Aston Villa vs Burnley pre match thread POSTPONED

Like Wimbledon games of yore, they drag you down to their level if you're not careful. However, we're due to give them a good shoeing, so I'm going 4-0.

Just remembered when we played Wimbledon right before Christmas one year and won 7-0.

You are getting the 7-1 (1995) and the 5-0 (December 1996) mixed up.

I think you may have done Wimbledon a disservice there. I think we only beat them 7-1 . Also I think the Wimbledon game just before Christmas was something like 5-0 and the 7-1 game came afterwards, possibly the following season.

If this game goes ahead, we will win 3-1.

You mean the 7-1 victory on February 11th 1995 at VP? Tommy Johnson hat-trick.....amazingly, Wimbledon took the lead!

[OCD]

Yeah, you're both right. There was a 5-0 and a 7-1. It was beginning to feel like a Christmas tradition.

So did San Marino, with the fastest international goal ever at the time. Sir Graham's last stand before his humiliating reign was terminated.

Can we recall Wesley for this one? He seems to be doing bugger-all for Brugge. I just want him to get on the pitch and do what he thinks he needs to, to that thug Ben Thatcher/Mee.

[richtheholtender]

Think the 7-1 was before the 5-0. We had Saunders for the 7-1 and Yorke had moved to be our main striker for the 5-0

[eamonn]

Basically, we were shit the season when we won 7-1. We were brilliant the season we won 5-0. Alright?

[Deano's Mullet]

The 5-0 was December 1996. 22nd I believe.

Ben Mee deserves absolutely the worst treatment we can dish out, boo’d into oblivion whenever he gets the ball please. Need to be on at the ref demanding cards early to stop them kicking us out of the game too. God I hate Burnley, really hope we can smash them.

[bilsim]

An absolute travesty that we only took 1 point off them last year but we're a better outfit now and this looks like the year that the Premier League may finally flush the turd that is Burnley.

3-0 (McGinn, Ramsey, Ings)

[Border villan]

Burnley confirm Covid amongst playing staff.

[Drummond]

Have played these shithouses 8 times in Premiership

Home - W 1 D 2 L 1

Away  - W 1 D 2 L 1

So not a formality to win by any means but they do seem a bit shitterer this season and i fancy them to actually drop

A very bruising 1-0 with a scrappy Konsa goal

I'm surprised our record is that good. We were utter garbage for most of the time we played them. Now we're on the up. Therefore, a win.
