly turned. I just can't see it, though. 2:0 to the dogheads.

1-2 Fuck the Dingles

[Brend'Watkins]

Their pace up top might be our undoing.  Still, we have goals in us now so we'll give them problems.  I'd take the draw now.

Might be wrong but I don't think we've lost to Wolves in a televised game.

These three games this month are so important. However I can't see us winning this one. We'll go down 1-0.

Last season.

I think last time we won 5 league games on the trot was in the 97-98 season. So the odds of achieving that again are very much against us. If they are at their best, 2-1 Wolves.

Lose this one and i wont be able to show my face in the local for the next month or two.

You wouldn't believe how jumped up all the local dogheads have been of late. You'd think they were Barcelona, i'm not kidding.

It's as if they've won the league and are awaiting being crowned Champions of Europe. Absolute fuckiwts.

About 5% have been to watch an actual match in the last 20 years of course ...

It's their midfield that concerns me more.

[Axl Rose]

An exhilarating 3-3 draw.

[Hookeysmith]

Terry will be fully rested as will Whelan and Hourianne as neither had any game time.

The game hinges on 2 issues

1. The troublesome LB slot - either of Hutton or Bjork will really weaken us - even though only a kid we should put Clark there or DeLaet who is used to that role
2. Bruce's mentality. If he goes to sit back and soak up then we could be in trouble - I really think the best way to nullify their attack is to make them worry about ours more.

The most important thing for me is that over the recent turn up in results I am really looking forward to this game - really make a change from being a chore.

Queue a miserable defeat
