End Of Season Review – 2009/10 Results

Written by Dan on May 14, 2010

As part of the 2009/10 Season Review, I thought it wouldn’t be bad idea to actually list all 52 games that Villa played during the season in order. I’ve highlighted the scores of the games that we lost – there’s only 11 – and provided links to Statshacks where available. There’s some summary statistics at the bottom. Plenty more coming, I’m just a bit slow getting to it.

It’s taken a little longer to pull this post together than I anticipated, but it was an interesting walk down memory lane.  It’s funny how some games feel like they were just yesterday, others seem so long ago now. Take your time scanning through the games and see if you can recall how you felt about the season at the time compared to now when we know how it all finished.
