Just watched the shit show of this fixture from March ‘87 with 12,000 odd there, Falco for them, Steve Hunt for us. Think that’s about the best we’re gonna get. Similarities - it was a night game, they had an horrible No 9 who always seemed to score against us, we had no strikers - well Stainrod and Andy Gray a second time around.Come on Villa. 2-0 please.

I know that's the likely team but would that be three games in 10 days for Drinky? After his long stint of inactivity I think he would be at huge risk of a muscle injury.
Bookies have this closer than the Brighton match and they fkd up last time thankfully. For this one it’s Watford $2.40, Villa $2.80 and a draw $3.30. I’m hoping for a Villa win, whether it happens, we’ll see. Probably watch it on the train to work. Sucks cos if we win, I’ll be buzzing, if we lose just puts a downer on the day. And we lose more than we win these days. 3 pts would be most welcome. Come on Villa!
