Just realised it's Liverppol on Sky and Arsenal on TNT. I keep forgetting about TNT.

Is this on the tellybox?

No but it'll be covered by Gogglebox next Friday.

"Nutty, who is this Watkins fellow they rave about?"
"Oliver, he's an international understudy for that Kane chap who fled to Bavaria."
"How ghastly, Mary. Who would do a terrible thing like that...?"

Haha, I've never seen Gogglebox (it just doesn't appeal to me at all) so that went right over my head. Sorry.

Remarkably accurate as well, Bravo.

I really want Ollie to get his 20 (preferably from open play, but if it’s a pen, so be it)!
Come on Villa and come on Ollie!

I think Watkins will definitely start, so that he has a chance of 20 goals, but the rest of the line up could be anything depending on who’s been partying the least.

Barring Luton this season, and even allowing for Bournemouth, it is the worst stadium in he Prem, and it’s as if it has been frozen in time for decades, and from the outside it resembles a prison in parts.

Does anyone have a strong premonition about which number will be important to this fixture.  I'm thinking 3, or 8?

They're building a massive new stand to dwarf the three other sheds surrounding the pitch, so it'll soon resemble Elland Road instead.

468 is the number of the bus to get there from Lewisham.

8 is roughly the number of hours it takes to get back to Brum from that god forsaken place.
