I was in two minds about if I should start this one, but there’s hardly anything else to talk about and we know it’s going to dominate. I have some very strong political views, but this is not the place…

Brighton 1 – 2 Villa; An away win!
Well, what a great result that is. I actually forgot about the game because I’ve been busy, which meant I missed the first few minutes and their goal. What an absolute clanger by Martinez a result of us trying to…

Manure – Villa: Carabou cup. Will they be playing properly?
So we meet again very soon after we spanked Manchester Utd on Sunday. Sorry, that sentence just fills me with delight and I was just repeating it to myself. It’s just such a rarity and I’m making the most of…

Villa 3 -1 Manure; Have it! and the ghost is exorcised
I’ve been saying for ages, probably along with many others, that Man Utd are really not a good team. And today, if you’d taken the club colours away, you’d have thought that we were Man U. We just looked a…

Villa – Man U; What to expect?
I don’t dislike United as much as I have done in the past, mainly because they’re not winning anything. Well, no more than usual anyway, but I do have an intense dislike for playing against them. It used to be…

Newcastle 4-0 Villa; A Jeckyll and Hyde performance
Trust the Villa to go from a 4-0 win to a 4-0 defeat in a week. Sometimes I just don’t know how we do some of the things we do, honestly. I thought in the first half we actually did…
-
Newcastle – Villa; A step too far?
I’m a lot more upbeat than I have been for a while when it comes to the Villa, for obvious reasons and I expect us to play better, particularly as it looks like the players will be allowed to play…

Welcome Unai Emery!; Brilliant recuitment
So it’s welcome to the club then Unai. Villa confirmed a few minutes ago that Aston Villa have signed Villareal manager, Unai Emery. And I have to say I think that’s a brilliant piece of business. I really can’t see…

Villa 4- 0 Brentford; Who saw that coming then?
What a difference sacking a useless manager makes, eh? While of course I’m chuffed with that result, I think it leaves me with lots of questions about the players. The game first and how refreshing was that to see? MOTM…
-
Villa – Brentford; A new beginning
As one sorry chapter in Villa’s history has come to an end, so another one begins and hopefully it’ll be better. Today’s game then, is against a Brentford side that are managed by Thomas Frank, who has been touted as…
-
Gerrard sacked; So why am I worried?
Well, we all knew it was coming, didn’t we? and it was only a matter of when. Apparently Nas Sawaris was fuming when Luiz got his red card and stormed out of the directors box, with Purslow in hot pursuit.…
-
Fulham 3-0 Villa; Steven Gerrard, get out of my club.
That’s what the fans sung at one stage and rightly so. Fulham hadn’t kept a clean sheet this season. Until they played us. And it was Fulham’s best win for nine years. And then the woman commentator said that it…
-
Fulham – Villa; Has he been sacked yet?
Well, apparently not and we can only wish. The first thing Steve Gerrard mentioned in the Email I got from the club today mentioned how we’d got no new squad problems because Cameron Archer is fit after suffering from a…

Villa 0-2 Chelsea: Gerrard sacked in the morning?
So I called the result right, but it’s no consolation. I actually think that performance was better than we’ve seen for a good while. It has to be said though, that I never really got the feeling that Chelsea were…
-
Forest 0 – 0 Villa; That’s it, Gerrard has to go.
Every now and then I look at our upcoming games. Sky have saved me the trouble and showed the seven fixtures leading up to the World cup break. And I struggle to see which one of them we can win.…
-
Nottingham Forest – Villa; A fixture missed
So it’s been 23 years since Forest were last in the top flight. That’s a long time and while I can think of bigger clubs that ought to be at the party (Sunderland, for example) I do feel their history…
-
Leeds – Villa; Am I bovvered?
I’ve found it hard enough to stay interested in the Villa when we are playing let alone not playing lately, so the Queen’s demise and a break for a money grabbing tournament that few care about was the last thing…
-
Villa – Man City; I hope Martinez’s back is okay!
I think about this game and struggle to stop myself from laughing. It’s really not funny, but if I don’t laugh about it, the possibilities of what could happen are just too depressing to think about. I said before the…

Another weekend, Another loss. No surprises
The following has been submitted by Bradley Ricketts. Cheers Bradley! Well, there it is. Another loss for Aston Villa, and the worst part is that it was again a very poor performance. I seriously can’t understand how Gerrard can watch…

Villa – West Ham; Worried is the only word
I said in the replies midweek that I had no faith in the Villa as a team at the moment. After a few days nothing has changed and even though West Ham are rooted to the bottom of the table…
