It is a cup semi-final, but if you gave me the choice between beating Leicester tonight or beating Bournemouth on the weekend, I'd take beating Bournemouth every single time. It's sad, but we really need to stay up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 The lure of a showpiece final may also help us in getting any more transfers over the line, assuming of course we’re still in for one or two more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely can't believe people are thinking like this. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too consider Bournemouth the more import game but having come so far we have to put out our strongest team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talldarkandransome Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I've booked day off for this to make sure I'm not late, shame there will be empty seats, I'd rather see the away end full Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenjiOgiwara Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 You play football to win trophies in my opinion. Full strength all the way, except those who might not be up to speed i.e. the new lad up front. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I am going to try and enjoy this one and hope it is one of the famous nights under the lights at Villa Park. Come on the Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted January 28, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted January 28, 2020 I'm expecting the atmosphere to be pumping tonight. As long as we don't do anything silly early on I'm hoping for a special night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post wilko154 Posted January 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2020 If a professional footballer can't manage two games in a week (with one being a Cup Semi Final) after having a week off then they need to take a long hard look at themselves. Full strength, no sentiment, do our best to get to Wembley. It's about time this football club started competing for silverware again, and I hope this is just the start of it over the next few years. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good performance tonight in front of our fans, playing well and getting the result will give momentum for Saturday. Play too much of changed line up or flop tonight just makes Saturday harder. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 If it came to going down with a trophy or staying up and winning nothing, I'd chose going down with the silver every single time. There's a reason we talk about being a big club, and it's because of trophies we won 100 years ago. **** being in a shit gravy train league, stacked against anyone outside the top 4 clubs over winning silverware. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gloucestershire, Bicester, The river Thames, Worcestershire sauce... that reminds me of this classic Charles Dickens' "A Tale of Two Cities" was originally serialised in two local newspapers. It was the Bicester Times, it was the Worcester Times. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players want to win things and robbing them of that chance will be asking for trouble. Edited January 28, 2020 by sne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 we also have a winter break imminently, after having had the weekend off, so no excuses for going full tilt here and next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
