Ads you always have your defence left to right and midfield and attack the other way around. Please be consistent 😉

I thought we wore white and black?

Correct. Sorry.

We will win 3 or 4-0 and it’ll do nothing for our expectation for the season. Beat Stoke on Thursday and it’ll sky rocket even more! Luckily we have Liverpool and Leicester after that.

This is a game we nearly always lose both literally away to Fulham, but also if a newly promoted club need a win over last few years, enter Villa.
Also As someone else posted they will be targeting this one as one of their ‘must wins’.
Hoping villa change all this round. They’ll start strong I imagine, we weather the storm and hopefully knock stuffing out of them 2-0. Traore must start for me with Trez on bench, same team otherwise.

I vaguely remember that. It was shown as a clip on an olde edition of MOTD. Black n white for all the kids. Fulham were in black and white and we were in black and white.

Whisper it quietly but it's a common misconception due to the BBC commentator that day pointing out that "and for those of you who are watching in black and white, Aston Villa are in claret and blue".

It's going to be a tough game.

That Knockaert always seems to have a blinder against us then vanishes back into obscurity. We need to keep him and Onomah under wraps.

I’ve a good mate here who follows Fulham. We’ve agreed to maintain radio silence until 10.00 for the match to be watched in peace. I’m staying away from social media til after then too.

A win would really set up the season nicely.

I've been saying that for years. Still waiting. I don't count the 6-1 vs Sunderland that never happened.
Did Norwich away not count then?

Fulham are favourites to go down and haven’t won a game yet
that means they will be desperate for points tonight

this is a game we must go out to win
a good performance and 3 points would be massive for us and totally doable

a loss or a bad performance and a streaky draw and all the old insecurities will return
well they will in my mind anyway

0-2 Watkins & Target is my prediction

Aston Villa 7 (seven) does have a ring to it...

Yes, would be nice to have a score with the words in brackets again!  Let's batter them, and show that we're not going to be concerned with the lower reaches this year.

A draw would be fine.

A win would be a bonus.

A progressive performance is a must. Not the usual two steps forwards, one step back.
