The reason I support the Villa.

At Stamford Bridge last season, we’d just beaten Chelsea, McGinn scoring a belter. I bumped into McGinn and said what an amazing change it was from Gerrard’s time. He pointed at the team coach, Emery was inside on his laptop. “That man there”, he said and got on the coach. Nuff said.

Bailey and Watkins have improved massively since Unami arrived. All down to the coaching. I said something similar years ago when we were imploding under a succession of shit managers after MON; all players are capable of improvement, it just needs a decent coach to train them. Gerard’s reign...

Easy to remember

I’m weirdly hating on the Villa shirt number font. Don’t know why…

He was also generous with his comments about Slippy when he left. Didn’t get sucked into a slanging match. Good on him.

Tough times for Potter. £12 million a year, 5 year contract, sacked after 6 months. Lean times ahead for them, shopping for own-brands in the supermarket until they get back on their feet.

79% possession in the first half! Our passing game when it works is looking really really slick. Some of the best possession football I’ve seen in a Villa team for ages. Just need a decent forward line.

Unai will probably take the rest of the season to work out who is coachable and who isn’t. If Bailey and Watkins can be improved they could be awesome. Probably maybe. I’d still like to see a decent striker in asap though…

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh ‘corse, I’ll take it. Ta very much”

Plenty of rumour-mongers will gossip to sources but there is at least one (if not more) with close links to the first team and a direct line to a journo. Some of the closest relationships are between players and back room staff. Sometimes the club informally sanctions the relationship between...

Every club has them. Close to the football operation and on a media payroll.

That’s some good business right there. I like all this ‘stealing from under the noses of…’

That’s Numberwang!

Ha. Man fanny. 👍
