foreveryoung Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Its gonna end up being very uplifting for the players and us fans if we can win this this one, especially with all the Sherwood talk. Problem is it works the opposite way of a huge moody if we lose it. Only positive is we won the League game, which to me was the more important of the 2.

Brumstopdogs Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Big game today and a chance to beat the baggies twice in a week which would be nice (although the league game was the bigger match IMO). Need to make sure we don't give any cheap free kicks away or any unnecessary corners as West Brom obviously look at their most threatening from set pieces. Would like to see a similar line up to the midweek game when we played so well. UTV 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danishlad Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I think we will win this. Got a feeling Grealish might start. Villa 3-0 WBA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avfctom89 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Had a dream last night we won 3-0 with benteke scoring 2 and grealish scoring a last minute free-kick and villa park absolutely erupting ... Maybe dreams can come true . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobler Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 So glad to have won the most important game on Tuesday. Now I just feel that great FA Cup feeling, without worrying too much if we lose but just enjoying a great FA Cup day. Boggles my mind that we are one game off Wembley after everything this season.

packoman Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) Someone on my Facebook has said Benteke has not trained and is not in the squad but I haven't seen anything. Has anyone else? Edited March 7, 2015 by packoman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted March 7, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted March 7, 2015 Can't be bothered to trawl back through the thread, but I assume everybody's seen the excellent Benjamin Zephaniah video this morning? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I don't see this game being any less important than the league one myself. What are we doing if we are not trying to win trophies. I think we've been brainwashed into thinking the only thing that matters is staying in the Premier League. I don't think it's brainwashing. For a club to win a trophy they generally have to be in the Premier League. More money = better players = better chance of winning a trophy. I think given our situation we would be forgiven if prirotised the league over the cup. (However, I don't think we will) If we go down we can pretty much kiss goodbye to winning a trophy at all other than the Championship. When was the last time a club who weren't in the Premier League won either the FA Cup or the League Cup? Well we've been in the Premier League since the beginning and haven't won it. We also won the league cup in 1974 as a 2nd division side. I am as desperate as anybody for us to stay up but you don't remember sides for finishing 15th in the Premier League but you do remember winners of the FA Cup. Sunderland 1973, Bob Stokoe running on the pitch. Wigan. These things are etched in ones memories for ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilbertoAVFC Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Im in london this afternoon, any idea where i can go to watch the game where there may be a few brummies?

PaulC Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) Sherwood did say he has only 18 fit players so I hope that rumour about Benteke being injured is untrue. Regarding Given, we pick our strongest team so that should include Guzan for me. Edited March 7, 2015 by PaulC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
