Aston Villa vs Super Big Six Man Utd pre match thread

[Abbeyfealeavfc]

I wonder who the referee is....

It's Chris Kavanagh

He is useless

I expect he's been chosen for that very reason.

1 red and 59 yellows in 19 matches this season. So gets a game just over every other week.

Born in Manchester? What could possibly go wrong.

He will probably travel down on the Team bus.

You'd be hard pressed to even make this up.
Odds on them getting 2 or more penalties have probs shortened.

The proper die hards hate being called Man U which they see as a derogatory insult from - i think it was someone like Leeds. I used to work with a Crawley Red and it drove him nuts. It’s ironic as so many of their ‘fan base’ use it to describe themselves.

Who was it on here that got wound up by people calling them United? It was quite funny.

Not to mention "The Theatre of Dreams".  That raised some hackles, if memory serves.

Probably a Sheffield United fan, btw. Or maybe The Gnasher.

We'd best up security. I can see them trying to break in to Villa Park for another pitch invasion to postpone the match.

agree.
I can not see this going ahead without some sort of protest.

Are you saying that if there is no protest of any kind they will call it off ?

At least it will be a shorter journey home to London for their fans after.

Or perhaps Sendo.

It was Silhillvilla who used TTOD to describe the Man U stadium.

The big question are the diehard brummie reds going to allow this game to be played?

We can hope, we can pray, or we can start the Crystal Palace match thread early...

My bad (as the kids say)! Hadn't realised the Everton return fixture had been squeezed in beforehand.

The sentiment is the same though, sadly...

Re Potential Villa Park Invasion: would imagine West Midlands finest are working on it now with the club as I type.

I'd hope that any Brummie Reds protesting are met with the kind police violence I'd be moaning about in off topic were it dished out to anyone else.

I think they made their point at OT last weekend. Might do so again. They’d be daft trying anything at VP this weekend. Can’t be ruled out I suppose. Anything to get on the hallowed turf.

I think it's time to order in more alcohol and possibly tranquilizers

Bloody hell, I just spat out some Scotch Egg.

I use it in tribute to whoever it was.
SOH failure though

[brontebilly]

Have a horrible feeling we could take a right beating in this one. They struggle against teams who sit in deep with a low block. But that's not something we ever do. I'm expecting Watkins to cause a few problems but little else.

He's a Man City fan who upset the Plastics a few weeks back by disallowing a Cavani goal against Spurs. No doubt he'll be looking to make it up to them on Sunday.
