Out of the contenders for top 4 Spuds are certainly my favorite. I've never liked Liverpool for various reasons and Man City are just trying to buy success. Why? From what I can remember you said the same about Arsenal and we almost won. We rarely ever lose. We draw a lot I'll give you that but I doubt we'll lose. Why the unwarranted pessimism?
-
I thought he was doing that but wasn't 100% sure at the time. Good banter. I hope that weren't the reason! He does that celebration mainly because of his mother who died. Although alot of others do it, so it's a fine celebration and take the mick out, as long as it's not because the reason you've stated which I'm sure it isn't. Messi etc...does it too. Gabby's mother isn't dead.
-
I dunno about Cuellar. He's good but he seems to give the ball away in dangerous positions a lot. Still, this doesn't take away from the fact that he's saved us from conceding a lot of goals.
-
I don't think there's any reason why we can't win this. We attacked well in the first half yesterday and defended well in the second. Now that Gabby has netted two goals in one game after that long dry spell hopefully he can go on to score more. I'm predicting either a 1 or 2-0 win. If we'd lost or had a no score draw yesterday I think things would be very different.
-
Anyone know the name of the song played at the beginning of half time?
-
Let's hope he can carry on finishing well.
-
Am I the only one here who took a good few seconds to react to the first goal?
-
Dunne is half the reason why we have such a good defensive record this season.

You guys were making quite a racket over there. There was me sitting in P2 wishing I was over there with you. We had to put up with a bunch of Fulham fans sitting three rows behind us shouting "rider boy". Don't know what that was all about. It's ok, they shut up once we scored. I was hoping she was a poster on here..... Didn't think we were as loud as we usually are and there were a few spare seats dotted around. Damn. Knew we should've waited to get tickets in the away bit. You lot were very good though. From what I could hear you were louder than the entire Fulham end!

Very good game. Good to see Gabby score again. Kind of weird actually because I predicted he would get a hat-trick today and he almost did! I knew I should of placed a bet on us winning and Gabby scoring. Some Fulham fans in front of us got up at half time and left. Very odd. Also it's a shame there weren't very many Villa fans in the neutral section.
-
****. Time to unleash... THE FONZ.
-
Gabby to net a hat-trick.
-
I'm going for a Villa win in normal time. Really don't see why people are saying all they can see is a United win. We've beaten them once this season. I admit that if we hadn't beaten them in December things might've been slightly more grim for us.
-
Perhaps a 4 premier league game streak of no goals scored will convince MON to dip into the transfer market? It's obviously too late now but he better do it in the summer.
-
Didn't see much of it but I think 0-0 is a good result. I'm going up to Fulham on Saturday and I did NOT want us going into that on a loss.
-
Seems like it's doom and gloom on here already. :shock:
-
I hope the players don't go out there tonight with a pessimistic attitude. I know we are the underdogs in this tie and Arsenal are indeed a very strong side but this is football - anything can happen. Of course, this doesn't mean I think things should be left to fate but I'm confident in the players and MON.
-
Does MON use 4-5-1 very often?
-
You think? From what I've seen most Arsenal fans think they're gonna win 3-0 again. Of course, this is way too optimistic on their part.
-
Why? If we can play like we did for the majority of the Blackburn game then I think we can win it.
-
I don't know what to think about this game. A part of me thinks we're destined to lose, going by the last game against Arsenal and our recent poor league run, but on the other hand I think we may be in for a chance. We're at home and still on a high from last Wednesday night. I think it'll either be a draw or a close Villa win. Also, Friedel will be in goal so I don't think we'll let in as many as we did in the cups, if any.
