Denis242 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 This is surely a must win! And I think well win. I dont think we'll lose. But I think theres a possibility we'll draw 1-1 with Bent scoring the goal for them. Wouldn't surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Just do the job, don't take the piss , and get the 3 points Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonno_2004 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 My first game at VP in nearly three years - decided on a whim yesterday given the missus and lad are with the grandparents. Looking forward to it, although the genuine expectation for the win is always a worry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villatillidie1980 Posted February 2, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2018 Agree that this should be three points, but we need to be professional more than anything. Look at Liverpool the other week, going from beating top of the league to losing to bottom of the league. With the amount of games remaining, I still think there will be a few twists and turns and probably a couple of poor results. We need to stick with it a back the lads all the way.

Stratvillan Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 We need to win, this should be one of the 10 wins we need for the edge of automatic promotion. Would like a more attacking bench to either grab winner or hopefully rest snoddy and adomah and grealish if we're winning. Would be tempted to put Davis up fron and drop the cdm.

Vive_La_Villa Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Only way we don't get 3 points tomorrow is if the team turn up expecting it like against Millwall. But i think with JT in the team nobody will be taking Burton for granted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 2, 2018 Moderator Share Posted February 2, 2018 Looking at the clubs online ticketing stuff there aren't that many tickets still available for this (around 1500). I don't know how reliable that is, but it'll be interesting to see what happens if there's any sort of take up on match day. I'm guessing the club can't open the Upper Trinity on a whim, so I'm wondering if they'd put the Full House signs up despite a whole empty section.

I think we have turned a big corner since then but your right that JT & Snoddy will be going all out again to ensure we don't just kick back. I feel as long as we get off on the right tempo we can see them off with a good few goals here without being complacent either. 4-0 and 3 points please. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Cloughie will have them up for this one. We need another win to press for second place. It might be a bit of a battle against near neighbours who would love to cause an upset but I'm going for Hogan to score our first and a 4-0 win.

No point opening upper trinity, it won't be worth it. There maybe 34k there today, and that will be with an half empty away end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Nervous but excited at the same time for this one. Hope we can go 2 or 3 goals ahead, then enjoy it a bit. UTV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robtaylor200 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I think my 4:1 bet will come in today (only 28/1) Bent will score if he is playing, hope its only the 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wedge Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Presuming Grabban will be given another week before we see him in the squad: GK Johnstone RB Elmo CB Chester CB Terry (c) LB Hutton CDM Bjarnson RM Snodgrass LM Adomah CAM Grealish ST Davis ST Hogan Subs: Bunn, Tuanzbe, Hourihane, Jedinak, Whelan, Taylor, Onomah.

Wonder which Darren will turn up today? I read this very differently at first glance. He hasn't scored this season, Tuesday night was his first 64 minutes in ALL competitions. So we're definitely starting a goal down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given his stats over the last 3 years the 10 men Bent will likely turn up. His most prolific scoring season since leaving Villa was his 10 goals from 15 games in 2015, that was during his loan spell at Derby. He then joins Derby and scores 12 goals in 58 games. I don't see him being much of a threat unless he's playing to impress Burton, but at 33 he may just be winding down the clock on his career at whichever team will pick him.
