The same team which served up Tuesday's shit? ;)
-
Come on Villa.
-
The same team which served up Tuesday's shit superb opening 8 minutes? ;)
FIFY

The same team which served up Tuesday's win? ;)
-
Come on Villa, we can go 6 points off the play-offs with a win.

Is it on internet radio anywhere? Im enjoying the sunshine but would like to listen in.
-
Any links for today? ;)

Is it a full house today?

Genuinely don't see a play-off place an option, so at this stage it's just nice not to be shit for a while. The turnaround will hopefully continue (how long can a 'turnaround' actually go on for..?) and a top 10 finish would be great.
Draw today though, I reckon.

Its on radion wm but not sure they do the whole match online
-
Aren't this lot the ones who play music the millisecond they score?
Hopefully no music there today! Come on Villa!!

He is simply unstoppable
-
That was for Brian, I'll be in trouble, but it's his birthday.
-
We're starting to get going in games faster. Very encouraging. Now just need to keep up the momentum. That's been the biggest challenge.
-
He is simply unstoppable
He is simply irreplaceable right now.

Come on Villa, great start build on it.
-
And our neighbours are losing.

Unfortunately

The noses are doing their best to make it hard for us. They've just scored an own goal.
-
Happy Birthday, Mr Green.

Promotion to the PL is the only objective next season. The money is astronomical. A strong defence, and a player of Kodjia's ability up front will go a long way to getting us back up. No offer outside of the utterly ludicrous is worth entertaining.
-
Probably the end of the scoring for the day and another 1 - 0 victory for the boys
-
And our neighbours are losing.
Unfortunately
We don't need to worry about Derby yet. :)
-
Happy birthday GoM.
-
I'm starting to feel like I'm in a low-self esteem relationship with Kodija where I'm panicking more and more about him leaving me the more and more I realise what a catch he is.
-
And our neighbours are losing.
Unfortunately
We don't need to worry about Derby yet. :)
Norwich are 2 up against Reading.
-
What might go in our favour is that PL sides might not be blown away by his record in the Championship, reasoning that the likes of Hernandez at Hull and Gestede at Blackburn managed similar feats and couldn't make the step up. At £10-12 million he might be worth a punt, but we wouldn't sell for that.

Or Norwich. :)

I'm surprised you are here, I thought on a sunny day you'd be rewriting your A-Z VHS book.

Sorry but apart from the radio commentary, a crap FB live stream, there's not much else to talk about.
-
It's on.
Please believe it.

Preston are losing at Leeds.

I'm smirking to myself at the thought of us pulling this off.
-
Kod hobbling according to radio commentary
-
Kod having a sit down
-
Get him off, take no chances. Hogan on, see the game out, have him fine for next week.
-
Norwich 4-0 vs Reading.
-
Hogan on for Kod
-
Just a precaution substitution hopefully.
-
As long as we win and Wednesday don't. It will be a good day whatever the other results.
-
Hogan for a hatrick?
-
Norwich 4-0 vs Reading.
Do try to keep up TV...its now 5

Reading have had 61% of the possession!

5-1 you're so one minute ago.

6-1 at Norwich

It's 6-1. Please keep up
-
So is the consensus that the Kodija injury didn't look too serious?
-
Seemingly we are exactly the same as we have been recently. Good start and fuck all since.
-

On the radio, they said he walked off ok, had continued playing but was was feeling his thigh, and it looked precautionary. Fingers crossed
-
Not heard "eazee ozee" before but the co-commentator is fond of the phrase
-
The link to Paul on Periscope has stopped - anyone got another link?
I love the habit we're getting of scoring early. Anyone know whether Kodjia's injury looked serious?
-
Official site live

Need Ipswich to pull their socks up.

Couldn't get that to work. Logging in but all I got was a spinning wheel.
The 'Paul' radio thing worked fine for me all first half
-

Just Refresh. It's working fine for me.
-
Can't wait for the second set at Norwich.
-
Any Kodjia update? It looked to me like he took a knock to his left thigh on Tuesday night too.
-
Ref Kodjia: we won't get much of an update mid game folks.

Thanks for that, sounds like it shouldn't cost him any future games.
-
If Newcastle beat Wednesday today (they need to for their own title hopes), and the results pan out in a similar fashion to the way they are, we'll be 7 points behind Fulham, still needing to play them, with 6 to play. It's possible. Unlikely, but possible. This Reading game in a week became even more huge than it already was.
-
on the back foot a bit here!
-
We're still struggling to pass the ball.
-
FFS Amavi good chance missed
-
I can see Burton getting one.
-
Didn't realise that Michael Kightly was playing for Burton. Thought that he was a good prospect a few years ago
-
Jack coming on
-
With Kodjia off all we need is Elphick on and 1-1 is a given. Hogan will score two more though. 3-1.
-

Is he the Riverdance bloke?
-
Oh shit
-
Bugger....Burton score
-
Bollocks.
-
Pathetic. No fucking tactics at all.

Scored the goal that looked like it would screw us a few years back before Lowton's wonder goal.
-
here we go! we'll lose this now!
shitty music louder than the crowd!
-
I think the mathematicians can put their calculators away.
-
Bugger
-
Oh FFS!!
-

I agree. We're not a sponge. Get a grip Villa.
-
Bruce out
-
How the f*** did we concede? Not acceptable. F O Bruce
-
Hutton shot blocked by a teammate
-
Time for these to earn their offensive salaries.
-
I think the mathematicians can put their calculators away.
Made me laugh, thanks.
-
poor!
-
We having a good spell if you believe BBC text
-
Amavi keeps missing chances
-
Come on ffs.
-
Bruce the saviour
-
I suppose we are due a draw.
-
Funny how a draw feels like a defeat!
-
Well that's our season over.
-
Blues losing to derby 2-1
-
Garbage. Lots of work to do in the summer.
-
Blues losing to derby 2-1
Ha! Apparently they dominated the second half.
-
The only thing to look forward to now is the possibility of nailing the Noses' lid shut.
