  • Fulham – Villa; Perhaps the ultimate test? I’m surprisingly confident

    So with me worrying somewhat that we might not be able to sustain our run against the Blues, it would seem we actually performed really well, with us dominating the game and grabbing a well-deserved 3 points that kept the…

    There you go, it’s right at the top of the post, so you can vote and don’t have to read my prattle if you don’t want to. I have to confess that I’m worried about this one. We’ve had a…

    Well, I know it’s easy to think that we should easily whup Burton tomorrow, but we all know it doesn’t necessarily work like that does it? At least with the Villa, it doesn’t. Still, given that Burton’s goal-scoring record is…

    Wow, what a win that was! I have to be honest and say that in my opinion, Utd were the better side tonight, with them looking the more aggressive and creating more chances. And after about 80 minutes, I was…

  • Transfer window update through my eyes; Very little happening, imo.

    So there’s no game tomorrow, which is quite good news on my part, as I would have had to miss it yet again, if there was. It’s poor really, but I actually appreciate us playing the evening games, as it…

  • Villa 3 – 1 Barnsley; Whatever you think, you can’t knock it.

    If I’d had time to do a preview, it was going to be something along the lines of “well, we beat the Tykes 3-0 on their patch, so surely we can expect the same today?” To then counter that it…

  • Notts Forest 0 -1 Villa; Disciplined, professional and the experience showed.

    Well, Steve Bruce will feel justified in playing that weakened team in the FA cup and fair play to him, as today’s result says he got it right. Forest play some nice football, but they totally lack when it comes…

    And I’ll bet I get this one right, one way or the other. I’m being somewhat flippant, but the truth is I haven’t a clue as to how this one is going to go. Bruce making a total bollocks of…

    I’m gutted that none of you have questioned why I haven’t posted lately. I could have pegged out and none of you would care, it seems! Nah, I’m only joking; the site is most important and my views are only…

    It’s a funny old game indeed. Just when everything was looking really bleak, so we get a superb (but awful quality) win at Middlesbrough and then cap it with a 5-0 trouncing of Bristol City. Apparently it was our biggest…

  • Middlesbrough – Villa; Two hopes of anything here, I reckon

    Whilst thinking about this game, I’ve been nosing around the Birmingham Mail site and came across an Erdington band’s version of the song “Fairytale in New York”. I didn’t listen to it, but it’s apparently quite good, as it’s typically…

    I’m not going to dwell on last night’s game, but I will say I thought it was a disaster waiting to happen, with us playing Whelan and Jedinak in the same team. Whelan’s form has been poor lately and along…

    I’m really not sure that I have much to say that’s any different from what I’ve said in the last few weeks, to be honest. It’s very much the same old, same old, where we just have to keep winning…

    While this was a great game for a neutral to watch, it was equally as bad for a Villa fan, because we were just so poor in defence. Quite simply, after going two goals up within 10 minutes, the vast…

  • Derby 2- 0 Villa; maybe a bit of perspective?

    Ok, I expected to lose this one, so it’s not a major loss, in my opinion. I called the score too, so hey hoh. But it’s really not that important and while I see some of you are majorly upset,…

    If you’ve read my replies in previous posts recently, you might have seen that I was invited to attend this game with a Derby workmate. I’d have had to sit in the Derby seats, but that would have been ok,…

    Well, I don’t suppose there would be any surprise if I was to say we need another striker to help us out during our current deficit. But I can’t say I’m convinced by any of the rumoured targets. I hate…

    I attempted my usual drive up the A38 to work at six o’clock this morning and only made it as far as the Horse and Jockey in Sutton, before I decided that I was being stupid and headed back home.…

    It’s only immediate thoughts, but I’m reasonably happy with the result. I believe we were the better team overall, even though we had a poor first half. We dominated the second half and if it wasn’t for some very poor…

    While Leeds have had a really poor run of late (they’re 22nd in the current form table over the last 10 games), they have actually won two out of their last three, which may well mean they’ve had their really…
