Aston Villa vs Cardiff City Pre Match Thread

[PeterWithe]

Well with us bottling it over the last few weeks the pressure is off so we’ll win.

I’m going 3-1

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Another defeat. They will kick the crap out of us too.

Yeah. That is the fear. I very much doubt there will be 22 players left on the pitch after 90 minutes.

When we beat Cardiff at home last season Grealish was deliberately targeted and fouled time and time again. And then Warnock had the nerve to complain about Grealish "shouting at the referee to get players booked"

Yup, no matter how you look at it, Warnock is a twat. I'm sure even the Cardiff fans realise it.

yeah get your drift meanwood . i think the difference from both sides is that we are not expected to be in this position whilst you are . to me even it is play offs for AV surely you should be looking to finish strong come what may .  oh well that's my work done for the evening nerves kicking in now . hope the roads aren't too bad for late afternoon tomorrow that M5 can be a nightmare on times .

If you have a spare seat, can you take Taylor with you?

I live in Clent where I know around 10 Viilla supporters, and I spend around half of my time in Shenley Green, where the aged parent resides, and I know another 15 or so around there. None of them are going, and several are not watching on the box even though have Sky access.

The Norwich game has taken a considerable toll.

On the plus side, most of our impressive performances have been followed by mediocrity; you can see it graphically if you are so inclined. So a big performance can come out of nowhere.

Hope so. We need to knock the stuffing out of their automatic hopes, give them a reason to fear us in the playoffs.

[ROBBO]

 The game is on Bein sport over here I usually get up to watch it live but havn't seen Villa play well on tele for ages so might record it and read the reports first.

[Axl Rose]

we sold out our allocation after only 48 hours of going on sale 2 weeks ago .  would have been nice to give us at least another 1,000 tickets as we gave you close to 5,000 earlier in the season HQ . Think it's going to be hell of an atmosphere tomorrow night can't wait .

D_C we don't give anyone 5000 and even if we had offered 5000 your owners would have baulked at that as away club have to pay for the tickets asked  they are not sale or return. On the other hand we have sold as many as given.
Anyway good luck but we will beat you.

Haha. You're alot more confident than I am, mate. It's been absolutely dreadful recently, football and results-wise.

It fascinates me that people can just stop supporting when things go wrong with the team when result, performance or both don’t happen. Like turning the cold tap on. I just can’t do this.
Mind you my glass is always half full!

I think their might be a decent atmosphere as I can see Colin sending them out the kick us off the park.

[Deano's Mullet]

Two teams trying to avoid defeat. 0-0

[Abbeyfealeavfc]

Come on Villa boys, let's win this one. Having only lost 2 at home in the league all season, with the players we've got, we need to maintain our home form, if we're to stand any chance in the playoffs. We need a boost against this shower of sh-t and Colin w-nker, to give us an edge if we meet them in the playoffs. Losing 2nd to Fulham, could destroy them, so let's play our part in achieving this. Nobody has done the double over us, I certainly don't want this anti-football excuse of a team to be the first. We need a strong referee tonight to counter Colin's thuggish tactics! UTV!

No, nor do I. Mind you, the people on here claiming not to care about tonight's game or giving 'zero fucks' deep down do or they wouldn't be logging on to a forum to tell people and let's face it, they'll be no doubt voicing their approval/disapproval after the game.

They battered us in the first game, it was only thanks to Johnstone who kept the score down. No idea how this one is going to go but i'll say 2-2. Grabban and Kodjia with ours and Cardiff to miss another penalty.

[postal]

we'll score first on the way to a 2-1 defeat. Grabben just has to start, to give us something

We have been out played and tactically wanting since Wolves.

I cant think of anything positive atm, and I normally can find some ray of light somewhere.

Ok, here's the only smile I can find.

Han Solo Kodjia: Promotion? Jeez, I'm out of it for a little while, everyone gets delusions of grandeur!

[Three Spires Villa]

2-1 to us

[Boz]

Another defeat. They will kick the crap out of us too.

Yup, no matter how you look at it, Warnock is a twat. I'm sure even the Cardiff fans realise it.

But is he a bigger twat than Bruce, who didn't seem to accept any responsibility for the Norwich defeat.
