Post-mortem: Aston Villa leave Wigan with three points and sit within touching distance of fourth

If you saw the game last night, there is nothing that I can write in the opening paragraph to justify things, so instead, I’ll let other do the talking. Instead, I’ll wish the Irish a happy Saint Patrick’s Day. I have a bit of Irish in me, so I’ll be

Aston Villa at Wigan: Live updates, team news, banter and a must win game

It isn’t must win in the sense that if we don’t win it is the end of the world or we won’t be able to feed the family, but it really is must win if we are to keep any aspirations of finishing in the top four alive. Sure, some will say it isn’t, but even

Im going to try and avoid any form of unintentional doom mongering or anything that can be construed in some form as negativity, otherwise Churchill will verbally burn me at the stake, but I am going to talk about the two that played up front for us on



Aston Villa at Wigan: Short preview and prediction

Mar 15th, 2010 | Source: AVFCBlog | Category: Latest Aston Villa blogs

Wigan have drawn the same and only lost one more than Stoke have at home this season so it must be a hard place to go, so I guess some will happily take a point tomorrow night. I won’t, not at Wigan, a place where we have only ever lost once.

Hey all, hope you’ve been well. You’re looking great! It’s been a long time since I’ve written on here; between having a young child, a pregnant wife, a foam business to run and no internet for a while, it’s been difficult to find the time to watch

Another gap for the internationals and we’re back to league business. At home to Chelsea in the live match this Saturday after Milner, Gabby and Heskey did their bit in making sure that England sewed up the easiest of tasks in getting us over the line

I didn’t enjoy the result against Blackburn. I didn’t enjoy watching Delph and Petrov play together in the middle. I didn’t enjoy seeing Villa’s name come out of the hat away to Sunderland. I don’t like the way NRC is being treated, naughty boy though



Winners and Sinners!!

Mar 15th, 2010 | Source: Aston Villa Blog | Category: Latest Aston Villa blogs

The winners were clearly Aston Villa, over a very ordinary Portsmouth side, and, of course, Martin O’Neill over Nigel Reo Coker after their little spat last week. NRC is now back in training and has apparently said sorry for the kerfuffle.

There’s a very solid look about Aston Villa going from the result and performance against Birmingham City. Brad Friedel had a couple of long range shots to take care of but I can’t remember him having to do anything else of note. James Collins and
