Aston Villa 2 Wolves 2: On balance, a fair result

Mar 20th, 2010 | Source: AVFCBlog | Category: Latest Aston Villa blogs

I say on balance it was a fair result and while we seemed to have more of the ball and seemed to put in more crosses – quickly becoming our trademark – a lot were poor and Wolves took their chances.

Not the result any of us wanted but we have it and we



Aston Villa v Wolves: Live, updates, text, banter, Twitter, video

Now – I was fairly confident with my prediction yesterday and when you look at the league table – if you predict anything other than a home win, you’re either a clown or a Wolves fan. Even the bookies have us down as clear favourites – one even calls us



Aston Villa v Wolves: Three points and fifth place

Let me get this out of the way early; we will win tomorrow. The question really is, by how many and I think I can answer that too; not many. You see, Mad Mick is going to come and defend and play exactly how we like to play tomorrow and we don’t like



Aston Villa have six players in their respective top tens

It is that time again, when I sit here bored, relaxing with my thoughts (that is from a film) and find myself clicking on one of those links that you know you shouldn’t click unless you have time to spare and a locked office door. Sorry, what was I



Aston Villa chase Robbie Keane and Hugo Rodallega and tables this season and last

Someone sent me a spreadsheet earlier this week showing games played this season against the same teams last season. Yes, I know we have done this to death and it’s not exactly news, but we are still doing better than last season.

The reason I’ve not



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

Mar 17th, 2010 | Source: AVFCBlog | Category: Latest Aston Villa blogs

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

Mar 16th, 2010 | Source: AVFCBlog | Category: Latest Aston Villa blogs

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



Heskey and Carew: The return of the Titanic

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.
