It'll be a goal fest and another 4-2 win for us, leaving Nick Owen in a foul mood on Midlands Today.
Good I really have never liked him or Anne diamond. He looks like a vicar with a case of the chufties

Sorry but the correct English is 'a diamond'.

It was my first away game with Villa.  May 1992.  A kid called Mark Bosnich made his debut in goal.

I'll be there on Saturday for my second visit to Kenilworth Road.

And I was seven years old.

I'm now Thirty Nine with wife, daughter, mortgage, dog.

Bloody hell.
Oh to be 39 again, sigh!

Haha. Why is it that we feel old at ages that we later look back on with fondness?  >:(

I hate this fixture. We always lose at their plastic pitch shithole. Hopefully Unai can continue to de-Villa-fy the Villa so we go there and make our superiority tell and win with the minimum of fuss.

It’s the most H&V and Villa supporting thing to downplay our prospects for fixtures such as this. We’ve done it all season with other struggling sides as well. Nothing will be taken for granted with Emery’s squad as we have seen all season. We’ll turn up and come home with the points.

The home game was probably the easiest three points we've taken this season.

I really hope they stay up... but hope more we batter them on Saturday. It's a tricky one, but if we're going to finish in the top 4 we need to get 3 points from this.  They will be practicing wining corners all week I'm sure.

Fingers crossed one or two of the injured players are back.

For those of us of a certain age, Luton were given a sheen of glamour by Eric Morecambe in the 1970’s.

Last time we won here, Derek Mountfield got the winner and Mark Blake made his senior debut apparently...

I was there in the players lounge as My Dad went to school with Ray Harford and were old pals .  He started asking me questions about Blake and halfway through I said ' should I be telling you this '   Not that I knew much as a teenager ,  but a fab moment.   Les Sealey was having a fag in the Lounge , I was flabbergasted .  Times have changed but not that stadium
