MikeO Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 OK so I get to start this thread as it's my first visit to Goodison in fifteen years (don't believe it's that long but the last one was a 3-1 midweek win over Arsenal at the start of the 91/92 season...been to many, many away games in between though), and my sons first visit. Gotta be another good display and comfortable win, although can't expect Villa to be as poor as Fulham. I'm going for another 3-1..Beattie, Cahill and Arteta.

Lower Gwladys Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 i'd say a reverse result to their win on boxin day 4-0 to the blues Faddy (2) Beattie Cahill COYB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 We don't do so well against Villa, they have a good record against us recently. Call me a pessimist, but I would settle for a goaless draw. Anything else would be a bonus. ATB Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randomness Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 i dont care because if we win doubtless o leary will come out and say "we were the better side" "i got the CL SF yanno with leeds" its villa so it will be boring but its at 12:45 *Angry face* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 0-2 villa will win it.. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Go away gimp features Sorry, we should start being a bit cocky ans say we must win this game. We have got to start being confident. The team will be full of confidents As steveo says "5 wins at home" Although villa did play well against BBurn and where unlucky. We should be to good for them, although I am worried about baros and more against wier and stubbs. Although they have stood up to everythink so far 2-1 for the original and mighty blue storm troopers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 2-0 to the blues Beattie and mcfly with the goals coyb!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmatt05 Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 i was thinking about this, i was going along the lines of, yeah would be happy with a point, but after reading the above, nothing less than 3 points will do. we are playing so well, and baros jsut got taken off injured. they only have luke moore and phillips fit now, and neither are setting the world on fire. The form beets is in, with the midfield and macca, i think we should win 2-0. beets and AVM to score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randomness Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 simple formula for victory, If we win the midfield battle we win, because villa will play long ball and there strikers are all small stubbs and weir's insufficient pace, is countered by thier heading ability, Lol Ozzy/Arteta vs Gareth Barry, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 Villa lost last night and think Baros went of injured (might be wrong but turned over just before Villa scored and they were on about someone going off early. The worring thing for people is that I think we will win. Then again I though we would have beat them when we lost 4 nil over xmas. 2 v 1 Beattie and VDM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWooney Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 1-0, beattie. now some our injury worries are coming to an end we've got a much stronger squad. i'm sure the same team will start that played at the weekend. but we should have a fit Yobo on the bench if required, carsley who could be brought on to strengthn the midfield late on if were winning. and Van de Mayde to come on if were struggling attacking wise. anyone read the interview with him on the offical site yesterday banging on about some run he did, taking on a couple of people, said he could have shot but as he wanted to claim goal of the day he tried to take on another couple of people! anyone that went to the game, did he look sharp when he came on?

Mac Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 After watching the game last night, I am feeling a little more optimistic about the game on Saturday. Pack the midfield, harry them at every opportunity, give them no time on the ball and run at them through the channels every chance we get. I feel that Arteta will come into his own with a few deadly crosses we can rip them to bits. Someone is due an absolute buttf*cking off us this season, this could be it.

scouse Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) Nothing but a win here get revenge for the boxing day drubbing.. They didnt look good last nite and Baros went off injured which can only be a plus. 3-1 to the blue's Beattie brace and Stubbs to score. Ps Mikeo hope you enjoy the match and your lad gets a good result and performance from the blues. Edited March 15, 2006 by scouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scouse Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 On fire we are 7 goals in two games could have been more finally we are creating chances! Midfield weighing in with goals aswell. Did we play well? Some results went our way West Ham getting beat as did City and Charlton - Wigan, Blackburn and Bolton won though. Top ten and goal difference is getting better we may need this come end of season. Confidence is good going into the derby next week keep it up boys we want revenge remember no club has done the double over us this season so far long may it continue.

Steve L Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 Didn't watch the match, but heard Teflon lived up to his name for the Villa goal? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Teflon dived over the bloody ball for the Villa goal. Was too late getting down to block the shot which stayed on the deck. Nige would have saved it. Generally he looked dodgy and isn't commanding enough of his box. You could see the lads at the back were uncomfortable so they started not giving it back to him when they possibly could. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Teflon is very worrying, stubbs booted the ball into the park end in frustration and you can see they have not confidence in him. 4-1 was a bit flattering, considering we had two efforts cleared off the line. Our play was awful in the second half, but we now have a resiliance about us, you could see them breaking us down. The crowd where embarrasing, 3-0 up, it should have been a carnival atmosphere, but it was dead. I could have stayed in the pub and got a better atmosphere WHAT DO PEOPLE WANT As for you Gwladys street enders, where were you? That said, i'll take three points and 4-1 and a not so good performance, hope they are saving a good performace for next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 The real story of the day, don't know what the problem is...you arrive nice and early in Stanley Park... Get into the ground to have a look round.. The Blues knock in a swift three goals before half time..... Then you relax through the second half First in so we got to be last out, might be a while before we get back... One satisfied customer...

MikeO Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 We were flattered a bit though. The midfield were great in the first half, Arteta is a genius and Ossie has the look of Trevor Steven about him. TC was everywhere (and he signed my lads programme ) and Neville was steady. BT and Faddy looked confident and effective. It all went a bit iffy in the second half though, TC and Neville went missing and it was a poor goal for Wright to concede (asked him for an autograph too but he dropped the pen ). Defence looked wobbly, specially after Hendrie came on. But had a brilliant day people...thanks for the advice, we'll be back v soon!
