Can you please tell me where the picture of Villa Park with the tram in front came from?

Post by: Matt Collins on December 09, 2018, 07:09:27 AM: Agree on your final point

Last year, in my heart of hearts I just knew wolves and Fulham were better

Currently I don't think anyone is. So as a minimum I'd fancy us in the play offs we will surely be in

But I still think automatic is doable. I just can't see Leeds AND Norwich both sustaining this form, and on the evidence of recent games surely we can finish above Leeds, Boro or the baggies?

Kevin Richardson.

If you’re still wondering how the officials missed Friday nights well I reckon this one was worse. It’ll be on You Tube somewhere.
