Aston Villa vs Blackburn Rovers pre-Match thread

Compete for every ball. Win no matter how. Nothing big headed.

[Villa Lew]

Villa win and another clean sheet 2-0.

UP THE VILLA

[Legion]

1-1

5-0 Villa win.

Rovers are crap away and have conceded 16 in their last 5 away games. They all seem pretty resigned to a hammering on the Rovers forums. Lovely comment about Sid (who also played for them) on there though:

Never seen 25 and 30 yard passes with so much backspin before or since. Balls hit so they stopped in the path of the winger.

[Bad English]

3-1. We continue our unlikely quest for play-off glory.

And they could buy whoever they wanted at that time.

Win, win, win, please Villa win, I am starting to believe 👍

And he was quite a way past his best, but still looked like their best midfielder.

Coming up to this one with a friend who's a Rovers fan, so id advise the gamblers to lump on a nil nil.

On a side note, last time I was up, I ate in the Caribbean place by New St, Turtle Bay, are there any recommended independent Caribbean places central for a sit down ?

Heard good things about 24 Carat Bistro in the Jewellery Quarter.

Devon House is the other in the JQ that's been recommended.

Massive game.
Eight cup finals, eleven cup finals potentially.
Every one of them a banana skin of two halves.

When SHA played Millwall not long ago, I told a Blue Nose mate that it was an 18 pointer, anticipating a 12 point deduction for financial shenanigans.

A lot of things would have to go wrong for us not to get a result in this one.

Nice one Rudy, I'm staying in the Jewellery quarter as it goes.

[Axl Rose]

3-1 to us.
