Given that this weekend has focused the mind on the fact that Villa Fans are all born within the shadows of Villa Park or at the very worst inside the No11 route, why was my copy posted from Wales and not inner Brum? It proper confused me, I do that middle aged thing where I try and anticipate what's inside an envelope for a few moments before I open it.
Anyway it was a nice surprise and a good issue, one of the most optimistic for a couple of years.
