[Archived] Carling Cup

[LeChuck]

Interesting team selection tonight...

You think? I think it's terribly unimaginative myself, I was expecting us to be more experimental.

..................... Bunn

Chimbonda Nelsen Givet Olsson

............ Jones .. N'Zonzi

.. Emerton .. Pedersen .. Hoilett

................... Benjani

Unless I've got that wrong, it's the same basic shape with a few changes of personnel. I was hoping we'd look at alternative to Pedersen behind the front man because he's been poor there so far, he offers no goal threat unlike Dunn.

Possession (%)Villa 68 - 32 Rovers

Still hoofing it I see!

[1864roverite]

Scunthorpe winning 1-0 v manure and the winking ref just boioked the scorer after the goal of his life. What a sad twit he is.

[rovers1995]

Scunthorpe 1-0 Man Utd

[brian_gallagher85]

United losing at Scunthorpe in the League Cup....again!

Gibson the prick

[G Somerset Rover]

Where the hell are any goals in this side? (I do think that but says in the hope that they prove me wrong)

[Tim Southampton Rover]

Wright booked for over celebrating after scoring against United.

The most stupid rule in football. What is the point of it.

[Exiled_Rover]

And then Utd come back and score an equally good goal.

As for the Rovers team - the biggest sign yet we need some investment.

[USRoverME]

There are Americans in the goal and defence for Villa, if we can't score on 2 Americans, we're doomed.

[Exiled_Rover]

Scunthorpe play better football than we do.

Hi Lechuck,

Sorry I didn't mean my comment as a positive, I'm in full agreement with you.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Newcastle 2-1 up against Chelsea. Wonder if we might see some of the big guns go out tonight?

Surely a huge incentive to get a positive result.

[67splitscreen]

Geordies just gone 2-1 up. after Chelsae took the lead.

[Nelsta]

Quick 1995, say Villa are battering us

CryerRovers:

Ridiculously silent here at Villa Park. Only noise coming from Rovers' following and has been all game
