I didn't know Steve Evans was their manager. Suddenly it's a grudge match.

I caught a bit of his presser on yow tube and he was extremely complimentary about us as a club.

I was surprised to see that Danny Rose was playing for them, but turns out it's not that one. The real one isn't playing for anybody.

Is it possible to record (sky+) the match if I've left for the game before the red button coverage has started ?

Nothing to Villa, just general criminality and cheating

I think so, pretty sure the red button just takes you to one of the high numbered channels so you could record that.

Master Woodhall, please see Mr.Hankinson, Head of Geography, please, as he will point out that the Stevenage county bed fellow is Watford rather than Luton which is situated in Bedfordshire. However top marks for detailing Ashley Youngs birthplace, for future reference and in case of a devious Pub Trivia question he was a class mate of Lewis Hamilton.

Another non entity never heard of?
What's our issue?
Seems like a straightforward lower league manager.

Maybe click the link that was posted but short summary he was invovled in some pretty significant fraud and somehow managed to dodge jailtime.

Are you sure - 981 sounds like the kind of channel would give a 5 minute preview

Well it's set. And it wasn't tagged as 0898XXXX.com.  So we'll see after the game ! Assuming it's not one I just want to forget of course.

Didn’t know the red button stuff shows up as an actual channel.
FYI, just done a bit of digging and for anyone on Virgin Media it’s channel 991.
I’ve set it to record to watch for a second time when I get home…. Assuming it doesn’t turn out to be a banana skin!

Hmmm, more space now available on that box of yours?

Absolutely. Deleted the second the tv was turned on last night (for Happy Valley!).

Still as angry this morning. Next season we somehow need to communicate with Emery that the cups should be our HIGHEST priority - Fuck the league, we're not going to win it, give us a trophy and a day out at Wembley.
