A draw it was then; a prediction I got right for once. I felt we were probably well worth it, but I’m not convinced we did enough to warrant the win, as much as it seems many disagree with that…

Hmm. I don’t even know what to think about this game. I watched the Bournemouth-Liverpool game earlier and found myself totally despondent that Pool got a penalty because a Bournemouth player headed the ball and it deflected onto his arm…

I’ve been that busy at work lately that I actually forgot about the game yesterday and I didn’t remember until about 11pm and there was no way I was writing anything then. Today I also worked, but did manage to…

I feel like a bit of a hypocrite really, because I often say that the result is all that matters and today we got it. I also often say that I like to watch an entertaining game. We got that…

I did actually start to write a post match article last week, but other events took over and basically I just never found time to finish it. Suffice to say that while I was disappointed, I wasn’t too unhappy, as…

What to say here then? I think the title pretty much covers it really and I’m not sure there is much to add. Indeed, maybe it’s just a case of us trying to keep the score down as much as…

And the verdict is; Guilty. Of being horrendous. Punishment; the central pairing need to be replaced. Harsh? No, not for me, in the slightest. I’ve said exactly the same a few times this season and my opinion is nowhere near…

You wouldn’t believe some of the things that tie up my time. Today it’s been investigating why I can’t get the Quest channel on one TV, yet I can on the others. For some perverted reason, I love that sort…

Well, this should be easy, right? Southampton are bottom of the league, after all, aren’t they? Except we all know things are never that simple with the Villa. The saints seem strangely inconsistent. Since Christmas they’ve beaten Palace and Everton…

Well, it’s now bindingly obvious as to what Emery wants. The intention is to play, play, play short range passing at fast pace, even when we’re under pressure at the back. I don’t like it normally, especially when it involves…

The above says it all really, doesn’t it? After that disgusting performance against Stevenage, I don’t know what to think. If we can’t beat a league two team, that came with a plan, but was totally out possessed for at…

I’m really not in the mood for writing about this game, because I’m disgusted and a bit worried that I might go over the top. But I feel I want to put it down for posterity more than anything. First…

Does this still rate as probably the best weekend of the football season, the last weekend of the season apart? It certainly does for me, as there are always plenty of shocks and surprises. It’s what makes the FA cup,…

I’m fickle. There, I admit it. After what I thought was a poor show against Liverpool, I was left with no faith whatsoever in us winning at Spurs, but the Villa did what they often do and took all the…

Well, I called that one wrong, I’m extremely happy to say, although I think I’m seriously at risk of falling out of love with football. While the result was superb, the actual football bored me witless. I know we need…

After the Liverpool game I’m finding it difficult to have much confidence in the lads. It’s totally unfair of me really, because we have had very decent results against Utd and Brighton, but it’s just really easy to see how…

It’s been that long since I wrote anything that I actually had to think about how to do it. Looking at the World cup purely from a footballing point of view, I thought it was an outstanding event. Yes, the…
