hants-villa72 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 usually get a good result away at Reading - but dreading this one. On the plus side at least i am in the away end, last season I was in the players lounge area which is right next to the away fans and took dogs abuse! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost earlier this year away to Newcastle when after a bad losing run Bruce reverted to type and we spent the entire 90 minutes camped in our own half hoofing balls up to Scott and Kodjia. Eventually Newcastle's relentless pressure paid off. That is what will happen tonight. Bruce just cannot help himself, and in times of crisis you do not be bold and pro-active, you go back to basics, drop 30 yards deeper and punt the **** ball as far as you can into the channels. Hmm, putting 12 men out to guarantee points are docked. It's innovative, but not convinced it'll work tbh. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifamad Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I got a weird feeling we will win comfortably tonight I don't know why just feel there will be a backlash from the Cardiff game, I'm going 1-3 to us! UTV! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I learned to not expect much from Villa anymore, I just want us to go out there and **** a team up 3-0. It's more likely for us to get beat good or it be boring and we draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodsBarkeep Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 5 at the back tonight I reckon - that's defenders I mean, not goals - although that'd wouldn't surprise me neither after Saturday Obviously Bruce is up against it, and I'd expect that to translate into an even more cautious approach, rather than an open, gung-ho performance that many dream of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I have a feeling Bruce will come out with the 3-4-3 tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I expect Bruce will join the list of recent managers and begin to set us up not to lose rather than to win. i cannot see us getting anything from this match other than further frustration, annoyance and shitty excuses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be his last throw of the dice but I can't see the ref being happy about him putting 12 players in the team. To be honest though the old 5-4-2 is that radical we might stand a chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilbertoAVFC Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 We're gonna win this. And if we don't, Bruce is gone. Quite simply, I am (reasonably) happy either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villan_of_oz Posted August 15, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted August 15, 2017 Reading 3-0. Yes I've completely turned to the dark side, I feel the force is stronger over here. Disclaimer: I'm only joking when I call people who don't rate Bruce on the dark side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan-scott Posted August 15, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted August 15, 2017 Something is telling me we are going to react and give them a tonking. I think it's called false hope or insanity, one or the other! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Beat reading tonight then beat Norwich and it's a decent start to the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
