The key for me is McGinn

Surely he cannot be as quiet and subdued as he was on Saturday. I think there will be another sending off - just hope its one of their losing their head and not ours

Let's hope McGinn's greater prominence tonight does not involve being sent off.

Counter attacking game will suit him tonight. Was superb in this fixture earlier in the season.

Even my best friend who I've known since 1976 had to comment on FB that they were up against it because of Grealish diving and a dodgy ref ! Hope our friendship survives tonight.......

It would be funny if we were losing 1-0 until the 90th minute and then Jack dives and we are awarded a penalty and we nick a draw.

I just go along with these sorts of things. No point arguing.

Best case scenario - we go 2-0 up within the first half, they go all out 2nd half and dont get a sniff. Fans turn on players and Shan.

Worst case scenario - we go 1-0 down and lose on penalties.

Ha! It was the first Portuguese I ever learnt when drinking in Bairro Alto during Euro 2004. Full teaching credit goes to the lovely Dora, and I remember it as if it was yesterday!

Do you mean Birmingham town centre or like most Villa fans do you class town as Cannock, Tamworth, Sutton, Redditch, Leamington or Tenbury Wells? ;)

How well did you get to know Dora? Was it well enough to explore her?

Are we all going to have a guess at how many pages the Albion/Villa match thread will reach on Small Heath Alliance tonight? Double figures easily.

"Terrible team given all that money spent" if we're losing, "jammy spawny fannies" and "cheating diving greasy" if we're winning.
