Bournemouth, Brighton, Brentford killing it and are examples to be followed and strategy to be pitched at higher levels. Seems like we've just done a Man Utd speedrun, but at least they are winning and scoring now 😭

I'm thinking about (maybe) bringing a second writer into @astonvillareview.com

Might not do it. Don't know what the terms would be. But there it is.

Very rare that a Villa match is an utter waste of time post-2022. That was one of them.

100% but I do think Gordon scores or troubles us if he's through. Id take that red card

Was shocked that our pass completion rate was above 60% it looked like we made 12 passes the whole game

Villa Vs Toon:

The Good:

12:30 kick off so it's over already.
A point again
The video of Unai crossing himself
Bizot

The Bad:

Had to wake up early
Was too hot
Every single pass
The ref
Red card

my fave meme this year is people getting massively into sabbath and believing they had this unique thought for the first time:

"wow it is like they played the blues but slower and heavier"
