Aston Villa v Sheffield Wednesday - Pre Match Thread

[Marlon From Bearwood]

Bruce said in this mornings press conference that Forestieri could be a big threat tomorrow. Forestieri is suspended!

We all know Bruce is a lazy manager but that’s so amateurish it’s embarrassing.

All shits aside that is pure negligence of duty. Guys lost his head and I swear is now every week just trolling us while he waits for his pay off

[Drummond]

Unchanged line-up.

Another home win to 'shut-up the mad few' and Bruce hangs on a bit longer.

And I'll be happy because we've won again. And because the Mrs and in-laws will be happy we've beaten 'the pigs'.

I see them as being nicer than United, albeit their ground is more awkward to get to and they have a stupid fucking band.

Judging by his non performance at Hillsborough last season he is a threat by not playing as they may have someone decent in his place.

I think Bruce will play team that played Rotherham essentially as it's a home match maybe Adomah for El kazi

My memory may well be fading, but I had a couple of Wednesday supporting mates a long time ago, and I'm sure they referred to United as "the pigs". Unless they just both call each other that?

I saw this earlier and a friend of mine said I was being petty for being a little concerned about it. I don't know. To be honest, I think it's pretty embarrassing for a guy who big-ups himself about how many promotions he's won.

Problem is, you've got two days to actually game plan after a Tuesday nighter and you're preparing/basing your squad on a non-factor. Have some pride in your work for christs sake. Fail to prepare and prepare to fail.

They do. Quite odd.

Yes I agree Bruce will not change till it goes wrong or he is forced to do so because of reasons behind his control

I have seen some of the Man City thing and don't expect him to get the team to perform to that standard. However I do expect him to be professional and that was not. Maybe his time in Portugal while other managers were working with their non internationals messed his mind. Disgrace IMHO

[Skerra]

Listened to the whole interview. I think I've sussed it....SB probably gives the press the questions he wants them to ask!!
There are never any searching questions. Not one difficult question to answer.

[Bad English]

I'm worried about this one. That Forestieri is going to take us apart.

If Forestieri scores against us today and we end up losing, I expect Bruce to be sacked and a complete root and branch overall of the coaching staff to take place.
