Just like Blues 2010-11, however no chance of going down

All questions, no answers
At 2-0 down you feared the worse, at 2-2 you was pissed off that we drew yet another game, sums up the season. At least by betting a draw every game I am up this season but this season is becoming a joke in many ways. Lets look at the defence. A total joke from [...]
The Transfer Window Closed, the non event and missed chances
The transfer window gently shuts on Villa and a series of missed chances. I am angry as I write this. OK I expected little action but surely we could have afforded some decent young players with cheaper wages ? I know money on wages is tight but to see Marvin Sordell move from Watford to [...]
There may be some truth in our slogan “proud history, bright future!”
Patrick Kavangh has sent this piece in, praising the homegrown talent and optimistic for the future. There is no question as to whether Villa have a proud history: one of only 4 enlgish clubs to have won the europen cup, FA cup winners 7 times, League winners 7 times ect. The list is virtually endless [...]
Much ado about nothing – same again
Yes it is the transfer window and totally nothing to talk about. Some clowns on twitter like to think themselves clever, they are not, so we go into the game tomorrow with the same squad and no additions. Is this a must win game I ask myself. Maybe I keep saying to myself we will [...]
The modern Britain, have a fag and get treated like scum
Now yes smoking in a public place is against the law. As someone who likes the odd fag I accept the law. However thanks to this from H&V we see how the police and stewards have so little to do they go mob handed to arrest a fan who dared to have a fag at [...]
Be brave, take a risk and drop the leavers
This whole post is written on the premise that there is little chance of us going down. It is a calculated risk what I will suggest but one we must take for the future. With changes expected in the summer I believe a few players are fully aware they will be going. Certainly for the [...]
Who cares about RVP, a Mcleish diversion tactic
I give it to Mcleish, he is very good at diversion tactics. After yesterday’s game then Mcleish used the RVP incident to I believe divert away from the real issues of the game. Yes it may have been an elbow on Cuellar but it hardly changed the game and to mention it meant AM knew [...]
2 days to go and no transfers – Mcleish
So the window shuts shortly on the quietest one we have had with no real hope of quality coming in. Posted a week or so back on just how quiet the window has been and it could be we actually made a small profit this window with a tiny wage cut. So after the game [...]
The great Aston Villa throwaways
I guess what happened today was typical of all teams at times but it seems to happen a lot to us (well that is my perception !!). So lets go back in history and remember some of the best in my time at supporting the club. Many games of course been 2-0 up and blew [...]
Villa throw it all away, season over
If you want a team to throw away games then you could not pick a better one than Villa over the years. The first half went exactly as I predicted the game would. We were really good, defending well, and allowing a slow and ponderous Arsenal nothing. then when the chances came we were clinical [...]
