romavillan Posted January 22, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted January 22, 2013 After extra time cheers, shame that! 2 - 0 at 90 mins winning is a hell of a lot better than 2 - 0 going into extra time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danceoftheshamen Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Would love to feel positive about it but i just can't see us not conceding at least 1 most likely 2 goals & i just cannot see our inconsistent forwards scoring enough. Even a 4-2 win after extra time would still put us out on away goals & i really cannot see any way for this lot to score 5 goals. Bradford are quite strong defensively too. Going on our shots to goals ratios we'd need to create around 30 chances to score 5 & that's on a good day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) No offence to Bradford but they aren't strong defensively at all, they've have lost both of the games they have played since beating us, 4-1 to Crewe and 2-1 to Oxford. The only way they will win this is if we play completely poor again, 10 squids on a Benteke brace Edited January 22, 2013 by samjp26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) 10pounds to VT if we win. Edit: And by win, I mean get to the final. Edited January 22, 2013 by Ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Nervously excited about this one tonight... Got to go for them early as an early goal coul knock the stuffing from them.. I fully expect them to sit back try to hit us on the break... Plastic flag will be thrown away, why oh why do they do it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted January 22, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted January 22, 2013 cheers, shame that! 2 - 0 at 90 mins winning is a hell of a lot better than 2 - 0 going into extra time As we are not going to keep a clean sheet this won't be a concern! In fact it's probably better for us that they don't count until ET as it's more likely to be 4-2 than 2-0! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I think yet we'll go through yet if I had a tenner to put on a result, I'd go Villa 2-1 Bradford after 90 mins. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted January 22, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted January 22, 2013 I'm concerned by how many people are suggesting 3 or 5 at the back. It doesn't work for us. League 2 side or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiezels Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 We need to avoid hoof ball at all costs. When we kept the ball on the floor of that first 20/30 mins we were fine but once we concede and started hoofing it was game over. They're used to that side of the game an deal with it all night long. Got to use the fact our players are better to our advantage and play our own game.

GingerCollins29 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 how is it embrassing? god sake get a grip!! It is embarassing because we should not be knocked out of any competition by a league 2 side. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Apparently Dynamo (magican) predicted 3 - 1, before first leg and has predicted 1 - 1 tonight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCollins29 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 None of that midfield 3 are CMs. Would be torn apart. Agree with playing 3 in the middle though I see your point but Ireland is a CM. Warnock is not but has experience of being a DCM. NZogbia is in there because I wanted to be attacking. They are imo the best 3 options as Bannan, Herd and Delph are terrible, terrible football players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AValon Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 If Bradford concede early, they'll crumble. Their keeper had safe hands in the first leg, but pretty much everything went down his throat. This time could be different...very different. The deciding factor, though, could still be the crowd. It will be totally on top for Bradford from the off. Nerves and the extreme volume of noise going up from a full VP could prove the undoing of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAndLoyal Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 We need all four sides of the ground standing and everyone, even those of you who choose not to sing usually, to give the lads our vocal backing tonight for 90 minutes. I watched the Blackburn Villa-Park semi last night and we were loud, but only on occasions and we STILL let how the team was playing on the pitch determine how vocal we were. We can get away with that against a poorly supported club like Blackburn. We cannot do that tonight! Bradford have almost 7,000 fans and will be singing all night long - they have nothing to lose - this is their cup final tonight and they are well up for it!! We need to forget the negative thoughts, and forget anything else that has happened this season. We need to drown out the Bradford fans and inspire and roar our lads on to victory - whatever course the game chooses to take. The Holte and lower north will all stand - we need the Trinity and Doug to follow suit and create a hostile atmosphere like Bradford did at VP. We have 90 minutes to turn this around. 90 minutes to make a difference. That difference could be the fine line between another Wembley cup final, or not. It could even be the fine line between turning our season around, or not. I hope every Villa fan inside that ground tonight chooses to make a difference. If they do, we have a bloody good chance. Come on the Villa boys! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PriceyDownunder Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I have a feeling that we'll score a few and be heading for the victory on aggregate then Bradford will score a soft goal from a set piece and that will be that Villa to concede a late goal? Where do you get this stuff from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
