So Sky are showing Palace v Wolves, instead of our match, that's a bit rubbish.

Tbf it is the actual dictionary definition of a dead rubber.

VillaTV are showing it.

Hopefully not in 1975-o-vision like the Valencia game.

Think he’s talking about Sunday Paulie.

That’s a very good point.

It's the downside of the more-equitable TV money deal compared to other countries. The mid-tablers/bottom-feeders need to get their share of live games.

It’s Risso’s fault for having two pre-match threads going concurrently.

Tomorrows result: Aston Villa 0 Hibernian 6.

Every week, some pro tells us 'one game at a time'.

Glad Unai is our manager and not Risso.

What fresh hell is this?! There's a match tomorrow FFS. This cannot stand. I want my money back. I've just put my foot through the screen of my laptop and I'll be sending the repair bill to Mr M.Rissbrandle, Rutland.

Honestly, this country.
Extremely appalling and rather brisk step, leaves a very bad taste in the mouth. I have heard that the malefactor is not from our part of the County.

I'd take the draw, I reckon they'll nick it with some shocking late ref decisions.

1-1

They’ll get a late equaliser.

Not being funny but I have look out for the league cup draw tonight, follow the Hibs game tomorrow, barring a disaster look out for the european group draw on friday morning. In addition the transfer window will be slamming shut soon. This is before I have to try and keep on top of news regarding any notable deaths that may have to be commented on, and also seeing if there are any surprising birthdays coming up of celebrities I thought were already dead.
Wedged in between this never ending list I have to try and eat, sleep, and keep myself in a reasonably presentable state hygiene wise.
It really is much too early to start worrying about that bunch of scallywags.
I'll settle for a 5-1 or a 7-2 victory.

Villa TV sounds more trouble than it’s worth so, no £5 from me.

Played very well going forward against Burnley but looked at times defensively fragile. Burnley had chances that Liverpool would have taken.

Has there been any update on Martinez? I expect to see Olsen against Hibs but hoping normal service is resumed for this one.
