41 Pts in 21 Games, Villa's Best Premiership Season Ever

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.

FA Cup 4th Round Draw

Villa’s scrappy 3rd round win against Gillingham earned us a place in the 4th round draw. And we won another away day to lower league opposition. Anyone else concerned that we don’t seem to turn it on against smaller teams these days??

Defoe Priced Out Of The Market? (except citeh)

Harry Redknapp is opening his big mouth again about potential transfer transactions. Now he’s claiming that Portsmouth want more than £20 million for Jermaine Defoe. Who’s got that kind of cash?? Well, Citeh obviously. 2+2=5??
