  • Villa – Sheff Weds; I predict a win

    I nearly said I predict a riot, as I quite like the Kaiser Chiefs (a Sheffield band and that’s one of their songs, in case you didn’t know), but thought it might be in bad taste when referring to a…

  • Huddersfield – Villa; A tough one, but you never know.

    Well, I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling very optimistic this evening. Not so much that I see us getting the three points easily, but certainly enough to think we can get a point and possibly even sneak the…

    I only heard the last 20 minutes or so of the game and it seems a fair chunk of that was probably the worst part. Certainly it didn’t sound very good, as the home team put us under some serious…

  • Rotherham – Villa: Another 3 points?

    I was going to write a post asking whether we should re-sign Alan Hutton, as I thought it would be an interesting question. Things have overtaken me though and it’s now a done deal, as he’s taken the one year…

    First, let me get my complaint about AVTV and the live commentary out of the way. Why the hell am I paying for this when it takes me 15 minutes to access the service, meaning I miss 10 minutes of…

  • Villa – Bristol City; Should be 3 points shouldn’t it?

    It’s only a brief one, because I’m busy at work again and have hardly even had time to think about the game. But as is my want, so I’ve moved on from the pessimism I had before the Derby game…

    Well that was a very pleasant turn up for the books, wasn’t it? We thrashed our balls off at work, to try to get away early and it actually worked. I was sat in the car at 3.05 and tuned…

  • Villa – Derby; It’s all about goals isn’t it?

    God, I’ve been dreading writing my thoughts on this one. I’ve put it off and put it off, but now I’ve no choice, as I’m going to be working so will miss the game. What to say? Well I’d love…

  • Newcastle 2 – 0 Villa; Serious questions

    I’ve deliberately held back in writing this, as when you’re on a losing run as we are, it’s far too easy to go for a knee-jerk reaction isn’t it? And there’s no doubt my immediate reaction was “sack the manager”.…

    Here we go again then and it’s another game on a stupid Monday night in front of the Sky cameras. Seeing how we’ve gone around fourteen live games without a single win, that’s a bad omen in itself, but all…

  • Villa 1-3 Barnsley; There’s something very wrong at the Villa. Bruce POLL.

    in News, Opinion, POLL, Preview/Review

    Let me get this straight from the off. I’m utterly disgusted at the result today. The fact that an ex Walsall player put two goals against us, says it all. But I firmly believe that sacking Steve Bruce is not…

    Well, I’m back and it’s bloody nippy isn’t it? Straight down to it then and I’m not in the slightest bit optimistic about this game, I can tell you. I’ve tried to keep the optimism up, but there are just…

  • Villa 0 – 1 Ipswich; Simply not good enough

    I’ve decided to try and keep this post a little bit calmer (it’s still early over here, so I haven’t drunk too much yet, lol). The first obvious thing to think about is how we lined up from the off.…

    We’re 10 (or is it 11?) days into our Mexican fortnight. The weather’s superb with nightime lows of about 70, although my stomach’s still a bit twitchy. If I had loads of money, I’d be living somewhere like here six…

    It’s a bit late for thinking back to Saturday, but apologies, I just never got round to posting about the game. Whilst not wanting to gloat, I’m sure you’ll understand how sunning my skinny arse in Mexico at this time…

    Let’s face it, unfortunately Forest are a total shambles at the moment. They have no manager, an owner who wants out, the team are struggling in the league and to cap it all, there’s going to be a protest. Which…

  • Brentford, the window and sacking Bruce: My arse

    I’ve had a nightmare couple of days. I arrived in Mexico for my latest holiday on Monday night, having totally forgot what the 31st signified window-wise when I booked. So I’m in a supposed 5* hotel, yet the free wi-fi…

  • Villa 2 – 2 Preston; We threw that away

    I’m stunned. The first half sounded superb and Tony Morley suggested that the first half was the best we’d played for around two years. Indeed, it sounded like even Westwood, Gabby and Hutton were playing really well and Johnstone hardly…

  • Villa – Preston; Lansbury to be our saviour?

    Yesterday, the Evening Mail came out with a handy little tool that allows you to build your team and share it. Hence I’ve nicked it and it’s as you see above. It includes Elphick in defence, as it seemed at…

  • Wolves 1 – 0 Villa: What to do?

    in News, Opinion, Preview/Review

    Well, it wasn’t the drubbing many of us expected score-wise, but it certainly was in terms of performance. It all started poorly when Nathan Baker suffered a hamstring problem during the warm up, which amazes me in itself. Surely the…
