Aston Villa vs Millwall Pre-Match Thread

[Mister E]

Hogan and Flabby possibly available for tomorrow: gives us at least a litle flexibility up front if the boy is struggling ...

Big decision - risk driving or travelling on a train full of Millwall fans!

Either way could end in injury! I'm driving....

At the rate it has been going in Stourbridge I will be arriving via a Husky team.

We will give them a good doings.

Our support will be frozen into a block of solid ice and will have to move and make noise just to stay breathing. The players won't want to be hanging around fanny dangling either

A brutal 4-1 victory in horizontal sleet. 

Shiver!

Would it be wrong of me to hope that the game gets called off?

I'm thinking the same.  We don't freeze and our tired players get a welcome rest.

Not for me.

We already playing catch up with the top 2. We don't want to drop further away, giving them more of a mental edge, and us scrabbling to catch up.

Plus, later in the season, we will have people complaining about us having this play too many games in a short space of time.

We don't need anymore excuses not to go up this season.

Just win. Scrappy, don't care.

Hogan & Gabby back in training according to Bruce. Good news regardless of what you think of their Villa form. More options can only be good at the moment.

Scooby does though

Planning to come up from London for the game tomorrow. For anyone in Brum today  - given the weather and forecast do you think there is a risk the game will be off? And would you say its safer to take a train than drive?

Work in town and been out there tonight.  Roads are fine if there isn't any further snow (which isn't forecast), so you should be OK.

What's the weather like down in Birmingham at the moment?

Freezing cold and light cloud with patches of blue sky. Snow on the ground still but roads reported to be ok.

[Holte132]

Snowing in Burntwood.

Thanks Chris.

There was a flurry of snow in the north of the city this morning mate but it has cleared up now.  Been out and about this morning and the main roads are fine.

Flexibility possibly, goals? Doubtful.

It's snowing albeit flakes around city centre so I assume Aston as well. There will not be enough snow to disrupt anything however icy conditions on top of last night's flurry  do present a bit of risk.
