Two coaches parked in front of where I was selling opposite the church and their fans alighted there. My mate has often questioned the wisdom of letting away fans off in this location and letting them walk past the Holte, and when he came along later and saw the now empty coaches parked up he questioned it again. “Bloody hell, they even let MILLWALL off there?!”

“Yeah, but they weren’t lads” I said, “just normal fans”.

He replied “Bloody hell, what a chance to batter them, why didn’t you phone me?”

He was kinda joking.

I sold just down from the away end yesterday. No problems at all. All those who spoke to me were sound.

We went past you in our taxi. You were crossing the road by Tesco around half ten. I think it was you anyway.

That would be correct. I'd just popped in there after chatting to CT and his posse.

The two blokes who bought H&V in error and them came back were both very polite

As well as big and well-built.

Dominated the game and were never under threat. We really ought to have put it to bed.

Thought we had a lot space second half as they dropped deep and again, we created a lot of good chances and should have scored more.

Green gave us more energy second half and Millwall were deep and compact. Our crossing was a bit wayward, but all in all a comfortable day.

Great to see a packed home end again for the 3rd game running.

I understand our owners (and one of their daughters!) were in attendance.

I felt we were playing within ourselves for most the game and even so could have had 4 or 5 goals to show for our dominance. Greene did add more energy but his crossing is awful. He took his volly shot well, had he hit it with the same accuracy as his crossing it would have ended up in the net.
Our target now has to be 15 league wins in a row.

First 20 minutes felt a bit like a pre season game, the atmosphere, the weather & our 2nd gear start.
Always felt like we were holding back a little but should have buried them second half, I just hope we can be clinical when we need to be especially if we are home in leg 1 of the semi.
Green really livened things up in the right when he came on for Albert who really didn’t see a lot of the ball, Davis also added something upfront as well.

Jedi made a couple of errors but made up for one of them with an absolutely brilliant tackle to win the ball back when all looked lost. 

Good day out in the sun, Villa Park is a great place to be lately.
