They're still bitching about the non goal, we would be in League 1 without that but of luck 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Think it will be a much closer game than some might be expecting and Cameron Archer will have a point to prove too. Should be a cracking atmosphere and if we get an early goal then hopefully we can get a few more and go top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero7 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 They will put all 11 men behind the ball and go route one to Archer when they can. Need to get an early goal to force them out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want a win, don’t care the score. I’d take 1-0 and McGinn not booked. Is that the same as having a bad feeling about this one ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a bad feeling about the majority of our matches. Very rarely do I feel otherwise (the derby play off final was a notable exception). Any negative feeling for this one is mainly powered by the prospect of ballsing up a chance of being top of the league, even for a day. But I’d feel a tiny bit less negative if we had a recent record against them that was more akin to our recent record against, say, Norwich.

rubberman Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I expect Lenglet to get a run if Pau's out, particularly given the speculation about him being off. Hopefully Tim gets some minutes as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pongo Waring Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I think we will put on a friday night show. 5-0 Villa. Thriller at the Villa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to get an early goal to force them out Exactly what they did at the weekend, everyone sits deep and hope for a set piece or breakaway, an early goal will hopefully see them advance which will open up space for us to attack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite how incredible we’ve been the past year I’m with you a bit. It’s impossible for me to go into these games with confidence you should do. That said the life long expectation of disappointment has taken a battering by the relentless demand for success from Mr Emery’s these days I go into most games not having a clue what will happen. Then we win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take any kind of a win tho. Hopefully Goal Line tech is switched off just for the laughs. I’d imagine that the BBC woke department have banned this for not being inclusive. Which could be enough to propel it to no. 1 this Christmas, like us! UTV!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the chance to be number 1 for a few hours, which is pretty amazing considering what we were like when Emery took over... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
