[Archived] Villa Semi Final Match Preview

[Amo]

Oh, look. Pedersen took a SHORT throw and we almost scored in the build up... Unlucky, Kalinic.

[Muddboy]

Unlucky Nicko.

However, gonna have to start putting them away FFS!

[DE.]

Just got home from work hoping for something positive... so much for that. Kalinic as the lone man, what in the world is wrong with Sam Allardyce? A home leg of a cup semi final and we're treating it like an away game against Chelsea.

This has to end.

[beerwins]

WOW look what happens when you put a cross in!

[brfc4ever]

I feel so sorry for Kalinic

[Amo]

WTF. The commentator criticizing Kalinic's header. An inch to the left and it would have been a goal.

[rebelmswar]

Steven Ried coming on for Salgado.

[LeChuck]

Honestly...I've never known a striker as unlucky as Kalinic. He's brilliant at getting in the right position though, as long as he doesn't let this bad luck get to him he'll be a very regular goalscorer.

[hollowsr]

Olsson doing well with crosses!

[promoted2001]

Well we have some shots at least. Now if we get 20 or so more we might score a goal!

[roversfan1]

18595 crowd tonight

[G Somerset Rover]

This is better!!

Why couldn't we start like this? Just need to watch out for Villa on the break now because that's how they like to play.

[Mr. E]

Extremely close a couple of times now. But what is our extremely close to goals ratio this season? 20 to 1 ?

[The Rover of Finland]

Dunn should have shot better. Emerton was out 9 months and was excellent when returned. Now he was 3 weeks and is awful.

[BRFC1995]

If away goals count then at 1-0 I have no hesitation in declaring we are officially 100% not going to wembley 1-0 is a mountain when your this bad

[hollowsr]

Dunn should have shot better. Emerton was out 9 months and was excellent when returned. Now he was 3 weeks and is awful.

Bit harsh I think, he's not been great tonight but looked promising at times, only person with pace in midfield

[Muddboy]

Someone shoot Pedersen!

I don't understand how someone can put such good balls into the box one minute and then completely screw things up the next.

He needs his head looking at!

[Dan]

Much improved, but why did we have to wait 45 minutes and make it doubly difficult? We need a 2 goal cushion at least because we'll be battered by Villa at Villa Park.

[Jackson]

Hang on lads, I've found a better manager.......

[promoted2001]

We need to win with our away record! So a goal now would be nice

[beerwins]

Why do we start so sh1t and clueless I dont understand?

I think we need Sams on the touch from the first minute.

[ada2020]

I take it back, we're actually showing some bottle now.

[hollowsr]

Steven Ried coming on for Salgado.

How do you know this?

[novella]

What a difference it makes playing it on the floor.

[Amo]

Thanks to Sam I just had to see Joe Villa jiggling their man-boobs...
