Martin O'Neill managed both Villa and Celtic of course.
I imagine he'll be asked to comment leading up to the match.
Possibly invited by the club?
Or used as a pundit for TNT .

Alan McInally

McInally has quite the role at Villa now doesn't he.
Very involved on Villa TV and media side of things.
Quite the host.
He was most prominent for the 150 celebrations yet he only played two years at Villa.

Seems to have an affection for us as only English club he played for.

No tickets received yet, it’s not like the Villa’s ticket dept to be so disorganised…….

Celtic won’t be fancy they’ll be up for it, fast in your face pressing, plenty of high balls into the box and very direct
Just the sort of attacking football we struggle to defend

Anyone thinking it will be a cake walk will be very disappointed especially the way we are  playing at the moment
I think it will be a tough night for our defence,
we should have enough quality but that won’t be enough We need to be totally focused and match them in effort and energy levels all over the pitch and attacking intent
