Check out Moor Street to Marylebone, theres a super off peak return for £19.50. Leaves Brum at 9.55/10.15/10.55 and leaves London at 8pm. That will go though so book it up ASAP.
National express have got funfares on too but their website is down at the moment, could be worth a look, not sure what the times are like though.
EDIT: beaten to it
I really want to progress in this competition, Id play:
-----------Guzan-----------
Beye-Cuellar-Clark-Lichaj
--------Reo Coker--------
Alby-----Bannan-----Young
------Ireland-----------
--------Carew/Delf-------
Ireland needs match practice and confidence. Carew needs confidence. I would start JC and bring on Delfuenso after 60 mins. Oh also I would play Luke Young instead of Beye if he's fit again to get a bit of match fitness in time for the derby, but I don't know when he will be back.
I have caught the train from Witton a few times over the last 6 months or so and I have never had a problem with the service, and I don't leave the ground until about 5 mins after the game.
I am so excited for tomorrow, hate international breaks!
I really think we could get something from it, we seem to do alright against Chelsea (obvious aside).
I agree with the above post about maybe not starting Albrighton, but I would bring him on around 60/65 mins to run them ragged with his fresh legs.
Just seen the highlights, **** brilliant play from EH for our goal. Really hope he keeps this form up. VDV looked like he had an awesome game, I wouldn't blame Dunne for the second goal.
I was stuck on a train back from Munich with no battery so had to wait til getting home to find out what happened. So glad we won, its games like this that we need to be winning, particularly with our next couple of fixtures.
Heskey MOTM, closely followed by Ash and Bannan. I only saw the 2nd half but it sounds like I didnt miss much before HT.
Emile changed the game when he came on, he was brilliant. Hope he gains confidence from this and we see some similar performances in the league. The results went so well tonight, just hope we can avoid Manure and Arsenal in the next round, or even better knock one of them out.
Guzan
L Young, Cuellar, Clark, Warnock
NRC, Petrov
Downing, Ireland, A Young
Carew
is the team I would like to see. Bring Gabby on if necessary but we will need him on sunday so no point risking him.
Isn't he doubtful with an injury for tonights game ?
I thought that, but he wasn't listed as doubtful on the BBC site earlier. If he doesnt play I should get my stake back.
Can anybody help me, are there any bars near the hauptbahnhof in munich that show PL football? I'm going for Oktoberfest this weekend and wouldn't mind catching the Villa game before I get my train home on sunday. ta.
I really don't understand the Downing hate when he's had a good game, thought he was our best player today.
We are so depressing to watch, we cna never capitalise on pressure and so once again we were only one up after 20 mins when we should have had two or three and then we show no ideas when the other team equalize and end up lucky to escape with a point at home to bolton, not good viewing.
hopefully will be able to get a stream to work now im out in germany with a dodgy internet connection. i've had a punt on ash first gs e/w, and us to score 4 or more.
