Just over a week to go so I'm starting the thread.

[Duncan Shaw]

Easy Villa win, 4-2. FTGHPF!

Can't Control to score on his debut?

[VILLA MOLE]

3-3 no new signings will play for either team.

[Monty]

We lose match of ball foot.

[Somniloquism]

3-3 no new signings will play for either team.

Not sure why they wouldn't play Elanga.

[VILLA MOLE]

3-3 no new signings will play for either team.

Not sure why they wouldn't play Elanga.

oh bloody hell yeh , bugger forgot they had him

[Garyth]

3-3 no new signings will play for either team.

And we're playing Gauchi?

[devilla]

Assuming Bizot will be in goal, a baptism of fire but I guess not much choice with Emi being suspended for, I assume, three games?

No idea how this will go but I'm going for a barcode win. Yes, I'm a miserable git but the way we haven't been able to strengthen in the window is a worry.

[Tayls_7]

It might take time for us to bed all the new signings in so I'm going 1-1.

Gone way too early with this, even the more excitable amongst us (Toronto, Footy-Vill) would have Netflix and chilled for a few more days before opening the new season in haste.

Isaak to give away a penalty and get sent off.
Villa to lose against 10 men.
