It always amused me how in a 2-2 draw you only really see one of the goals well. "No - one's more surprised than they are when a Villa counter attack leads to an equaliser" No - one apart from the cameraman it would seem!

I want us to get to the Cup Semis (at least) every year. If our neighbours never get beyond the first round they compete in ever again that would not make me sad!
