As an example Benton Park view (HMRC/DWP) will be freed up in 2027, there were some rumours it'd been looked at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand If someone guaranteed me four points from the next two matches and gave me a choice of who we'd beat I'd take beating villa and drawing with these which could well happen anyway. This could be tougher than villa depending on how villa come out of their PSG encounter. I mean, I'll quite happily take two wins out of the two don't get me wrong chaps.

Chaser 1432 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Villa will want to avenge their defeat but must be tired after all their effort. We've cruised to a huge victory so tails up and energy levels will be high. Anything at Villa Park is a decent result I'd say. Our fixtures look pretty decent compared to others. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
