This really needs to be a win.

Last night will help on Saturday. I would've been dreading it but a win, whoever it's against works wonders and I think we will see a positive atmosphere.

2-0

Villa being shit at Christmas is as traditional as turkey and hangovers.

Agonising 1-2 and everyone miserable over the festive period, as usual.

Can see this being a frustrating 90 minutes where we have a couple of big chances in a nervy game but have to settle for a 1-1 draw.

Yes but what about Matt Le Tissier sneaking one in?

Didn't that happen before or something similar....a Dean Richards (RIP) header giving Southampton a 1-0 win at a sparsely populated VP, circa 1999 just before Christmas? During one of Gregory's turgid phases if memory recalls.
