Saint-Armstrong Posted 21 September, 2012 Share Posted 21 September, 2012 Saw that on twitter just now. MLT re-tweeted something about this afternnon Is it his account or a fake one (gazza's not MLT)? Fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stepgar Posted 21 September, 2012 Share Posted 21 September, 2012 Only an idiot would put it on twitter the day before the game. But wouldn't surprise me if he did start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 21 September, 2012 Share Posted 21 September, 2012 (edited) Hmmm....if you do a search on Facebook for 'Paulo Gazzaniga' there is only one page with that profile picture and that has just 13 'fans' (aka followers) and is quite clearly not his personal page. My money is on that screenshot being a fake. You can hide your FB page from appearing in any searches, so that doesn't really mean much. Though I'd say this looked much more like his personal page, and as you've said, it's not that other one : http://www.facebook.com/paulo.gazzaniga.1 So in summary, Gazzaniga rumour debunked.

Tokyo-Saint Posted 21 September, 2012 Share Posted 21 September, 2012 Didn't one of the younger lads put on twitter about having to sing in front of the first team (giving away that he was going to play) and then start last season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capitalsaint Posted 21 September, 2012 Share Posted 21 September, 2012 Can't imagine too much of Villa's gameplan would be based on who is in goal. It's one of the least important positions to reveal early, and it isn't as if they'd have much time to change their tactics even if it was true.

St Chalet Posted 21 September, 2012 Share Posted 21 September, 2012 Davis Clyne - Fonte - Maya - Fox Schniederlin - Ward-Prowse Puncheon - Ramirez - Lallana Lambert I reckon this will be the starting XI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kraken Posted 21 September, 2012 Share Posted 21 September, 2012 I reckon this will be the starting XI Davis for JWP and that's it, IMO. Also wouldn't be surprised if Gazza is actually in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 21 September, 2012 Share Posted 21 September, 2012 Just had a look at a Villa forum, majority of them expecting a win, with quite a few predicting that they'll hammer us. Also some saying we're down already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannysfc Posted 21 September, 2012 Share Posted 21 September, 2012 Am looking forward to the game along as I see a Response after getting Spanked 6-1 by Arsenal last weekend and would be Great if we do Win which I think we will 3-1 with goals from Lambert, Lallana and Schneiderlim/Clyne and Bent for Villa But We'l See!!! Would also like to see Ramirez Start his Home debut which would be Good too!!! Does anyone know what the rough attendance will be too!?! COYR!!!

student Posted 22 September, 2012 Share Posted 22 September, 2012 Tommorow is the biggest game of the season for you imo, not taking points would be disasterous and winning could really set you off.

Saint Fan CaM Posted 22 September, 2012 Share Posted 22 September, 2012 After hearing the lengths that NA went to at both pre-match press conferences, repeatedly telling journos that he will not give any team news out until 2pm tomorrow, and going into some depth to explain why - if PG has really done this then the boy's in the poo bigstyle. Frankly I think it's a wind up. I think so too. Cannot honestly see NA risking this game on PG - would be a shock. On the game itself, I am very much looking forward to it and think Saints could win, however I suspect we will be 2-1 up with 10 minutes to play and Villa will come back with a Bent substitution and goal to draw 2-2. Bitter sweet once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tokyo-Saint Posted 22 September, 2012 Share Posted 22 September, 2012 but that was the Carling Cup, not the same thing. Doesn't matter if it is the heineken cup or the world cup the principle is the same. Some young lad gives it away on twitter that he will be in the first team and then is.

dubai_phil Posted 22 September, 2012 Share Posted 22 September, 2012 Rough Crowd. Bent Substitutions. Jeez, glad I'm gonna be watching from the safety of the pub Re Gazza, sounds like reverse psychology. Give the youngster plenty of time to get his head ready for the game in training and let him tell his mates so they can get to the game to watch.

Looking forward to today, think we will win, probably 2-1, just hope we play like we did against the Mancs, and not how we did against Wigan.

The Kraken Posted 22 September, 2012 Share Posted 22 September, 2012 Ticket update; 568 tickets still available, so hopefully the walk up numbers will mean we get close to a full house. Around 60 tickets have suddenly become available in block 1; all towards the back of the stand. Obviously they'd been held back for some reason, who knows what. Hopefully there aren't others blocks of empties that haven't been released, as per Wigan and Man Utd. And if anyone fancies being generous today, me and some mates will be down at the ground bucket rattling before the game for the Saints Foundation. Every little helps....!
