Aston Villa v Celtic Pre match

[Sexual Ealing]

Even the thought of the Papist takeover of Asda Minworth is putting me off my Findus Crispy Pancakes.

Maybe Uni should consider a 3 at the back like West Ham did against us with only one fit centre-half. Bogarde on the Right, Konsa in the middle and Digne on the left.

Three Celtics in One.....

Tommy Barber.
He scored the winning goal for us in the 1913 Cup Final.
After suffering wounds in The Somme in 1916 he was evacuated back to Britain and recovered in an Aberdeen hospital. In 1918 he played as a guest for Celtic, in 1919 he played as a guest for Belfast Celtic and after that was on the books of Stalybridge Celtic !

Mine and my dad's tickets have both appeared now.

[AV82EC]

Yep tickets have arrived.

I can't see a win here so, play off it is.

You "can't see a win" against a team for whom only one player would be make our starting eleven (one of their two centre-backs, obviously)?

That strikes me as strangely despondent.

Remember  mostar last season? We struggled to beat them at home and drew with them away. Doesnt always work that way

Remember Ajax, 4-0. You can look for a positive comparison sometimes

Isn't that what Whigfield says at the beginning of 'Saturday night'?

That made me laugh 😂

Inspired. Post of 2025 already sown-up imo. Saw the song on a 1994 TOTP edition on BBCSomething a few weeks ago, made me feel old.

If you read what the original  subject was about then you would understand why mostar was menioned and has nothing to do with negative or positive 

[Aldridge Villa]

Anybody else still awaiting their tickets?

[Dave P]

Still not got my tickets yet

[Aldridge Villa]

Still not got my tickets yet

Thanks Dave , fingers crossed they’re imminent.

[Dave P]

[john e]

Got mine
Moved them straight on to an Irish fella who says he’s a mad about Villa for £500 each
He says I will easy recognise him he’s got a tattoo of a famous villa fan on his arm Bobby something or other

So should be ok
