Blackburn 0 Aston Villa 2

A well earned 2-0 victory extends the away record to seven consecutive victories. Elsewhere, Chelsea are held by Hull. 13 games to go and this Aston Villa side are still cruising.

Blackburn vs Villa

Villa travel up to Ewood Park looking to extend their 100% away record to 7 games. The teams around us in the table have fixtures that are unlikely to do us any favours, so this is yet another must win game.

The First 100

Martin O’Neill has now taken charge of 100 Premiership games at Aston Villa and it’s a great opportunity to compare his league record with his predecessors. So… great, or greatest??

Wigan Frustrate, But Unbeaten Run Continues

Villa fail to leapfrog into second place after a goalless draw at home to Wigan. Even a strong second half and the return of John Carew couldn’t break the visitors down. Still, Villa remain unbeaten in 12 league games.

Welcome to Emile Heskey

Emile Heskey signs a three and a half year contract in a £3.5 million switch from Wigan, but he’s never been without his detractors. So, what can he do for Aston Villa??

Liverpool or Everton in The FA Cup

Aston Villa will face either Everton or Liverpool in the 5th Round of the FA Cup should they successfully navigate their way past Doncaster Rovers. As the fixtures pile up it looks likely that MON will soon be forced to make some tough decisions.

Doncaster Rovers 0 Aston Villa 0

Lady luck failed to make her end of game appearance for Villa and Doncaster have earned themselves a trip to Villa Park in February. These are the games the FA Cup can create. Nothing to be overly concerned about, but little to be overly excited about either.

Heskey's Coming… Quick, Look Busy!!

Heskey’s name has been linked with Villa Park for a while. Today the rumours of an imminent signing flew around the interwebz. Still yet to be confirmed officially, The Sun are reporting it’s a deal. Gulp.
