I think the only thing Villa can take away from tonights terrible draw was the attendance, 39,874, not bad for a midweek against Boro (they only had 200 away fans), more people at VP then Stamford Brige or Goodison!

The grand slam games as you call them, are gona play a huge role. Personally I think thats where Chelsea are gona fall down, because Grant seems to be terrible in the big games, doesn't have that extra tactical ability.

Exactly .. looking at the record so far against the big 3 , we are **** with Grant .. man U 2 0 Chelsea
T'ars 1-0 Chelsea (should have been 3-0)
Chelsea 0 0 Liverpool (Benny Hill show - & Pool would have won if Torres was playing) ..

1/9 points ... a farce .. I hope that Sun article was true about Mou coming back ..

Can't help but notice the lack of a jackdaw comment in here. Must only come out for the bad results.

I put a bet on Chelsea winning 5-0 and lampard bagging a hatrick! Thought too little of them. Mind you I did say Anelka for the other two.

Super display last night.

p.s. The idea of Arsenal getting 14 points from a possible 27 is just silly. It would be their worst run of form so far this season by some distance.
The idea of Liverpool picking up 24 from 27 is equally nuts, considering that they are playing the other big 3

Lol, I did say that I spent 30 seconds coming up with the points

~Rebel~ · 13-03-2008 03:24PM

has Anelka scored for chelsea actually since he joined?

jesus_thats_gre · 13-03-2008 03:29PM

He has.. Think he scored last night..

Opps, he didn't.

Scored 1 in the FA cup though.

I'm telling you go for a Birmingham win!

For at least the last 10 seasons every time Utd suffer a domestic defeat(excluding Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool) I always back against that team in their next game - the most recent being City who went on to lose at home to Everton - it's amazing how often it happens.

I have won loads of money doing this.

how much did you lose then:D

jackdaw · 13-03-2008 03:36PM

YEs a great win .. 6/1 .. nice to get the goal difference up ...

maybe we can win the league .. MAYBE ...

no chance in the CL though ...

Best wishes to Barnsley in the FA cup ...

VP is bigger than both ? So it should have more in it.

Not Always:

this corresponding feature through the past few seasons has been in and around the 35K attendance

and they were at the weekend

Nearly 40k for a mid week against Boro? then winds of change through VP are in effect!
