We'll either win this 5-0 or suffer a disappointing 0-0 draw.
-
Whoever is in pole position seems to choke. I'm expecting/hoping the same will happen to City.
-
Should be able to win this with relative ease.
-
Good defense as usual. Getting a point against Stoke away isn't all that bad.
-
Put the Fonz in instead of Heskey.
-
I can see us getting at least one penalty in this game.
-
But I heard Gabby had gotten over his virus.
-
Why play Heskey? Why? In reality I should've seen this coming. MON couldn't really not play Carew because of his performance last week and he's never gonna leave Heskey on the bench.
-
You've got to be joking.
-
What I find even more strange is that overall in the Premier League we've been next to impossible to score against (that second goal conceded against Burnley was a result of the large number of goals we scored that day, so I'm not gonna count it), and yet in the cups we've been leaking goals, but also scoring loads as well. Bar Crystal Palace away I don't think we've scored less than 3 goals in a game in the FA Cup.

I can't wait for the reception Judas is going to get at VP when we play SHA in April.
-
I have not seen a single Bluenose down here. I've seen a few Villa fans mind you. I think it's safe to say Villa are easily the most popular Midlands club in the south.

A lot of people have a tendency to grossly overestimate Stoke because of what happened this time last year. Stoke are a good team but not so good that we have no hope of getting anything better than a draw. I feel that the Reading game could be a turning point for us. I'm sure coming back from a Carling Cup final defeat and being 2-0 at half time in such a fashion probably had a good effect on the players, not to mention we might start to see more of Carew now that he's getting more confident.
-
If Carew turns up for even 10 minutes this match I think we will be guaranteed to win.
-
There was a good looking steward near me. She helped a disabled man with Terry on the back of his shirt down the steps and some guys tried to get her to do it to them too.
-
I wanna see some pictures of that.
-
I'm going for a draw, but I could see a close win out of this. It's just as important not to overestimate Stoke as it is to underestimate them.
-
They don't seriously think Mcleish is better than MON do they? It's not just about having money, it's about using it wisely. Whichever way you look at it our recent success is not just down to Randy's money but also MON for being able to use that money effectively. It's not like we're Man City anyway. We don't get £200M every summer to spend on players. We get 10 times less and yet are still doing better than them this season.
-
MON is a genius. We've actually done it three times this year alone. Why the hell can't we score like that for the entire game and not just 10-15 minutes?
-
Thats our strongest XI,funny we dont play it very often. Perhaps after today MON will finally bench Heskey and start playing Carew.
-
Shit support though. Only seemed to do anything when they scored.
-
We've gotta stop playing poorly and going 2-0 and then coming back in the most epic fashion ever. My heart just can't take it.
-
They were Curry Pies, not balti. My mate asked for a chicken balti, he gets given a pasty. He repeats himself then gets a Vegetable pie. **** shockin. Almost as bad as Wembley. Wait, you were in that line too? He was just shocking. Don't know what the rest of them were like but we must've been in the slowest queue because all the other lines seemed to flow a lot quicker.
-
I don't rate the "balti" pies they sold at the ground. They were crap. They weren't even balti. Also, there was this one guy (tall and black) who was serving and he was the slowest person I've ever seen. Took him about 10-15 minutes to process one order.
-
I had the Carling Cup home shirt on too, although I wore a black Villa jacket over it for most of the game. I was wearing a Martin O'Neill scarf as well. Yup, Batman was great. Gave him a high five as he was walking back up.
