The Pompey bells will be silenced with Captain Jack
Any quarter final in any cup competition is vital for any club but the desire amongst the Villa fans is enormous for some silverware and there is no doubt that this competition represents the best chance we have had since MON has been at a club. However as usual we face a club in a [...]
FA CUP Draw – Blackburn at Home
Well, well, decent home draw for us for once. Tough side but not clever away from home, probably will not be a TV game so 3PM Saturday FA cup KO as well IT WLL BE OUR YEAR !
Villa players on loan – reminder
We have seen a fair number of Villa players go out on loan to varying success and three more this week. This is a great tribute to the youth system at Villa and remember despite this lot on loan we are still clear in the reserve league !! Nathan Baker – Lincoln Eric Lichaj – [...]
Over confidence for Spurs, a bonus for Villa ?

To that List Richard Dunne is a very welcome addition so it was anticipation I watched tonight’s play off game against France. For a long period [...]
