Aston Villa v Southampton Pre-Match Thread

Maybe Everton being closer to the sea is an issue?

But...but Wigan has a pier?

Cross city line not operating at least not in the south. Lines down at University.

Oh blimey, thanks for letting me know.

App shows they are still running but visual inspection confirms the same train has been sat at Northfield for at least 35 mins.

Trains are running on the Aston side of the line, it's weirdly quiet though, as if people haven't realised they're running.

Drive across was quieter than usual, which was nice.

Can't see past a thumping great win today. Four for us Watkins, Bailey, Mings and McGinnb and a clean sheet.
