Spot on Matt, I’ve written him off in all of the last three pre-seasons but have been feasting on humble pie for the past few weeks

Well it’s that time of year again - looking forward to it all ready

UTV

In a pub in Manchester full of Arsenal fans - love it!!!

They did in the group stage but not when it matters 😆😆😆

So William is in Rome right now for the Pope’s funeral - will he be back in time for the kick off at Wembley?

When are the Semi- Final tickets going to be sent out?

With Liverpool losing today the treble is mathematically still on for Aston Villa

Are you watching Olsen?

Good result - thing I’m most happy about though is that’s three clean sheets in a row for Aston Villa

Where do we sign for this?

Has Anthony Gordon got a doppelgänger in the Newcastle team or is that him with a winners medal around his neck as the trophy gets lifted?

He was a Villa fan & supplied the HT music at Villa Park so may be right

I remember buying my first CD player in Rackhams only to realise on the way home I’d forgotten to by a CD. 5:25pm on a Saturday I dashed into Andy Cash Records & that was the first one I picked up.

Love it when you hear ‘You’re Shit Ahhhh’ as Olsen takes a goalkeeper and you wonder who is singing that the loudest - Villa or Brentford fans?

Same as the last game then

Ditto, my Dad wanted to go at 2-0 but I begged him to stop (good job)

Can’t agree more - it was at a Wonder Stuff gig that I stumbled across The Lottery Winners. Seemed like karma as it was at a New Order gig that I came across a very young Wonder Stuff. Always listen to the support bands!

Forty-seven years ago today a young lad finally got his wish to go to Villa Park to attend his first Aston Villa game with his family. Standing in the Witton End terrace below the North Stand, seeing a goal from this great man - where have those years gone? #VTID

Blocked them years ago on Twitter so not seen that - mind boggles at what goes through some people’s head

99% of Gargoyles look like Andrew Tate

Seem to remember a few years ago planning a holiday in February around the May Bank holiday thinking we had no chance of the Play Offs only to cancel it when we went on a 10 game winning streak. It’s not over until the fat lady sings…

Last month in the FA Cup

At least Olsen keeps up his usual three goals conceded record

Assume we are really going for the FA Cup this season then

You’ve just articulated exactly what I was looking at yesterday. Liverpool are away & Arsenal probably too but there is all to play for the other two (probably three) CL places.

Away

This one is hard to take - RIP Rick

To be fair that’s a crap choice of biscuits. L is probably the best of a bad bunch

Still waiting for mine - sons came on Saturday!!!

Fantastic news but am I showing my age if I ask who are they?
