Aston Villa v Manchester United 21.12.25 - Pre Match Thread

Also referee in the FA Cup game where they spent an hour and a half or so desperately trying to find a reason to disallow our equaliser and, of course, found one.

Yep
How many phases did they go back

It was finally disallowed for a foul by Dennis Mortimer on Frank Stapleton.

Pau out for a few weeks is a big blow.

We usually have a key player missing when we face these.

So good to see that tradition continue.

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Maybe Lindelof will play a blinder against his former club.

(clutches at straw)

[Halfway to Moseley]

They’re missing De Ligt, Maguire, Casemiro, Mbuemo, Mazraoui and Amad. No excuses.

Just wanted to join in the pile on and vent my own hatred, disgust and complete and utter contempt for the football side that represents the red side of Manchester.

Their supporters constitute the worst of humanity, vile human beings each and everyone of them.

I’d full Kevin Keegan ‘Love it’ if we smash the bastards into orbit this weekend, and despite the much catalogued years of misery and cheating we’ve endured at the hands of them, I really expect us to do it. Our home form is fantastic our current form stupendous, Unai will use the injustice of last season to fire the lads up into an unstoppable fury of fire and retribution.

Villa 4 Scum 0

Brilliantly said and echoed loud from here! 4-0 and FTF!!!!

I'm going for a Villa win, payback, after that crazy game last season whereby the rule book was chucked out the window then cost Villa a fortune, a Champions League spot and put the club into some sort of malaise at the start of this season with PSR, now is the time.

Aston Villa 2 Man Utd 1

The consequences of that terrible mistake by the ref should have prompted something akin to the Spanish Inquisition...but because it was us they swept it under the carpet with a shrug of the shoulders.
Every time we play them I get the feeling we are going to be done over in some way.

He’s a very driven man and he’s ours. He puts a lot of thought into what he’s saying even though his translation isn’t quite perfect yet. I’m sure he’ll master it in due course. I am now going to drop the ‘b’ from objective as a mark of respect to our genius manager. That will be my ojective.
