Some of said at the time that home was the solution,sadly I don’t think it is now. It’s hard for me to say what the medals won mean versus what I know even one at home might have meant. What I do know in claret and blue he was a joy to watch. Not so much in sky blue. Such a waste of joy!

I hope you get to the final and as a fan would love an all English one. However the PL have refused us and even added a fixture during our CL campaign - I’m unapologetically being the above with the PL to be clear!

Premier League have made a rod for their own back with ignorant Villa decision Aston Villa objected to Tottenham's request to move their Premier League fixture at Villa Park

The Premier League have made a rod for their own back by granting Tottenham's request to reschedule their visit to #AVFC.

After previously refusing Villa's pleas for flexibility, the Premier League will now be expected to facilitate a raft of requests next season and beyond...

Premier League confirm controversial Aston Villa vs Tottenham decision Aston Villa will host Tottenham on Friday, May 16 at 7:30pm live on Sky Sports

The Premier League has brought forward Aston Villa's clash against Tottenham by two days, rescheduling it for Friday, May 16.

Villa believe the decision to accommodate Spurs sets a double standard, particularly as their own requests for scheduling flexibility were previously denied.

#AVFC

Would be equally hilarious & damning if Spurs lose to Bodo/Glimt. #AVFC had 5 games in 13 days (the PL decided to throw in Liverpool for good measure) and even last year, in the Conference League, other teams had favours from their domestic league (Lille), yet Villa had nothing.

Absolutely disgraceful fixture change when Aston Villa were not allowed the same courtesy!!

All Aston Villa fans pay close attention to this. If the PL even dare acquiesce to this request when they wouldn’t facilitate Aston Villa there quite rightly should be uproar!!

I was calm all day, the Disasi loan was never in doubt!! 🤪🦁 Already a legend for repeatedly telling Spurs to f*ck off!! UTFV

Would be nice to take at least one of the cups seriously!

Maybe not from the clubs point of view - maybe try and get a fuller attendance in what otherwise might’ve been patchy. I appreciate that ticket prices already reflect this.

@JPercyTelegraph: Boubacar Kamara is the Aston Villa equivalent of Rodri to Manchester City. Arguably Villa’s most important and underrated player, Kamara is utterly essential for Unai Emery. What he brings to Villa and why he’s crucial to their season #avfc

I said before the game would take a scrappy 1-0 and that’s what we got - in fairness though at least another chance should have been taken. Anyway 3pts - UTV

@skysportpl.bsky.social

Is there any point @SkySports tuning in at 1pm for coverage of @ChelseaFC v @AVFCOfficial - yep thought not! In the @LFC dugout talking about that game 3hrs before KO ffs

Child of the lights: supporting Aston Villa and a football upbringing between eras Finding football on a historical fault line

This week's free newsletter is about growing up as an Aston Villa supporter straddling modern football's great historic dividing line.

Have a look.

I’ve a good feeling maybe based on wishful thinking - but I think you are right there is or should be more pressure on Juve than us - UTV

I know recent results / form are good reasons for caution - I’m not a blind optimist but a massive CL night under the lights at VP anything can happen especially if we can find a bit of fluidity that’s been missing - UTV

I think it was the Brighton home game Unai 1st season a Belfast and Dublin flight arrived at BHX more or less at the same time both flights almost exclusively Villa fans - great to see - UTV

I’m usually quite circumspect but I have a good feeling about tonight - whatever happens another massive CL night at VP - UTV

Totally agree - but on the evidence of Saturdays performance could be a big ask. That said we are due an upturn somewhere - UTV

Take 1-0 but form suggests we will concede and so 2-1🤞

It’s match day - thinking about previous performances/results. For all kind of reasons 3pts is really big today if we can. VP get behind the team. #UTV

“I think Aston Villa are a good team. They are in the mix to get into the top four, which is where I thought they would end up. I know it’s not been great the last week or two. I would be very happy if I was a Villa fan for where they are.”

Blue sky Villa join P9 for Brentford #avfc #AVFC

Trying to control games - especially against transitional teams - too many unforced errors / balls not quite finding feet in the middle and we are turned. Watkins opportunity could have changed complexion of games - he’s not taking them?

Get everyone over here - love the pod!

I’m hoping it can become what twitter once was informative with a decent exchange of views
