Burnley v Aston Villa: The natives haven't eaten since Wednesday

Burnley is a horrible place and most of their supporters wouldn't have eaten since Wednesday. It really isn't a nice place and that is why they've done so well their this season. It has to change today.

They are not going to go the season unbeaten at home and yes, I have just got out of bed. Those two things are not in anyway connected but it might, in a small way, show you how my thought process is working today and understand why I am late putting up this blog post.

I've also discovered that there is no such thing as love, it is something that we have created, much like the perfect scrambled eggs that you can get in certain restaurants and they promise that eggs are the only ingredient; it is impossible. I've just tried it an I've done everything you are supposed to and the eggs still don't come out how they are supposed to.

Saturday Speculation

A huge if, but if Manchester City make a move for Barcelona right-back Dani Alves we are going to make a move, like disco Stu, for Micah Richards. I know Alves is an excellent player but Manchester City need to concentrate on what they've got at the moment. I'd love Richards.

Watching Online

The lovely chaps at VillaStreams have a new server and for one day only they also have a special offer of 33% off for all one day passes. So, for a quid, you can watch the game today. A quid. All you have to do is use this promo code: B589BA02F2 when singing up. Don't sing up three minutes to kick off and then come here asking for help. I mean that in a nice way, honestly.

Team News

We're going to add this here as and when we get it, but there is talk that O'Neill might rest Richard Dunne because he had a game on Wednesday and is emotionally drained. Rubbish I say, he'll play, he's a strong Irish man.

The Player

Before I go and try those scrambled eggs again, click here to play a game where you can be Thierry Henry. I played for France and we won 47-1 but I am in a horrible place.

New Club Website

The club have failed. First, it isn't a new website, it is merely a facelift. They can change this as many times as they want and they will continue to fail. It isn't just about how it looks. When they finally figure it out, they'll get a decent website but until then I remain embarrassed about our club website.

Message to club; leave the system you are on. You have to now believe you are capable of walking the web without Premium TV, or Perform Group - whatever they care called now. It really isn't difficult.

Richards would be a good signing, however we are desperate for a consistent Striker

I quit my job once because of Burnley. I was working there for a week and they wanted me to stay on 3 extra weeks.

It was so grim, I had to leave.

Hopefully Villa can leave with 3 points, Burnley are not that good, they will come unstuck if the players are in the same mood as the Bolton game.

Prediction: Burnley 1 Villa 2

We don't have any room at the inn for Mr. Richards!

We have more defenders that you could shake a stick at, all of decent quality. Beye can't hardly get a game as 3rd choce right back.

We need to focus on bringing on the kids, instead of bringing in the bigger kids IMHO

yeeeah the villa are back and now we can make the blog claret and blue again. i have been reading through a lot of burnley pre match banter and have to be honest i really do like them as they seem to have a awful lot of time for the villa maybe because they nicked our kit smilies/grin.gif
wny would we want to sign micah richards? if he comes to us then he wants first team footy and to be honest i dont think he will get it here so he will be disapointed again.
i fancy a 2-1 victory today because thats the score most of the burnley fans think it will be

That is great news aboout richards but i looked in the papper this morning and it said that man city least want 13.5 millon for the player now thats just to much for a player like richars his a class player dont get me wrong but just to much and we have a class defence and i dont think we need another defender.

So they're talking about £13 mill for Richards.
Seems a lot to me.
This just makes me think even more that Luke is gone. Very strange.
I reckon Dunne will start too, as I believe Collins hasn't got over his groin strain, has he?

If you'd offered me Richards a few months ago I would have bit your hand off. If you offered me him last year, I would have bit your entire arm off.
But do we need him now? Yes he's great but would you replace collins, dunne or cuellar for him in the middle or young on the right?
I'm happy with what we've got at the moment and I'd only buy him to rotate around all 4 centre backs and sell off curtis.

Gents, has anyone used the Villa Streams website to watch away games before?. I usually try to watch them on a link through P2P.eu (or similar) however, the quality is often so bad I feel like throwing my Laptop through the lounge window! I don't mind paying to watch it as long as the link/quality is better (and the commentry is in English not jibber jabber!)

Cheers.

P.S. My prediction: Tough game but 1-0 to the Lions!

Cannock,
It's usually miles better, as it's bufferless.
It's good enough to watch on my 50" plasma, put it that way.

Every game I've seen bar one recently was in english.

Well worth a quid and you can't go wrong at that price, imo.

Best bet once you've registered is to download the suggested player.

Apparently it was us who lent them a spare kit when they started up, rather than them nicking it.... unless they were supposed to give it back and never did??
Either way, they should let us win every game out of gratitude. Reckon a point is the most we can hope for though. They've got that 'First Season in the Prem' attitude, very tough to beat at home.

i think burnley have punched way above their weight this season and logic tells me they cant continue to play like that at home as i think they would win the bloody league with a home form the way it is, so expect it to end soon and if you look at the stats they are conceeding a lot of goals of late.

Today's headline will draw Burnley supporters here and I'd like to get the disclaimer in first before the slanging match starts.

Our host is hungover and has discovered making scrambled eggs is above his pay grade. So he's feeling snotty. 'Love' has also been mentioned so it's quite possible a certain someone had a 'headache' last night.

All us Brummies are quite sure Burnley is a wonderful town, overflowing with Renaissance Arcitecture. We're also prepared to believe that you had breakfast this morning. Your team plays in claret and blue and you're not Bindippers or Mancs, so, all in all, it's obvious to me that you're proper people.

Good luck this afternoon. I know you won't be upset if I say I hope you get stuffed. I meant that most cordially.

Richards is a liability, he's cost Man City 6 points that I've seen this season and hasn't always played. An athlete & not a real player imo.

Back to Villa, I can see this being the start of that cracking run we hit last year.. 4 - 2 the Villa, Big John x 2, Warnock and Young. To be honest though I'd settle for 2 - 1 smilies/smiley.gif

Come on villa today. This is a real chance to proove we are consistent enough to challenge for the top 4. It's games like this we really need to win. However, we all know that. It will be tough and scrappy and I can't see many goals. Hopefully we can just scrape it.

villa streams was great for me for the bolton game....

How long before kick off does the streaming start? I have copied the URL into winamp like I did last time but it isn't working yet....

If Reo Coker has been dropped after a 5-1, that is ridiculous and what incentive does he have to keep playing well if that is his reward?

Utter shit.

I knew in the first 2 minutes which Carew had shown up. Misplaced pass, first header, free kick to Burnley. Useless today.

Young pulling those agonised faces at the lack of anyone on the end of yet another awful cross.

I am a very positive individual, but this is awful. Anyone know how I can get that Us Comedy back on my Villastreams, I want to get value for my £1?

We were out of Europe before it started & we will choke against in the cup as we always do when we have a chance
We have spent £ms on crap what have we created again
Many support this hit & hope football to hang on the hems of the football teams
We have a part time board, no direction, this is not how i want my club run.
Just throwing a $ at it here & there fkin off loyal supporters to make way for the prawn brigade is bllx

It really was a poor first half and it is something when you have to say that we were given a lesson on how we should be playing by Burnley

The only thing we have in the locker is more determination and more fight. We need O'Neill to bring that out for the second half .. otherwise we will lose

Fatkevs, you're an embarassment. Engage your brain for a moment and realise that we're not the only team trying to get into the top 4/5 in this league, that 5th place in November is not a reason to throw the towel in.

Nobody argues there's room for major improvements but to whine as you do is just the usual, Taglor-inspired crap for the hell of it.

Embarassing, you make me cringe mate.

Can't help the crappy weather causing a poor signal though.

As for the performance, we're being embarrassed, simple.
We look bereft of ideas and have created absolutely nothing.
Carew off and NRC on imo.

matt26may1982: given you "jokingly" suggested Roy Keane as manager, I'll consider I'm talking to someone with learning difficulties and reply accordingly.

You cannot be sure of what I'd answer to the "trainspotters", as you kindly describe your fellow Villa fans regularly blogging on here. I can however assure you I've often been critical of MON's Villa regardless of what others think.

It is, however, retarded to claim we should scrap this season outright: there's no reasonable argument that could back you in that, regardless of how we play or perform today.

I reiterate: fans like you, Taglor and Fat Cannelloni over there should be gagged until they're able to fit into society.

Now go to the Assessment Room, Mrs Thompson has a challenging Fisher Price game she'd like you to try out before your Social Worker comes in for your weekly assessment.

There's a good lad.

You are mentally in a wheelchair. Do you think i would actually want to discuss anything of a serious nature with the likes of you and most of the regular gimps here lol. Apart from the few who go on here which is not even 0.1 % of fans who else cares what you all spew out to each other on your little blog. Most of you wouldnt even know how to lace up boots, thats if you got past putting them on the right feet.

I just love winding you clowns up. And the best thing is you idiots take this thing seriously, its so funny, im just wondering where the link to the sister blog is, (train spotting for those with adenoid problems) ?

well what can you say crap result agaisnt a very poor team. There wasnt a single player who played well today. downing looked distinctly average when he came on, i hope there is more to come from him. I also really hope hesky scoring doesnt mean we have to endure more pitch time of him, he is simply terrible. Also hopefully the return of downing will see the end of sidwell, i thought there was a limit to how many times a player can miss from 2 yards, sidwell has contiuosly proved there is not. On the plus side liverpool adn man city draw, arsenal lose, if spurs dont get the points this weeked it will be as you were.

Dunno wot all this "bad performance" jazz is about.

It wasn't great, but the conditions were terrible, and there's no way they were any better than us. Especially the second half, it seemed to be all us, with them just attacking on the break. Hard place to go, we got a point, I'm happy enough with that, now let's look forward to Spuds at home, and putting in a better performance.

Few things.

1. Presume the SEN kid is now banned.
2. Note the narrow pitch again today.
3. I like Villasteams, it was worth the £1.
4. Heskey
5. I hate you all. You mocked my Heskey theory. You made me feel silly. You laughed and joked. So, I stopped putting the tenner on. Bastards.

Have to admit, that's pretty funny, especially coming from an ape.
Well done ape, have a banana. That's a good ape.
