Hanky Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Must have beaten them under MoN Seem to remember beating them at Christmas one season when Carew scored the winner. It may have also been the same game that he kicked the corner flag but unsure on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilbertoAVFC Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Yeah Downing played an amazing cross-field ball (the first thing of real quality he'd actually done in a Villa shirt), Carew finished it and we beat them 1-0. We have lost to them at home once, can't believe no-one else remembers that 2-2 defeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villadude Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Stoke have nothing to play for now, we should be winning this game. That said however, I'm expecting a draw at best.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadlyDirk Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I remember that 2-2 defeat.... Very painful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Drawing 2-2 with Stoke was one of the worst results under MON. I anticipate a draw today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smetrov Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 A team that thrives on set pieces (them not us) - I fear for us today. 0-2 my prediction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I'm unusually optimistic for the match today. I think we might even sneak the three points. Too optimistic maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villapark1 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Carruthers looked decent the other day - An away game away at Liverpool needing a result a player might bottle it, he came on and won a penalty straight away, he looked to have good composure and technicall ability. I hope for the same team and and Wienman in for Heskey. Did I miss something? if I recall we never had a penalty against Liverpool? He should have been awarded one, but he didn't win one!

theboyangel Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Weimmann starting ahead of Emile is a sure sign Heskey will not be offered a new deal. Excellent!!! Pleased both N'Zogbia and Cuellar back in the frame. N'Zog to score the winner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Stoke: Begovic, Huth, Jones,Wilson, Shawcross, Whitehead, Walters, Delap, Etherington, Shotton, Palacios. #AVFC Really should be beating that team. Given our problems defending set pieces Im surprised and chuffed that Crouch is not playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
