Ashley Young is sent off. Sunderland take the lead. Milner bundles in the equaliser. Gabby wins a penalty. Sunderland have two strong penalty claims turned down. Otherwise, it was a boring game!!
Who makes the decisions about whether a goal is an own goal or not?? Someone made the wrong call recently and it matters. Fix it!!
9 Villa players make the Actim Top 100 for Jan 6th 2009.

10 years ago John Gregory’s Villa reached 40 points after 21 games. Then things went wrong and Villa slipped down to finish in 6th. Today, MON’s Villa side reached 41 points from the same number of games, a new record. The omens are good though, shouldn’t be a case of Déjà vu.
Goals from Curtis Davies and Gabby Agbonlahor (or a Scott Carson OG) in the first half was enough for the 3 points, despite a consolation goal from James Morrison early in the second half.
The local derby game returns to Villa Park, can we expect another 5-1 type thrashing?? Well, we’re not exactly firing on all cylinders right now, but we’re still winning. With the fixtures around us it’s another case of the result being more important than the performance.
