Bristol City – Villa: A preview of sorts and thoughts on things going on



Bristol City away should be a banker and straightaway I think it will be; I’ll say that from the start.

That perhaps seems high-handed on my part, but sorry, Bristol fans, I expect to beat your team, it’s as simple as that. You loaned Nathan Baker, who wasn’t deemed good enough for us at the time, after all?
Except many Villa fans thought he was better than that.

I’ve read that Bristol want to buy/loan him, while many Villa fans don’t even rate him.
So what does that tell us?

Well, to me it demonstrates a gulf in expectations.

While I have the utmost regard for Bristol City, I think this is the sort of game we will have to win if we’re going to show any sign that we’re going to be promoted at the first attempt.

It’s difficult to explain what I mean, but if we really rate the Villa as a class apart from the rest of the Championship along with Newcastle, we have to win this game; it’s as simple as that.

Sadly, I don’t think we’re a class apart at all, although it might come in time.

Which is why I’m hoping that we’ll have enough about us to scrape a 1-0 win.
And that’s my prediction.

    1. Like ooh ah says we need the second one us never enough. Had it know we will be struggling for a draw

    1. Its seems we can’t finish a game off. What is going on play well for half a game . Oohah what can I say.

      1. I hate to say I told u so but!!! Same old villa I’m afraid though I thought we’d get a draw today tbf. As soon as we concede we go to pieces we are supposed to have leaders in the team now what a joke that is

      1. Even the scum are winning 2.0 v Norwich goi g to be embarrassing when we play them they will kick us of the park

  1. What can I say OohAh , I am not happy we cant finish a game off. Since this league started we only play well for one half.

    1. Still can’t believe people on here saying we will get 2-3 goals apart from Rotherham who are the whipping team in the division we are barely averaging a goal a game. It’s pathetic. McCormack dosnt seem to be the saviour we thought he was and don’t get me started on Ayew quicker we get rid of him the better

    1. Even they have chance of going up than us. Already 7 points behind leaders ffs. We are more likely to finish bottom 6 than top 6 this year. RDM out

  2. Me and Oohah told you all not to underrate Bristol City, how anyone can think we have too much quality for the Championship is beyond me. Oh, and Bristol have a young, up and coming manager, we don’t.

      1. Oohah I did say not sure to the post from badger, you got it down for a draw, I’m not at the minute convinced with our manager and coachings,

        1. Me neither I thought it would be low scoring draw tbh I couldn’t see us winning even when we went 1 up. I’m not convinced either I never wanted RDM but not sure if there is anyone else now so we are stuck with him
