Aston Villa (A) | Pre-Match Thread

This is the least interest I have had in a match since the Auto Windshield Trophy, (Mansfield?)

Unless your at work you will be keeping an eye on things , very important we stop Manure's momentum before they get too cocky.

I predict a 2k plus page length a record for a mid week game against a side that can do nothing but make our charge to the title a bit harder if we stuff up.

I’m looking forward to the game tomorrow. Not going to waste my time thinking about yesterday’s announcement, it won’t happen!

I think that is the right approach to take , we can have our best season yet trophy wise in terms of the achievements and goals the club has set for itself since the new owners took over in a single season so why focus on anything else as a club and supporters.

the super league will play out or not as they case may be in years to come.

What I do know is nothing supporters do in terms of protests will do little in both the short term and long term to change the passage of time , we might think it will and its dutiful to voice opinions and concerns but if clubs are prepared to be part of another European League then so be it.

the best players and the best run clubs no matter how the revenue streams are distributed want to test themselves against the best as often as they can its in their DNA and always will be.

match-going fans contribute a tiny proportion of income, compared to TV /cable. Same with US pro sports. This is behind the ESL, The giant US broadcasters and financiers are formidable foes. spectators are not even on their radar, they've seen canned crowd noise during the pandemic and seen the way to manage without fans in the ground. Boycott all we like, doubt we will make them go away...

Agreed, all this shit news has put a real dampener on the rest of this season. What unbelievably shit timing for this superleague bollocks to come out, just as we were on for our best season ever. So whatever we do end up winning will count for very little now

Behave , this season has nothing to do with future plans , the boys have worked fucking hard and deserve whatever we win

Absolute rubbish. Why does a suggested ESL diminish any of this year’s achievements

Kaz is spot on whatever we get from this season and lets hope its a treble we deserve and under trying circumstances.

Lets forget about the noise of another Euro League for a while its getting to the stage where some as saying it can and will be responsible for derailing our season which is a load of bollocks.

It looks like the PL are not yet going to kick us out or dock points. Pep seems to be sat right on the fence and seeking clarification.

this season will play out as is unless the health authorities decide its too much of a public health risk to play out due to COVID 19 and at this stage that is unlikely given what has occurred to date.

fuck it lets smash these ffs
