Watching the game at the brewery in North Carolina. Looking good so far. We've been downing pints since before 9 AM.
I worked and still play golf with an ex-Villa player.
He was there when Ron Atkinson was the manager.
Andrew Mitchell.
He still plays for a local team and is about 50

If Ipswich win, it will put them 6 points behind Wolves, but 12 behind I think will be too much ground to make up
I expect there was lots of cheering at Norwich, who we will look forward to playing against next season
My lot scrambled a draw in the 94th (I think) minute but it's awful football. After I'd committed to another season ticket.
Interestingly (?) i just watched Match of the Day. An 80 minute programme. I timed the action shown at 38 minutes. Actually I was surprised it was that much (half!) but it really should be more as hardly anyone is interested in "expert ANALysis".
I never watch it nowadays as they love the sound of their voices and generally talk a load of bollocks - plus I cannot stand Lineker, the arrogant twat with his pathetic excuse of a "beard"
Oh and also I noticed that they still kneeled down before the game at Villa v Forest. I thought that was all ancient history.
I thought they were just kneeling down to pray that they won't lose, with Europe on both their radars. It's going to be a scramble for 3rd and 4th, could be interesting to see who gets there.
Looking at the remaining fixtures, the favourites are probably Forest & Man City, but I can see Newcastle & Chelsea pipping them both because they don't have the added hassle of least cup FA semis like the other two. Should be an interesting run in.

Pathetic
Really? I thought Chappers' post was pretty good. 🤔

At least I don't rely on government hand outs to pay my electricity bills like some scrounging pauper!
