I'm off to the bookies tomorrow to see what they will give me on Coady scoring, I'm expecting very short odds!

Their new midfield signing will probably end up having the game of his life.

I'm expecting starts for Luiz, Watkins, Buendia and Chambers. I think it's early enough in the season to put that many changes in as many other teams will be switching around.

Get the feeling it's going to be one of those have loads of ball but struggle to break down opposition game, 1-1 wouldn't surprise me at all as Everton will sit back and play 5 in defence. The high temperatures won't help us either as we're the ones who need to be on the front foot.

Going to be travel chaos aswell with the train strikes and the club seemingly expecting everyone to come by car going by their website post today, surely they could purchase some of the buses the council used for the Commonwealth for this?

I'm going to Bloodstock on Saturday anyway. First band I want to see is Sylosis at 3pm so will have time to catch most of this game so any good Villa pub in the Lichfield area to drop in on the way, was thinking of the one at Boley Park which shows football and has been o.k in the past when I've eat there.

Mike's had a word

God, I wish he really was in charge of the team with Gus our chief exec.

Isn't that what you get after spending a muddy weekend at Glastonbury or is that trench-foot?

So when Mings starts for us we never concede a goal from a corner or a set piece? if that is the case then Mings should always be in the team.

if Mings does not start on Saturday and we concede a goal even if it is a 40 yard thunderbolt - most on here will say "if Mings had started we would not have conceded that goal"

If he starts and we concede a goal from a corner or set piece it will not be his fault.

Whenever a player is not in the starting 11 they are always the best player in the club, you never make a mistake in a game sitting on the bench watching the game.

For me on Saturday it should be Chambers and Carlos as our 2 centre backs as Everton will not just launch the ball up the field, and will play a more possession based game against us.

That’s how it works.

Carlos Cuellar and Ron Vlaar turned into Baresi & McGrath when they were out of the side.

Me too.
I'll take the 4-0 and the Dirty Dancing thing when Mings scores.

Oh, and the joy of no trains at Aston or Witton stations on Saturday.... Have fun those that are going. Me? I'll be on the beach. I hope the players aren't.
