Aston Villa vs AFC Bournemouth pre match thread

[Border villan]

Cobs = crusty. Baps = soft rolls, usually covered in flour. That's right isn't it?

Someone needs to post a photo of these cobs in the match thread...

I am confident no one will be immature and/or childish and ask about photos of baps.

Pretty nervous about this one. To me, Spuds was a free shot. If we're going to be okay this season, this is exactly the game we need to win.

Bournemouth probably think the same.

I’m actually quite nervous for the first time in a long time. I hope we win, but I hope we put in a good performance and if we don’t win that performance will be key. Plenty shots please Wes.

Well I am not nmervous. We are either good enough for this League or we are not. If we lose it will indicate that we need to do more and I would rather have that now then in April.

I took one of my lad's down to VP earlier.....looks fantastic, best it has looked for years. I won't spoil it by divulging anything but note Football Focus is live from there tomorrow in case you want to record it...

?

Edit: They will be there a bit later in the show. 👍

That’s my understanding too.

Correct. I look forward to your reports.

Real men eat cobs and baps are something that women have.

[Bad English]

Kiosk map from Pravda:

They’ve had a couple of tries at ‘confectionery’ 

Jesus wept!
Can somebody who is a Brummie and not a shire-dwelling aristocrat have a look at the 'cobs' and make sure they are not, in fact, 'baps'. That would be outrageous.

That will be me a real number 8 bus route dweller. I will have a good look and report back a bit later today.

Cheers our kid!

Bournemouth probably think the same.

They probably thought the same about Sheffield United at home, too.

Not much of a feature on Football Focus

It's like a comfort blanket. No matter how things in the outside world are, there's always solace to be had in a H&V round bread discussion.

I'm a soft baps, crusty cobs man, by and large. BUT, should it be of simple filling (ham, cheese, maybe cheese & onion for those that have travelled) wrapped in clingfilm behind the bar of the pub, always a cob.

Villa to win..both teams to score. A fraction  under 7/2.
