Aston Villa vs Queens Park Rangers Pre-Match Thread [POSTPONED]

[Bad English]

Saturday 3rd March. 15:00 hrs. Villa Park.

Rearranged for Tuesday 13th March. 7.45pm.

Their away form is not the greatest. 7 points in the last ten. Their overall form is mediocre too: 12 points in ten home and away.

We have taken 21 points at home in the last ten games, and 25 points home and away.

3-1 to us.

[Jon Crofts]

We’ll fuck the hoopy fuckers.

[villabear]

We’re probably still not a big club according to little goblin man. A win, hopefully without much fuss.

2-0

Got to be looking to win this. Their away form is poor, although they did give Wolves a scare in the last ten.

They've just been hammered 5-2 at home to Forest as well so they're not high in confidence you'd think.

Fingers crossed Grealish is back at least.

My prediction : Aston Villa P-P QPR (Snow)

My prediction : Aston Villa P-P QPR (Snow)

Pools panel home win.

3-1 up going into the last twenty minutes would be nice but a 2-1 win is more likely. My main memories of them are a Steve McMahon screamer at Villa Park on Boxing Day 1983, Beelzebub's hatrick and our 4-1 win against them on the first day of the season in the BFR days. Oh, and getting to Loftus Road in the SGT days only to find out the game was called off.

[Axl Rose]

1-0 to them. Kevin Gallen.

In a more realistic world, 5-1 to us.

My main memories of them are beating QPR at home early on in the 1992/93 season. Superb individual goal from Dalian. And obviously the following season, smashing them 4-1 on the opening day. Andy Townsend's debut, and a couple of screamers from Dalian and Staunton.
It was the first match that the Old Witton Lane was transformed into the two tier stand we know today. It was bloody boiling!!!

Have we got the Ref paid and on our side ?

[fbriai]

Was a great day that!

[cheltenhamlion]

The ref, the assessor, the FA. Just waiting to hear back whether Gollum has accepted our offer.

[fbriai]

A repeat of the 5-2 against them in the 84/85 season wouldn't go amiss either.

Will be interesting selection.  Rush Grealish & Albert back or play safe and be confident we can beat them with what we have?  Tough call.  As it's QPR I may be inclined to give them another week to give them the best possible chance of being fully fit for the rest of the season. 

I'd really like to see O'Hare in the squad, but clearly Bruce doesn't have confidence in him for some reason.  Surely Onomah has now had his chance and will be bench at best?

I'd go with Grabban on the left and Davis upfront. They terrorised Wednesday in the last twenty minutes.
