Mark Funge sent me this mail and on the assumption that I’m sure he didn’t want just me to see it, I’m happy to post it up here for all to see. It’s nice to see at least some Villa…

Aston Villa VS Southampton 1-1 Review
Before the game started, I was in the middle of writing a preview for the site which talked about how our best hope to take anything from this game was to keep a clean sheet and aim for the draw.…

Ciaran Clark Stepped Up As Leader
Ciaran Clark produced a fantastic display in yesterday’s 1-1 draw against Southampton. Going into the game, the Villa defence was labelled as ‘very weak’ by many journalists and fans who had predicted that Southampton would be able to exploit Villa…

Villa 1 – 1 Southampton; A decent point
I don’t know what to make of that game. Am I the only person who felt it was like watching a training session, for the vast part? I expected Southampton to really bring it onto us, but it just felt…

Villa – Southampton Preview; Crunch time
I don’t know why I said that really, as it isn’t really crunch time is it? Not in relegation or whatever crunch time anyway. But it is in a sense, because I get the feeling that this particular game might…

Villa in for Jonas Olsson to replace Vlaar; Seriously?
So the Mirror are saying we’re going to do the above; http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/aston-villa-plot-swoop-jonas-4635520 Olsson is 31 and according to Wiki, signed a four year contract in October 2012. So unless we get incredibly lucky, given our record of over-paying for players,…

POLL; Should Lambert stay or should he go?
I stated my case about why I believe Lambert has to go in my previous post, but I see some people are still asking for a poll, even though it seems the consensus is that he should indeed go. It’s…

Why Lambert has to go
I have to come clean straight from the off and say something that involves the “F” word. I’m Fickle. There. I’ve said it. Here’s the dictionary meaning of the word; adjective 1. likely to change, especially due to caprice, irresolution,…

West Ham VS Aston Villa Review – 0:0
For a team that has lost their last 6, this is a decent result and it was genuinely an entertaining game to watch, even more so if you are a neutral fan. Having said this, the game means nothing if…

West Ham 0 -0 Villa; A point. At last!
……..Blah, blah…….. having to work work excuses….. And so I never saw the game; as per usual lately, I’m afraid. From what I’ve read on here, it seems we were poor early on, but came back into it, only to…

Delph and Vlaar Targeting Villa Exit
Up to three Villa players could leave the club in January, with Villa’s poor form contributing to potential exits. Ron Vlaar, is yet to sign a new contract with Aston Villa and at this moment appears unlikely. Manchester United are…

What makes a big club?
After my somewhat spontaneous “burst of pride” post last night, it seems at least Nick Hawkins agrees with me; What makes a big club? Is it the trophy list they have won, or the history given we were one of…

Are Villa a small club these days? My money says NO!
I’m seeing some commenters on here beginning to question where we stand in the scheme of what is English football and I think this needs addressing. No, we aren’t the draw we were, but we are still a MASSIVE club.…

Villa 1- 2 Spurs; Another home loss
So I sneaked out of work early to make sure I could at least watch the second half of the game, only to find that the site had gone down again. Pulling my hair out, I got in touch with…

QPR 2- 0 Villa; Where does that leave us in the relegation stakes?
QPR will go down. Of that, I have no doubt whatsoever. But the fact is they beat us quite easily, with two chances that they took, as opposed to our chances that we didn’t. I really don’t know what to…

QPR VS ASTON VILLA PREVIEW
Morning All. I have calmed down a lot since the result last week, but the fear and knowledge that our team is lacking has continued to haunt me all week. I’m going to be ruthlessly honest and say that I…

QPR-Villa; a sort of preview preview.
I don’t want to step on Mr Cheese’s toes, as he’ll probably write a much better preview than I ever could, but I’ve a couple of points that I want to bring up in a more general sense. The first…

Grealish Not Going On Loan
Jack Grealish, who recently signed a 4-year deal with the club is very much under Paul Lambert’s plans this season as Villa are set to reject a loan bid from Nottingham Forest. Grealish has already featured in 5 games for…

Everton Vs Aston Villa Review – Today we were a disgrace
10 minutes into the second half I sent this to Badger, I’m not going to be able to write the review today. I’m livid, absolutely livid. Making me angry watching this shambles. Everything that can go wrong, is going wrong.…
