At last, Champion’s league. But now what happens?
So after Spurs’ defeat against Citeh it’s official. We’ve qualified for the Big Ears cup. First off, congratulations to the players, the staff, the owners,…

Villa – Liverpool; I’m not sure if I should be worried or not.
Of our last two games, Pool and Palace, I’d normally be most worried about the former, probably because it’s rare for us to beat them.…

Olmpiacos – Villa; Another European farce?
Let me say from the off that I’m sure most of you know I’ve never really believed in conspiracies and corruption in the game to…
-
Brighton – Villa; Is today the day we qualify?
I’m sure you already know, but I’ll say it anyway. It’s nothing like a prediction from me, but the simple facts are that if we…

Villa – Olympiacos; Our first European semi since 1982
The Intertoto cup that we won in 2001 obviously doesn’t count then, even though it was administered by the same Uefa that administers all the…

Villa 2-2 Chelsea; I’m sorry, but that was tactically wrong, imo.
Quite simply, we controlled the game for the first half, but for some reason that I really don’t understand, we played a low block through…

Villa – Chelsea: Is this the one?
I can’t say I’ve watched Chelsea very many times this season and if I have, it’s mostly through interest in seeing how Chucky has been…

Villa -Bournemouth; Surprise, surprise. I don’t know what to think.
I really don’t like Bournemouth. I used too, but they’re such a tricky side to play. They were absolute rubbish early in the season, but…

Arsenal 0 – 2 Villa; This could have been 4-0!
I was contemplating what to say and even if I should say anything at all, because the result today pretty much said it all for…
-
Arsenal – Villa; Minimal expectations.
What’s the saying? Expect the worst and anything else is a bonus. That about sums it up for me, as I can’t muster any confidence…
-
Villa – Lille; European quarter final
So we face a Lille side who are actually in a very similar position to us in the French Ligue 1, where they’re challenging for…

Villa 3 – 3 Brentford; Disgusted and a massive two points dropped.
Work. The curse of the drinking class. That’s the saying, but it also applies to the footy fan class as well. I didn’t finish work…

Villa 2 – 0 Wolves; An excellent, deserved win.
After what was a torrid fifteen or twenty minutes, where Wolves were sharper and frankly better than us, we managed to fight our way into…
-
Villa – Wolves; Another big game. Aren’t they all now?
So the utter waste of time that is the International friendlies is over and we’re back to the proper stuff. My disdain for these friendlies…

West Ham 1-1 Villa; I’ll definitely take that point.
I feel the footballing gods looked down on us at least a little today. I’d got the headline in my head for most of the…
-
West Ham – Villa; Another where I don’t know what to think
I’ve left it late for a couple of reasons. One, I’m either a terrible manager of my time or I just have too many things…
-
Villa – Spurs; The big one!
So I’ve made the move to Liverpool for six months and it’s been a nightmare. It’s said that moving house is one of the most…

Luton 2 – 3 Villa; That had me worrying!
Sorry chaps, I was going to write a preview, where I was going to predict a 3-1 win. I got that wrong, but wasn’t far…
